Wow, Black Sheep Toy Store is in the news today! This time, actually offering something up for auction instead of just being a source for pictures. The latest loose offering from Black Sheep is the upcoming Duke with Reactive Armor. Maybe I’m alone in this, but I actually really love this look. Yeah, I like variety as much as the next guy, but as a fan of Sigma 6, I’ve got an affinity for this funky power suit appearence, and this version of Duke looks pretty damn cool. They managed to take an all black body suit and still make it visually appealing. I’m definitely not going to be buying all of the movie stuff, not by a long shot. But I’ll at least get the familiar cast of characters, and I’m looking forward to stocking my display shelves with these movie figures in their familiar on-screen look.
Check out the auction here, and check the mirrored images below.
Well, I knew the minute I saw the trailer for Resolute that I had to grab some screen shots so I could properly absorb the greatness. :shifty:
A large gallery is posted below. Keep in mind that the image quality ain’t great because the trailer was pretty small, but it’s something. There are some small details I personally missed in the initial viewing (like some ominous blood-covered dogtags…) and some other neat intricacies. Check it out below!
With a new film called Fighting on the horizon, Channing Tatum has been making the interview circuit, and the latest in line is IESB.net. The discussion is mostly about Fighting, and even about Mr. Tatum’s own production company, but they make some room to talk about the scale of the G.I. Joe film, especially compared to the smaller stuff that Tatum has worked with in the past:
Overseas eBay seller the Black Sheep Toy Store has posted another series of mint on card auctions for upcoming Rise of COBRA figures, and included in these auctions are some great, clear pictures of Duke (in Reactive Armor), Storm Shadow (unmasked), Sgt. Stone, and the Toys “R” Us Exclusive Firefly.
Check out his auctions here, or you can check out the images below.
Rich_JJ over at HissTank came across a short video on IGN with a quick snippet of a conversation with Channing Tatum about his role as Duke and the fight scenes in the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA. The person Duke fights against in the scene he mentions may surprise you! Check it out below:
