I’ve been a bit behind posting some news updates as I had to go through a marathon 25 hour laptop upgrade project for work over the past two days, but hopefully I’ll start catching up. First order of business is that for longtime Joe fans who are in love with the vintage look, Sideshow Collectibles continues to put out exceedingly impressive product. In the past two weeks, reports have come of the COBRA Trooper shipping to folks who ordered it, and just yesterday a poster at HissTank reported that Storm Shadow arrived!
These items are pricey, but they are fantastic, in my humble opinion. I’ve only had a chance to pick up Snake Eyes so far, but if he is any indication of the quality of these items, vintage fans are going to have a pretty sweet display shelf of 12″ greatness coming forward. In a recent Q & A, Sideshow even confirmed that they have a Battle Helmet version of COBRA’s notorious Commander in the works! Anyway, if you’ve missed out on any of this stuff, you haven’t necessarily missed the boat. Both items are currently sold out, but Sideshow’s wait list has given collectors some great second chances in the past. Click the banners below to get on the list for the COBRA Trooper and the Storm Shadow!

Over on JoeBattleLines, Mysterious Stranger has posted a great image featuring two of the excellent JoeCon Exclusive Crimson Guard paratroopers as well as the ever elusive San Diego ComicCon Sideshow Collectibles COBRA Commander. The end result is a whole lotta red that also set him back a whole lotta green. But the picture is absolutely bad ass.
Check it out below!

Day three at SDCC Sideshow Collectibles did their presentation, and has been kind enough to give some information about it on their website via streaming video! Included in this video are mentions of Firefly (with concept art), Premium Format figures and dioramas. Sideshow is expanding their license and doing it in a huge way.
To watch the video, click here, and I’ve also taken some screenshots that I’ve mirrored below.
