Okay, I wasn’t going to grab the Covert Operations Scarlett…I have the Desert Ambush version in her Reactive Armor (with the MUCH better head) so I felt no reason to get the one in her cammie jammies…well, until I saw some of Alexx’s damn pictures. He posted them in his usual spot on JoeBattleLines, and now I think I’m sold on this figure.

It’s not just the head swap either (though that definitely helps). It’s the range of motion, the accessories…it’s all really nicely done, even for a fairly dull BDU clad figure. I might just have to grab this one.

So it’s been a while since I’ve talked about Marauder “Gun Runners”, and I figure I’m way overdue. I’ve been reading joy all over the internets about finding Rise of COBRA toys, but I’ve also been hearing some complaints about the accessories and the weapon choices. Well, as usual, Marauder can come to the rescue.
It took me like 10 minutes to find guns that totally rock the Rise of COBRA figures, and I’ve showed a very small gallery of those below. Weapons used in the images are:
There are so many other cool weapons that I could have used as well, but these were among the first four I grabbed. Do yourself a favor…if you pick up some RoC figures and don’t like the weapons, take 10 minutes and hit up Marauder…it’ll make your life better!

With lots of reports coming of certain Targets breaking street dates, they have been hit pretty hard the past few days, but I’ve been reading reports that lots of Joefans are still coming away empty-handed. However, someone with a source inside Target reported last week that the Rise of COBRA “street date” at Target was authorized to be broken today. So even if your local Target didn’t have anything of consequence yesterday, you may want to check again.
I’ve gotten a personal report from Smokescreen from one-18th.com that his local Target was absolutely FILLED with product, and he picked up a number of figures he hadn’t seen at Toys “R” Us or Target yesterday, including Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow, Reactive Armor Duke and Scarlett, and COBRA Commander! So, keep on double-dipping Joe fans, it’s coming!!

We got a nice helping of five different character posters a little while ago scattered across several sites…well, that assortment gets an update of one today, as Scarlett is added to the list via an exclusive at Film School Rejects. This follows the trend of the other five posters, and I really love how they all came out! Great layout, lots of action…very cool.
The gallery of all six (including Scarlett) is hosted below.

Huge props to JoeCustoms member, DreamsJoes admin, and friend of GeneralsJoes, Dream for hooking me up with some great images of the so-far unreleased Resolute version of Scarlett! Included in these pics are some awesome comparison images of Scarlett and Helix. A lot of folks knew that they both shared the same legs, but what we didn’t know is that there were some subtle scale and size differences between the two.
Check out all of the awesome images below, and thanks again to Dream for hooking us up!
