« on: February 13, 2011, 03:51:46 PM »
Here are the latest Hi-Res images of the upcoming G.I. Joe figures, including some 12" figures at the end.  I gotta get me that Firefighter!




















And the 12" figures...

I'm liking the return to the 25th anniversary style, such as Barbecue, Sci-Fi, and crazy Legs.  I may have to pick those up when I see them.

Good eye on that gun Clint. They do that a lot with Joe stuff, making heads, weapons and other things that tie in with other movies. I think it is great. You really get a good deal with the Joes, look at all the extra gear and goodies that come with the figures. I use a ton of this stuff in dioramams. Very good point Pat they look more 25th stule to me as well. I will be getting several of these and saving money on the repacks they offer. I love the simplicity of that Storm Shadow, wonder how many of them I will find?

I could sure see the customs guys modding some of those heavy weapons for some clones, imps, or rebs thats for sure.

I am just as big a Joe fan as a Star Wars fan and this years figures are blowing me away!  That Techno Viper and Stormshadow alone are incredible!

Storm Shadow and Samurai Snake Eyes are a must. That pilot gear Cobra Commander's blaster looks like Boba Fetts holstered blaster. The Duke figure that is out now that has the rocket launcher backpack has a laser rifle that is exactly like the Marines in Starship Troopers. I like it because you can make customs that are based on different movies. As most of you know that Spirit Iron-Knife looks like Billy from Predator. Hasbro has definitely stepped it up with the Joe line.

If Hasbro were smart they would get some of their stores to have more Joe Pegs. My wally world doesn't have a single peg for these new figures and my larger store only has two pegs, both of which are bare.

I hear you there buddy. Target seems to always have a place on the pegs set aside for these but my walmarts have been lacking in this area. Such a good line. Why does there need to be 10-20 pegs set aside for iron man figures and only 3 for gi joe?

Well stated Clint and I agree. The Joe figures sell and in my area the IM just sits there.
