Sideshow Collectibles has posted their latest Q & A, and among the questions asked was the following:
“Is there any chance that Beachhead and Firefly can be made for the G.I. Joe series?”
“Yes! Both Beachhead and Firefly are currently in development for our G.I. Joe line.”
Excellent news, in my opinion. Both of these characters are very well suited to the fully-equipped, “macked out” 12″ Sideshow style. Can’t wait to see ’em! Click here to check out the full Q & A. Big thanks to sinchicken from JoeBattleLines for the info!

Wow. HissTank is scoring a coup today with a bunch of great pictures of some upcoming items including some never-seen-before Resolute themed action figures and some better images of Rise of COBRA figures we’ve seen before. Lots of gear is visible, and as always, the Resolute figures are absolutely blowing my mind. Check the links below for all of the picture goodness:
I just can’t stop drooling over those Resolute figures… wow. Amazing stuff.

It’s been a bit quiet on the loose figures front for the Black Sheep Toy Store, but he comes through in a big way today with some new auctions up (with some great images) for the Toys “R” Us Headquarters for Heroes Firefly and Rise of COBRA Cover Girl.
Images of these two very nice looking figures have been mirrored below. That Firefly is the BOMB. He’ll fit in seamlessly with the Resolute universe, especially with this guy’s armor.

Earlier this morning, we posted an image from HissTank that looked to possibly be a COBRA Trooper, but the figure appears to have a Joe logo on his shoulder armor. The identity of this figure and character is currently a mystery, however it is definitely based on the Resolute Firefly design.
Thanks to cmderinchief from Coil Club and JoeBattleLines, we’ve been able to gather down a pair of much larger, better pictures of this mystery figure, with and without the armor! Check it out below:
Now compare that to an image of the Resolute Firefly:
There are at least a few distinct similarities there. The lower “apron” has that same pouch on the belt, and the overall armor looks remarkably similar (although there are pouches rather than a strap). It’s currently unknown who this character is, if he’s a Joe or a COBRA, but whoever the character is, this figure rocks my world! It looks AWESOME. Gotta love the Resolute.

A forum poster over on ACToys.net has posted some new images of the COBRA Gunship and Steel Crusher A.P.V. These are loose samples with some angles that we haven’t seen before. The images are mirrored below, thanks to cmderinchief of the Coil Club and JoeBattleLines for the intel!
