This is music to my ears… Sideshow Collectibles posted their most recent Q & A, and featured a pair of G.I. Joe oriented questions. I’ve mirrored those questions below:
“I like the drivers in the 3 3/4 G.I. Joe line; are you considering characters like: Wild Weasel, Strato Viper, Heavy Metal, Keel-Haul, Steeler, Thunder, Wild Bill, Motor Viper,etc, etc.?
Can’t wait to hear more about Destro! Great news. Thanks to The Terror Drome for the information!

Hot of the heels of the Diamond announcement, Past Generation Toys has announced pre-orders for the upcoming 4th wave of G.I. Joe: The Pursuit of Cobra. These figures should be hitting very early 2011. The announcement can be read below!
Past Generation Toys has listed GI Joe Pursuit of Cobra Wave 4 as PreOrders. It’s due to be released in late January of 2011 and includes Destro v3, Low Light v1, Sky Dive v1 and the highly anticipated Shadow Tracker v1.

Damn. We should get crap like this more often. I’ve been really enjoying the character art on the packages of the Pursuit of Cobra toys, but a lot of it is obscured by the packaging itself, or just shot from the waist up. Well, Diamond Distributors has given us some updated information about a release timeline for the fourth wave of Pursuit of Cobra figures, and included with that some bad ass full body character art.
Awesome.
This is the text of the Diamond release details:
“POC WAVE 4:
For over twenty-five years G.I. Joe has been defending America and the cause of freedom from the evils of Cobra! Characters like Destro (Version 3), Low Light, Skydive, and Shadow Tracker enter the fight for the fate of the world as these 3 3/4″ figures! Blister card packaging.
Estimated ship date: 1/26/11″
With a ship date this early for the fourth wave of product, I would be shocked if we didn’t see something else hit next spring…perhaps an additional wave or something? Hopefully we’ll get more information soon! Thanks to SNAKE EYES from HissTank.com and The Terror Drome for this information.

I know I posted the Dusty review already, but now as the rest of Pursuit of Cobra Wave 2 has arrived at my doorstep, I’ll start pumping out those reviews starting with the Arctic Threat Destro!
Wave 2 really continues on the great trend started with Wave 1, and it certainly doesn’t look to be stopping. Check out the Pursuit of Cobra Review Page as I continue to post figure reviews through the week, and get those latest two Alpha Vehicles posted as well.

From someone who has a great perspective… over on HissTank.com, Gyre-Viper has posted a nice, in depth look at some of the differences between the pre-production and production versions of the upcoming Pursuit of Cobra Zartan and Destro figures. The images really lay out some of the obvious and subtle changes the figures made along their long trek to retail shelves.
I find this kind of stuff really fascinating, as you try and track down what changes were made, why they were made and what the differences are. So many things to consider that many of us don’t even think about.
