This time from the back! As usual, Toy News International and Geek Trooper are all over it, so big thanks to them for staying on top of this and keeping me in the loop. Check out the mirrored image below. Loving the trenchcoat, and really loving the detail on those sleeves. What a great looking figure.
For folks like friend of the site Arune Singh, who longs for a shirtless Lee Byung-Hun, this 12″ representation of the G.I. Joe: Retaliation Storm Shadow looks like he might be just what the doctor ordered. A promotional image circulating features a decent up close look of the upcoming Cobra Ninja, and it looks awesome.
Folks who like the movie appearance of Storm Shadow (and yes, I am one of them) this figure looks very, very cool. You can almost feel the depth and quality of the trenchcoat through the picture on the computer screen. Roadblock is featured in the image as well, though he’s a bit blurry and in the background. Big thanks to geektrooper on Tumblr for the heads up. The image is mirrored below.
Thanks to the numerous folks who sent along messages regarding this, apparently Hot Toys has sent out a promotional image featuring many of their 2013 products, and if you look real close, you can see the start of what appears to be a G.I. Joe: Retaliation Roadblock and Storm Shadow. At least, if you squint realllly hard.
First notifications came from Geek Trooper on Tumblr followed shortly by Kevin on Twitter and Toy News International. Check out the mirrored image below with a couple of arrows to help point out the suspects.
Along with BBTS, Sideshow Collectibles has also launched their pre-order for the insane Hot Toys G.I. Joe: Retaliation Snake Eyes. Check out the link below to grab it there, and I’ll be honest, I get a financial kick back for every item I sell through Sideshow Collectibles, so hey, use the Affiliate link and support the site!
Thanks as always!

The main thing catching my eye with the latest newsletter from Big Bad Toy Store is obviously the already legendary Hot Toys G.I. Joe: Retaliation Snake Eyes figure! The pre-order is listed at a hefty $184.99, but that’s still ten bucks off MSRP. Check out the pre-order info below, and click the Read the Rest of the Story link for the full newsletter. It also includes the latest Sideshow Premium Format “Classic” Baroness figure!

Even as my heart fell in love and my wallet screamed out in agony with the news of the Hot Toys G.I. Joe: Retaliation Snake Eyes reveal, Jay over at Entertainment News International was reaching out to Hot Toys to get more information, and he got it!
Word from Hot Toys to ENewsI is that there are three other Hot Toys releases planned for 2013, to include Joe Colton, Roadblock, and Storm Shadow! My first reaction is BOOOO no Cobra Commander, but my second reaction is YAY 12″ Bruce Willis! If these are popular, I’d expect more to follow, and hopefully those more include folks like Cobra Commander, Lady Jaye, Flint, and Firefly at the least.
I’m very interested to see how these end up… will Joe Colton be in combat togs, or in his fancy Secret Service suit? I imagine Storm Shadow will come with an unmasked and a masked head, will he come with his awesome white leather trench? So many questions…can’t wait to find out the answers. Check out Entertainment News International for the info.
