by generalsjoes | Jan 18, 2013 | 30th Anniversary, G.I. Joe, G.I. Joe 25th Anniversary, G.I. Joe Collectors Club, G.I. Joe Convention, G.I. Joe Toys, G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, JoeCon 2013, Show and Convention Coverage
We’ve been waiting patiently…and here we go! The Convention Brochure for the 2013 G.I. Joe Convention is now online! And with the announcement of the Brochure, we now know some of the characters in the G.I. Joe “Nocturnal Fire” Convention Set.
And… oh wow. Ohhhh boy. This is… yeah. I’m smiling right now. Check out the snippet from the brochure below:
“Nocturnal Fire
G.I. JOE: Night Force is a covert unit specializing in nighttime
surveillance and defensive operations. Each team member has
been selected for their enhanced skills, sophisticated hardware
and advanced technology to surprise and vanquish any enemy!
This fan favorite and highly requested team contains several
of the classic Night Force members and some new additions
available for the first time in the modern era 25A style.
Our special edition Nocturnal Fire squad includes: Charbroil, Hit
& Run, Muskrat, Psyche-Out, Repeater and Spearhead with Max
(NEW Bobcat).
The Cobra Demolitions Team is ready to take on any obstacle
that gets in their path of destruction. Led by the mysterious Cobra
Mortal, he employs Cobra Letal and the deadly saboteur Crimson
Asp (NEW female character). Their specialized troopers include:
Cobra Frag-Vipers x 3, Cobra S.A.W.-Vipers x 3.”
Did everyone see that? Did they see that?!? HIT & RUN!!! Woo hoo!!!! By and large, I love what the Club does figure-design wise, and they’re doing my favorite G.I. Joe figure ever? Sign me UP and let the speculation begin… could this possibly be the Concept Case 30th Anniversary Hit & Run we were all drooling over last year? Or was all of that drool mine?
Repeater?? Psyche Out!? Muskrat and Charbroil? Awwww, hell yeah… these are all awesome characters, and yeah, while I’m sure many fans are hoping to get them in “normal” uniforms eventually, most of them look pretty boss in their Night Force togs as well. Good stuff. Not to mention a brand new Crimson ASP female character, Frag-Vipers AND SAW Vipers!? Cobra Letal is the logical choice to lead the Frag-Viper team as well. As for Cobra Mortal, interesting choice. Let’s see how they pretty him up for the modern era.
Hit up GIJoeCon.com to keep up with the latest intel and the Convention Brochure with full details can be found right here.
I’m gonna be smiling for the next 2 months. Bring on April!

I think most of us appreciate and understand the geek cred that USA Today writer Brian Truitt brings to the table, and today he’s giving us another gift in the form of an exclusive sneak peek at the upcoming Cobra Files G.I. Joe comic. Along with the flagship title and the emergence of G.I. Joe: Special Missions, IDW’s Cobra themed book is getting a new issue #1, but beyond that, not a whole lot is changing, according to writer Mike Costa.
He has a great interview with Brian Truitt and talks about the make up of the team (pretty much what we see already… Chameleon, Ronin, Flint, and Lady Jaye) and how he likes to play in his little corner of the world.
It sounds like more obscure Cobra characters are in the wings, something I’m exceptionally happy about. I’ve been extremely pleased with pretty much every single thing that Costa and Fuso have done with the Cobra book ever since the beginning, and I’m thrilled that it’s maintaining status quo with this new thematic shift in the mainstream G.I. Joe universe.
Take a peek at this great interview and sneak preview over on USA Today, and to keep up to date with all the latest geek happenings, follow Brian Truitt on Twitter.

We haven’t heard much about the G.I. Joe Micro Force figures, but they are now rearing their tiny little itty bitty heads. According to TheRealDubya on HissTank.com, he has found the Micro Force figures at a local Fred Meyer. They clock in at $2.99 for a blind-bagged 2-pack.
Mirrored images are below, and you can see a gallery of the Micro Force figures from JoeCon at the bottom. What do you think? Any interest, or are you saving your cash for G.I. Joe: Retaliation stuff?
