In what seems to have been a forever-long wait, Big Bad Toy Store has finally posted pre-orders for the upcoming G.I. Joe: Resolute 7-Packs! Woop! Check out the links below and grab ’em before they’re gone.
Hot Damn! Big thanks to Mysterious Stranger for the heads up!
Big thanks to Wild Weasel from The Terror Drome who managed to dig up some auctions on eBay featuring images of the upcoming Pursuit of Cobra Mech Suits! While I try to avoid revealing the overseas “gray market” auctions, when new images are a part of the package, I’m all in.
Check out the great box images below for the Steel Marauder w/ Kickstart, and the Cobra Deviant w/ Cyber-Viper!

A few folks have kindly let me know that my G.I. Joe: Pursuit of Cobra SuperPage was a just a little bit out of whack, so I’ve cleaned it up some. I added a link to the old SuperPage, so folks can compare and contrast with what got phased out, and see how things have changed for 2010.
Also, due to some brain numbness on my part, I forgot to put in the two Mech Suits, so I added them as well.
Check out the adjusted page right here. It’ll be interesting to see how much it changes after the Con next week!
SNAKE EYES from HissTank.com is reporting that Diamond Comics has posted images and release information for the upcoming first assortments of G.I. Joe: The Pursuit of Cobra. We knew that these would be coming out in the “fall”, which in toy retail world means in time for the August shelf resets. Diamond is saying their release dates for all of these first assortments is July 28, 2010.
While we were all pretty comfortable knowing that these toys were coming, it’s awesome to see an actual physical release date. Check out the mirrored images and details below.

Remember a few days ago when I mentioned that it looked like the floodgates might be opening? Well, they’re still open, and Gyre-Viper is there collecting it all. He posted a few updates at HissTank here and here with some very cool pictures of upcoming items, and cancelled items.
I’m especially loving that Alley-Viper. LOVE the fact that he has the Resolute headgear as well as the more standard stuff. Very cool looking items here. Three more weeks from today and we should be seeing a lot more at JoeCon. Check out the mirrored images below, and once again, a huge thanks to Gyre-Viper for keeping the “dead time” between toy releases fairly eventful.

So as I was working through my last post about Action Force and Palitoy, tkprime over at the MS Gulf Coast Collectors’ Club jumped on my Facebook page and reminded me of some very cool diorama projects they have going on using some of the parts and pieces from some old Palitoy playsets.
Using the templates from the Palitoy Death Star and the Action Force headquarters, he has done up some very cool G.I. Joe themed designs for a custom Terror Drome and Adventure Team Headquarters! Designed to be printed on foamcore, or some other rigid material, these can be printed out and built according to included instructions, and the surface scans are VERY high resolution for amazing detail.
These are absolutely insane. A great resource for diorama fans, or even fans of some of those old school 80’s playsets.
I have mirrored a selection of low res images below, just because my gallery can handle all those high-resolution images, but you should absolutely hit the MS Gulf Coast Collectors’ Club forums at the links below to download the original high resolution images! These do not look all that complicated, and they look like they could provide some great display space. Just imagine your newly acquired Collectors’ Club Adventure Team figures hanging out in a brand spanking new Adventure Team Headquarters! Check out the links below, with some mirrored images as well.
