Wow. The hits just keep on coming for Ross stores… on the heels of the surprising find of the believed to be canceled Wave 3 Target Exclusives, Phil, a contributor for YoJoe.com has stumbled upon something even more shocking.
The Night Raven repaint revealed at SDCC in 2009, labeled as the “Sand Serpent”! Like the Target Exclusives, Hasbro reported this item as being canceled, but again like the Target Exclusives, Ross begs to differ.
Purchased for an astounding $15.99, here’s yet another thing to send Joefans scrambling…either for their nearest Ross store, or for their nearest buddy who might live NEAR a Ross Store. Kudos to Phil for finding this!
I’ve received some corrected information in regards to my Wave 4 Pursuit of Cobra reviews from various different sources, so I just wanted to say “thanks”! and point out the added info.
In my review of the Wave 4 Low Light I indicated that he had new arms. This is NOT the case. His arms are, by and large, the arms from the PoC Jungle-Viper, but the forearm pegs of the Jungle Viper have been replaced by new forearm pads with the smooth texture.
Also, I received some complaints about the lack of a goggled picture of Low Light, which for some reason I forgot to include in the review. Well, it’s now been posted, so check out the review again, or just check out the image below.
No scattered reviews this time around…we’re diving right into the whole assortment!
My G.I. Joe: Pursuit of Cobra Wave 4 figures arrived very late Friday evening, and I spent several hours this past weekend diving right into reviews. I know I’ve been accused of hyperbole in the past, but I will say without hesitation that these four figures are among the coolest figures in the entire run of the Pursuit of Cobra line, and with a toyline like this one, that is really saying something.
These figures are awesome. Simply awesome. Check out the Pursuit of Cobra Review Page or hit the links below directly:
These are four excellent figures. It really makes me look forward to seeing what Hasbro has up their sleeves for 2011. Based on how much they’ve improved over the past 12 months, I can only imagine what greatness we have in store for us over the next 12.
We had a little bit of a delay this week as my DVR choked and I had to wait until the 11:30pm repeat before watching the episode, grabbing the video, and writing up the review. I think the turnaround time was still pretty damn good. 😉
Check out the G.I. Joe: Renegades Episode Guide, or just hit up Episode 8 “Rage” directly right here. Lots of very cool Easter Eggs for Joe fans in this one. Enjoy!
So, thanks to a glitch in my DVR, I haven’t yet had a chance to watch Episode 8, but plan to in 30 short minutes. I was able to get a nice promo video for Episode 9 captured, though, while I waited! Featuring a totally reimagined Zartan and some fast-moving Dreadnoks, Episode 9 “Dreadnoks Rising” airs next Friday at 5:30pm Eastern.
Check out the embedded video below!
Keep your eyes on the Renegades SuperSite as well, as I plan on getting up a review and entry for Episode 8 as soon as I am able. May not be until some point tomorrow, where I’ll try to balance NFL Playoffs with G.I. Joe…two of my favorite hobbies!
Just arrived at SmallJoes, the fourth wave of G.I. Joe: The Pursuit of Cobra! Every one of these figures is great, so I highly recommend picking up the set of four. A great price and there are no bad figures here.
All of the links are below:
My figures should be arriving in my mailbox today. Can’t wait to tear into these things and get reviews posted! Keep your eyes on my Pursuit of Cobra Review Page to see when the reviews get posted!
With a delay likely due to the holiday, the latest two episodes of G.I. Joe: Renegades have now been uploaded to Hubworld.com! Largely regarded as two of the best episodes so far of the season, the Homecoming 2-Parter features action, easter eggs, and a few very cool character cameos.
The best part, to me, about this is seeing the episode in high resolution. I gotta say, it looks really great on the Hub website. Much better than even on my HD TV.
Check out the two episodes at the links below:
Also don’t forget to keep your eye on the Renegades SuperSite which has an episode guide, character rundown, and many other great Renegades rich features that fans will love.

Thanks, as usual, to kennywr22 for passing along the latest intel on upcoming G.I. Joe: Renegades episodes set to air over the next month or two. I’ve been keeping close tabs on both TVGuide.com and MSN TV Listings, but as of last night, nothing was updated. Today, they have been!
Courtesy of TVGuide.com is the latest episode description for Episode 10: Busted.
“Duke is arrested while buying parts for the Coyote, and the Joes have to break him out of jail before others can find him.”
Over on the MSN TV Listings, we get titles for the upcoming 12th and 13th episodes of G.I. Joe: Renegades…the titles are Firefight and Whiteout. So far these fall in line with the news from IMDB which revealed nearly all titles for Season One. Renegades returns this Friday! I cannot wait.
