Along with the images of upcoming vehicles on HissTank.com, toyssir898 also comes through with quite the coup! We get a very detailed look at the apparent upcoming SDCC Destro 2-pack featuring a movie-accurate Destro in full business suit as well as one of his ancestors with his own unique mask and set of weapons. What a GREAT looking set…I have a feeling this one is going to be damn tough to get a hold of after the fact. Check out the original HissTank thread here, and the images mirrored below.

Hisstank newcomer toyssir898 is already making a splash by posting some images of upcoming vehicles for the Rise of COBRA toyline. These all appear to be repaints and/or retools, but for the first time we get a look at a red repaint of the Smokescreen Sky Sweeper, a plane from several years ago. While the plane is nothing to write home about (it’s basically a badly squished Stealth F-117) it appears to come with a nice homage to the vintage COBRA Aero-Viper. This is the same Aero-Viper we’ve seen images of before. Click here to check out the thread, and the images are mirrored below.

More upcoming product images have been showcased on ACToys.net. The Wal-Mart 2 packs feature Gung Ho vs. Copperhead, Shockblast vs. Night Creeper, and Tunnel Rat vs. Monkeywrench. I love that Hasbro is using the Night Force color scheme on these…very cool. I won’t complain a bit about the Resolute themed Gung Ho either…not to mention that cool as hell Night Creeper. Images are mirrored below!
Thanks to cmderinchief of JoeBattleLines and the Coil Club for the intel.

Canadian television station “Space” visited the Canadian JoeCon in Hamilton last weekend, and has put the clip online! Featuring many “friends of GeneralsJoes” throughout and even interviewing some of them, the feature does a nice overview of the current state of the fandom as the movie release looms three short months away. Get some great shots of the sales floor, some interesting insight, and hear the weakest “Yo Joe” I’ve ever heard in my life… :shifty:
Seriously, check out the clip here!

Fans of the Sigma 6 style of action figures looked upon the Action Battlers with particular scrutiny, hoping that just maybe they might somehow integrate into the Sigma 6 universe. Alas, that is not the case, but the exaggerated animated style is still somewhat of an appeal. GeneralsJoes contributor Jeff Bohn got his hands on an early sample of the Action Battler Storm Shadow and shares some nice images with us.
