It’s official…after much inquiry of retailers and wondering, Hasbro PR has responded to fan questions about the RoC street date:
“G.I. Joe Fans:
As if celebrating the 4th of July weren’t cause for enough excitement, imagine having early access to a slew of G.I. JOE: The Rise of Cobra figures and vehicles. Well, your wish is our command.
Hasbro is pleased to announce that the first wave G.I. JOE: The Rise of Cobra toys are going to begin to hit shelves ONE WEEK EARLY, starting Monday, July 6th.
Beginning this Monday and rolling out throughout next week, your favorite retailers will be adding G.I. JOE: The Rise of Cobra figures and vehicles to their stores. This is your opportunity to be the first to get your hands on these highly anticipated toys.
If you could help us spread the word to other G.I. JOE fans, that would be great.
Thanks and have a terrific 4th of July weekend! Yo Joe!”

Sideshow Collectibles is proud to announce their “Let Freedom Ring” event, and has announced their event here. Along with this event, they’ve shown a product “tease” for an upcoming 12″ figure, and the character is pretty much a no-brainer.
Check out the image below, Sideshow promises to reveal the figure at San Diego ComicCon.
Thanks to JT for his comments in the comment field notifying me of this!

I’m not sure how much I’ll be online throughout the day, but Sideshow’s Twitter feed just revealed that “Our newsletter will be full of exciting news about G.I. Joe, Marvel and much more! Be sure to check-it out later today!”
So any Sideshow Collectible members, keep your eyes open for the newsletter today. I’ll report on the findings here as soon as I get them! Sideshow is one of those things that I am currently loving from afar. I got my hands on a Snake Eyes, and I LOVE it, but I haven’t been able to squirrel away enough cash to think about getting any others at the moment. Still, though, I look forward to any news about future releases, hopefully we’ll hear something cool today.

As more information continues to trickle out, I’m doing some needed revamping to the Rise of COBRA Toy SuperPage. In the past couple of days I’ve made the following changes:
- Added images for every single assortment, most of them carded
- Separated “Collection 2” into the two separate waves based on retailer information from JoeSightings.com
- Added various items for Exclusives, Vehicles, etc…
- Added some Speculative listings for potential future items that have yet to be confirmed.
Check out the SuperPage here! Thanks to everyone who has offered some help, and please let me know if there are any missing pieces.

OreoBuilder, a member of JoeCustoms.com from Canada has gotten his hands on some Rise of COBRA toys a bit before the rest of us, and has posted some great pictures of the figures. Check out the original thread here, and the images mirrored below.

Just went through and totally overhauled the Toy SuperPage based on some leaked info by BigBadToyStore.
I had a lot of the info correct, but I made some minor adjustments (mostly for future releases) based on what they have in their system. Check it out here!
