Toys “R” Us Exclusive “Bench-Press” revealed at SDCC

Following up on last night’s promise, madmac41 at GeneralsJoes sister site JoeBattleLines has posted images of the upcoming Toys “R” Us Exclusive single packed Bench-Press figure.  We have carded images as well as a picture of his filecard.  The character appears to use Rock n Roll’s filename with a brand new character attached to it.  For months, Brendan Fraser has mentioned that his character in the Joe film is a descendent of his character in the Mummy…could this be him and not Sgt. Stone?

We’ll all find out in a couple of short weeks.

Who is “Bench Press”? Another new TRU exclusive to be revealed at SDCC…

Over at GeneralsJoes “sister site” JoeBattleLines, it’s being reported that another single packed Toys “R” Us exclusive has been placed in the case at SDCC, but no images are available yet.  Alongside Snow Serpent is supposedly a new G.I. Joe trainer named “Bench Press”.  According to Nomad who is in San Diego, Bench Press “is a ground pounder and the team’s physical trainer. He’s a big built guy (possible Heavy Duty parts).”

We’ll wait on pins and needles for pictures, and a huge thanks to Nomad and LeonardoTDragon from JBL for the info!

SDCC Update – Toys “R” Us Exclusive Rise of COBRA Snow Serpent

NSA, the admin of Fighting118th.com took another trip by the Hasbro booth today at San Diego ComicCon, and noticed a new addition…an apparent Toys “R” Us Exclusive single-card Snow Serpent in unique Rise of COBRA colors!  Awesome!

I’ve mirrored a couple of pictures below, but there are more fantastic images at the source…these guys really know how to use their camera, definitely check their site out for some of the best pictures of SDCC I’ve seen on the ‘net.

Whopping four and a half minute clip for G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA

Holy crap.  You know I wanted to post the following headline:  “Absolutely totally mother#$@Q! insane four minute clip” but I decided against it.  YouTube user vincent26523 has posted a rather long segment of the Paris Pursuit chase scene from the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA.  A word of warning – The clip is in French.  But it’s still a helluva fun 4.5 minutes!  Stop reading and just watch it already!

The same user has also posted the previously exclusive to Yahoo! Movies clip on YouTube as well.  This one is in English.

Okay, I need to see this movie tonight.
