Several movie related sites are receiving a 2009 Summer Preview Kit from Paramount featuring their big-name summer films, including G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA. IESB.net has posted the results of the Preview kit including a high resolution image of Duke from the promo poster, and a brief “one sheet” about the film.
Check it out here.
Cmderinchief from JoeBattlelines and the Coil Club has posted some images of the recently revealed “Sgt. Stone” figure from the upcoming Rise of COBRA action figure line. Originally thought to potentially be a single card General Hawk, it was revealed last week that he appears to be a totally new character, and rumor has it he is the subject of Brandon Fraser’s cameo appearence in the film. Time will tell if that is truly the case.
At any rate, the images are mirrored below! Enjoy.
ACToys member sherwood has posted a few pictures of a loose Rise of COBRA Cobra Commander and the upcoming Headquarters for Heroes Toys “R” Us Exclusive Firefly here. This gives us our first real glimpse at loose samples of both of these figures. While I’m still a bit on the fence about COBRA Commander, that Firefly is just awesome. He looks to be a blend of COBRA Trooper (Resolute) pieces with some gear from Sgt. Airborne and the comic pack Firefly mixed in. A thing of beauty, and he’ll fit seamlessly with the rest of my Resolute figures. Loving it.
Thanks as always to HissCommander of The Terror Drome for the scoop.
HissTank forum member dcooper reports that Burger King will apparently be doing a promotion with G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA and offering toys related to the film through their restaurants. There will be toys and posters, and potentially some sort of “exclusive” to help drive up interest.

Video game site WorthPlaying.com has posted a trio of new screen shots from the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA video game by Electronic Arts. There’s no new information and nothing revolutionary in these new screens, but a new look at the game is always cool with me.
EDIT – Apparently these screen shots have been released to most major video game sites out there, WorthPlaying is just the first one I spotted them at…
