For a while there has been talk about the upcoming G.I. Joe Vs. COBRA: The Essential Guide from Pablo Hidalgo, and it turns out it hit retail quietly on July 7th. The book has a very strong focus on the core of G.I. Joe in the 80’s, pulling reference from the comics, toys, and cartoons, and even from the later Devils’ Due run as well. There’s fantastic art, tons of information, and lots to look at for any G.I. Joe fan. Check out the following links:
I’ve also mirrored some of the pages from the Suvudu article below. Check it out, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Another day, another daily Rise of COBRA review by Smokescreen, admin over at One-18th.com! This time around he covers the extremely awesome looking Paris Pursuit Storm Shadow. At first glance this figure looks rather superfluous, but after seeing him in action in various trailers and TV spots, this is a figure I GOTTA have!
Check out the mini hosted gallery below, complete with a link to the full review (which has a lot more pictures!). Good stuff.

Zak! Designs, which is a company who specializes in dinnerware and lunch bags is jumping on the “Rise of COBRA” bandwagon, clearly visible by their website here. As the months go on, fully expect to be absolutely inundated with G.I. Joe product from every aisle and corner of the store. I love this stuff!

Picking up where he left off with the Night Raven, Terror Drome staff member Dark 5cythe has come through with some very nice pictorial reviews of the Alpha class vehicles from the first assortment of The Rise of COBRA figures. I’ve mirrored a few of the images below, but also definitely hit up the links for the full allotment of images and the nicely written reviews!

The GIJoe Collectors Club newsletter has started to arrive in member’s home, and a small tidbit of information should make convention goers very happy. Folks who are fired up about the SDCC Destro (or the 12″ Baroness for that matter) but cannot make it out to San Diego will have an opportunity to buy the movie accurate Destro at JoeCon in August!
There is no indication of exactly how many will be available, but there will be something anyway. Good luck to all who attend!
