So how will you use this figure? An updated blueshirt? A Cobra urban assault specialist who compliments the Alley-Viper corps? From a recent article in the G.I. Joe Club Newsletter John Warden seems to indicate this is an upgrade to the traditional blueshirt, though in some ways he almost comes off a bit too realistic for my tastes.
That’s not to say this is a bad figure, though… you can check out the full review on the Pursuit of Cobra Review Page, or click the link below:

Now this is something you don’t see every day… Compulsive Collector is a Twitter regular, and a friend of GeneralsJoes… and his support for Toys for Tots is almost legendary. I see constant updates from him regarding purchasing items for Toys for Tots, donating items, and just supporting the cause in general. For toy fans, this is a terrific cause. I mean, we’re all where we are right now essentially because we either bought some really cool toys, or received them as gifts when we were kids. Imagine if your family didn’t have the money for these items? Imagine if you couldn’t buy that latest, greatest Snake Eyes figure because you simply couldn’t afford it?
Donating G.I. Joe figures to Toys for Tots not only ensures kids everywhere get some awesome toys, but it also spreads some brand awareness. Nothing wrong with that.
Compulsive Collector is going one step further…he is auctioning off a one-of-a-kind plush Cobra Commander. Yes, plush. He’s cute and wants to rule the world!

One more day, one more review of a G.I. Joe: Pursuit of Cobra Wave 3 figure. I’ve already covered Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes, this time around it’s super rocket-launcher Duke! Yes, he comes with a ridiculous shoulder-mounted ICBM system. But somehow he still manages to be a bad ass figure.

Following on the heels of the G.I. Joe: Renegades Tactics game (which to this point still seems to lock up on Level 5… grrrrr…) Hubworld.com has posted a new G.I. Joe: Renegades themed online game, this time of the puzzle variety.
Check it out right here.

Man… just when I’m starting to get over the awe of the Pursuit of Cobra Wave 3 Snake Eyes, and the guys over at ACToys go ahead and post a run of images for the upcoming Wave 4 Low-Light.
How the hell do the Hasbro designers do it? Especially the Joe designers? They are in a league all by themselves…with respect to other Hasbro properties, and maybe I’m biased, but it even seems compared to stuff like Marvel Universe and Star Wars, the G.I. Joe line is just blowing the doors off with the level of sculpting, detail, and accessories built into nearly every figure. I’m damn near speechless, and anyone who knows me knows that doesn’t happen often.
