Over on HissTank.com, they report that some images have appeared of upcoming Rise of Cobra releases, including a very mysterious Firefly/Elite-Viper hybrid that doesn’t fit anything we’ve heard of before. Tough to tell if it’s actually legitimate or not, but it is interesting to see it. The coloring is a bit lighter than the version released with the Gunship, and with that Elite Viper head, it could really belong anywhere…be interesting to see where this goes.
As for the other pictures, Ice Storm is still a pretty neat looking figure to me, and unlike many Joe fans apparently, I actually really like the red camouflaged Elite-Viper slated to come with the Trubble Bubble, too. Check out the images below.

We’ve seen enough of these images to really know what we’re getting with these sets, but the fact that we now have official pictures to show probably means these are on the verge of release. And as usual, these two vehicles add a sense of conflict… I love the Elite-Viper, but would have loved something NEW with the Elite-Viper…however, the Cobra vehicle is far superior to the G.I. Joe one. On the flip side, though, this strange amalgamation of Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes and the Commando Snake Eyes from Rise of Cobra at least offers some new elements, even if the end result is a bulkier version of the same figure. Bulk is exactly what that figure needed, though, so maybe this is a good thing?

Normally I might not cover this, but I’m pretty sure I won’t end up owning this set, so I figured it’s only right to give it some due publicity by showcasing Alexx’s latest photographic onslaught, this time focusing on the Wal-Mart Exclusive Ninja Battles set. Chock full of gear with some… “interesting” paint application choices, Alexx breaks down exactly what’s in the box and whether it’s worth your time.
The review itself is right here, but check out the images below.

In a move that seems to indicate that we’ll see these vehicles for sale online shortly, Target.com has posted entries for their second wave of highly anticipated exclusive mini-vehicles, including the Serpent Armor and Rocket Pack. Check out the links below.
Thanks to m6d for the information!

I had promised to get these posted last week, but Thanksgiving events postponed that somewhat…but better late than never, right?
Over in the Rise of Cobra Review Section I’ve posted reviews for both recently released Toys “R” Us Exclusive Troop-Builder 5-Packs:
There are more images here than you will see anywhere.
