Royal Purple website features some great information on Rise of COBRA vehicles

by | Jul 14, 2009 | G.I. Joe, G.I. Joe: The Movie

I think this website for the Royal Purple/G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA promotion has been up for a while, but for some reason, we’re just noticing the vehicles section.  But this vehicle section is absolutely bad ass.  It has some great images and details for the vehicles featured in the film, many of which we haven’t heard of before!  I’ve mirrored the images below for the following vehicles:

  • Brawler – An innocuous looking van on the outside, with high tech surveillance and weapons systems on the inside
  • Attack Helicopter – No name, just looks like a generic military assault copter
  • Howler – The VTOL troop transport that carries the Joe team through the air
  • RHINO – An armored Humvee looking thing
  • Rockslide – Familiar snowmobile attack vehicle that we’ve seen in toy form already
  • Scarab – The “Steel Crusher” going by its original name
  • Spyder – A very futuristic looking motorcycle (that looks a lot cooler than the upcoming “Snarler”)

The vehicles page can be found here with some nice details on these various weapons of war, and again, all images are mirrored below.

G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA International site sports fun for US-based fans, too

Seenit.co.uk has posted a neat little online training game at their site here, and when I checked it out, it kind of led me down the rabbit hole a little bit, and I got a chance to check out the G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA international sites…turns out there’s some stuff I didn’t see on the US-based site (maybe I just missed it?)  Check the links below for some neat games and other things:

  • G.I. Joe Training Game – Face off in stick-to-stick combat as a new recruit to G.I. Joe
  • G.I. Joe Fan Kit – Quite a bit different from the US-based fankit, it provides much easier access to many various icons, wallpapers, etc…

There’s also the “Make the Grade” quiz game that was featured on Seenit.co.uk that you can check out by reading the “Full Article” link right below:
