As these figures start trickling over from the eBay auctions, we’re getting more and more images of the Rise of COBRA Destro. JoeBattleLines stallwart, MaxPower has posted a bunch of pictures on this thread on JBL, and has also graciously allowed me to host the images here as well. Enjoy, and expect a full-fledged gallery and review once I get my own figure in hand.
Ever since ws_toys put up the auction for a supposed single-pack “General Hawk” figure, Joe fans all over the ‘net have been wondering if that’s what or who he really is. The figure looked very “non-Quaid” like and totally different than the Hawk that was coming with The Pit. Well, ws_toys has changed up his auction a bit, and now this same figure is being referred to as “Sgt. Stone”.
Who is this “Sgt. Stone”? Does he have a role in the film, or is he simply a totally new, random character? Is it supposed to be Flint, or some homage to Lt. Stone? This perhaps brings up more questions than answers, but regardless, check out the auction right here and judge for yourself. Images of this mystery character are below.
Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available!

Thanks to sinchicken of the JBL Forums for the news.
I’m assuming most folks know about the Jakks “Build and Brawl” wrestling figures that are coming in at a handy 3 3/4″ scale. Well, we’ve known for a while that Sgt. Slaughter was coming, and apparently, according to FireChief420 on JBL, he has arrived! He’s a bit small to fit in with a lot of the Anniversary stuff, but he will definitely do in a pinch. Very cool!
According to very reputable JoeCanuck forum member Storm Shadow, the M.A.R.S. Industries Officer and Trooper 3-Pack movie preview item has begun hitting retail in Canada! It was found in a Wal-Mart in the Fairview Mall in Kitchener, Ontario. Check out the thread here!
