Well, hopefully, anyway. The latest communication from the G.I. Joe Collectors Club comes in the form of an email received last night, which indicates that today could be the day we’ve all been waiting for.
“Hello all,
Barring any unforseen issues we will start registration on Friday, February 1.
If you can’t log in, check your log in at gijoeclub.com/shop. If you have expired, you will not
be able to receive member pricing.
If you are registering with another member, you will need their log in and password to receive
member pricing.
If you complete your order with non-member pricing, we CANNOT adjust your pricing. Please
understand what you are ordering and confirm the pricing before you check out.
Please take a look at the souvenir T-shirts, Hat and Beanie that you can add to your order at the end.
You will find pictures under the exclusives tab. The Night Force shirt and both hats glow in the dark.
If you have not read the brochure, please do so before you register as you have 8 minutes to complete
your registration before the system puts your items back into stock. You cannot hold them in your
cart longer than that amount of time, however you can start over.
Sets are limited and we cut the 12″ sets down by 1/3rd so they are really limited this year.
We do reserve the right to limit any member’s quantities if we deem them excessive.
Attending and Non-attending can both register Friday.
I’ll send out an email when the link is live.
Thanks for your patience, see you in Indy!
Brian“
So I hope everyone is camping over at GIJoeCon.com as the Golden Tickets and Con Sets should be selling out quickly. Next stop, Indianapolis!

Secret Mission to Dragon Island is setting itself up nicely to be a very cool 12″ set that continues the mythology of the 12″ Adventure Team line and brings it more in line with the Real American Hero universe as well. The G.I. Joe Collectors Club posted a few more images from this 12″ exclusive set to GIJoeCon.com featuring the terrific Hazmat suit for evil villain Sebastian Gorman. The suit features an awesome rendition of the Black Dragon logo that we’ve seen on various items since 2003.
Check out the update on GIJoeCon.com!

With the 2013 G.I. Joe Convention registration looming ever closer, the Collectors’ Club has finally begun posting previews for the sure to be fantastic 12″ Adventure Team Convention Exclusive set. Over the past several years, the greatness of these 12″ exclusives has been somewhat lost in the 3 3/4″ discussion, but it really deserves some focus.
This year we have an awesome set with a stealth jumpsuit, a tuxedo, and a pair of great looking 12″ figures. Not to mention, their nemesis is “Black Dragon” who Real American Hero fans will remember was the villain from the 2003 Operation: Anaconda convention set.
Check out the Adventure Team preview right here, and I’ve also mirrored some of the images below. Looking like a good start. Does that dude have a flocked goatee!??

So not only do we get Lady Jaye in attendance, but looks like Flint will be joining her in Indianapolis for the 2013 G.I. Joe Convention! Bill Ratner voiced Flint back in the Sunbow animated series, and has gone on to do a wealth of other voice work and production work in entertainment over the past several years.
It will be quite exciting having both of these G.I. Joe legends join us in Indy this April.
If you want to hear more from Mr. Ratner, be sure to check out What’s on Joe Mind Episode 70 where we spent about an hour talking to him. You can hit up the embedded player below as well. Make sure you continue to check GIJoeCon.com for the latest and greatest JoeCon intel!

We are two shipments deep into the Figure Subscription Service, and I’m finally getting some reviews in order. It was a dead time for so long with G.I. Joe items and reviews that I’m going to have to get myself back into the swing of things here.
Between the FSS and the sudden appearances of G.I. Joe: Retaliation and MicroForce product, things might get a little bit busier ’round here.
The FSS Reviews will all be found in my Collectors’ Club review area, and I’ve also linked them below. Pretty sure the first two are public knowledge by now, aren’t they? It has been almost a month…
