The MTV Movies Blog has posted their interview with screenwriters Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick, both of whom are writing G.I. Joe 2. Both writers promise that it won't ignore the events of the 1st movie and assure that
"...their “G.I. Joe” sequel will be something closer to the roots of the toyline." According to the article, both screenwriters were huge G.I. Joe fans while growing up. In addition to bringing in new characters, the writers mentioned other goals for the upcoming sequel: “We can say that we will be faithful to the first film,” Reese explained of their plans for the sequel. “We will not be ignoring events from the first in the second.” “It will be a sequel,” added Wernick. “It will be a continuation of 'G.I. Joe' [as it was established last summer].” “It’s hard to think of it being any bigger; that was a big movie,” Reese said of any pressure to top the first film’s massive action sequences. “They blew up a lot of stuff. We hope for it to be as fun, that the characters really pop. We’ll be introducing some new characters.” “We’re going out to Pawtucket, Rhode Island to the Hasbro headquarters next week,” Wernick said, explaining that the trip will help dictate who those new characters will be. "[We’ll] talk to the toy guys, take a tour of the facility, see all the old toys, the new toys and just get inspired.” “We’re going to be open to what they have, and we’re presenting them with what we have; it will be a meeting of the minds,” Reese said of the early stage in their script development. “This is a dream come true. If I could get in a time machine and go tell my 11-year-old self this he’d be dancing, running through the street doing cartwheels… ‘G.I. Joe’ should be fun, it should be a ride. That’s what we feel like ‘Zombieland’ was, and we hope to bring that to the ‘G.I. Joe’ franchise also.” With Wernick and Reese onboard, do you think GI Joe 2 has potential to be a better movie than Rise of Cobra? |

Sideshow Collectibles has posted a sneak peak at Zartan, but also states that he will not in fact, be the next Cobra figure announced! Zartan will be released later on, but who is the mystery Cobra figure to be announced next?
Here is a collector question from recent ‘Ask Sideshow’ submission, complete with a cool sneak peek!: What are the chances of Zartan being the next Cobra 12-inch figure? He has a lot of great guns and knives. Plus, maybe the first ever color-changing figure!! Even could have an exclusive mask! What are your thoughts? Yes, Zartan is in development, but he won’t be the next Cobra that you see announced. At this stage, we’ve completed some of Zartan’s elements (see below for a sneak peek), and we’re working on a few new and important body/armor elements that will be integral to Zartan and a few others. He’s a complex figure, and we’ll need a little more time before he’s ready to debut. Click on the thumbnail to take a closer look at the work in progress sculpt of Zartan! |

As reported by sister site Toyark, Pop Eater has posted the 1st look at new, upcoming Iron Man 2 movie series figures. One however, sticks out, not just because it's the 1st movie version of Nick Fury to be released(and can double as the version from The Ultimates), but also because it might actually be made using 25th Anniversary G.I. Joe parts! Beachhead specifically!
Later this year, you too, can now have the 1st GI Joe version of Samuel L. Jackson accompanying your Joes as they take on Cobras on a m%^&*()$%^&*( Plane! Maybe. Click on the thumbnail to take a closer look! |

Cobra announces CobraCon 2010 in Providence, Rhode Island Cobra Island – February 26, 2010 – Today, Cobra Commander has announced that Cobracon 2010 will be held at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence, Rhode Island from April 29th to May 2nd. Cobra wants to make sure that the fans of Cobra do not confuse this show with GIJoecon 2010, also being held in Providence, Rhode Island from April 29th to May 2nd. No, CobraCon will be FAR more exciting!!! Unlike last year’s convention (apologies again for the unexpected exposure of mind control gas at the Saturday Night Dinner event), this year’s CobraCon promises a smooth and relatively danger free show, complete with a special appearance by Black Major and his trusty comrades, the Red Shadows. Along with special guests, art contests, an invasion of Hasbro’s headquarters, panels and seminars featuring Hasbro and other Cobra supporters, this year’s convention is THE show to attend! So what are you waiting for! Just head on over to our convention site now and sign up for the Cobra event of a lifetime. NOW! Cobraaaaaaaaaaa! www.CobraCon.com. Be sure to click the page to see our latest CobraCon video! About COBRA For over 25 years, Cobra has been the leading international criminal organization, offering the whole of humanity the finest in criminal espionage, homicidal clones, doomsday scenarios and an alternative to the decadent and foolish governance of so-called 'democracy.' Located on Cobra Island and any number of small towns near you, Cobra reaches more people than any rival organization; with attacks on G.I. Joe and the many countries they help defend such as Japan, Great Britain, Brazil, Australia and Canada. For more information visit our convention site.
