The JoeCon 2011 Dealer Room is open for preview, and Hasbro is giving out some freebies and talking shop.

The 30 for 30 campaign - not happening. Mis-spoke at Toy Fair. There will be a general 30th Anniversary celebration throughout the year though.

Freebies given out by Hasbro include a cardback for Zarana, hyping her appearance at SDCC, a Renegades poster, and a G.I. Joe Key Hook.

Sky Striker Wing / Landing Gear is CONNECTED like Old School. Confirmed by Hasbro Reps.

Next 2 POC Mech Suits are CANCELLED. One was Alpine.

Black HISS will be in POC packaging - aka whats out there already, only, unless demand makes them print more later. Right now, not happening.

Pics from the room will be coming in over the next hour or so, so stay tuned and keep checking back!

Hollywood Reporter has foundout that producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura, who produced all three Transformers Live Action Movies and the G. I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra is leaving Paramount due to a dispute regarding the new Director of G. I. Joe 2.

"Di Bonaventura, one of Hollywood's top producers, is said to have objected when Paramount insisted on installing Jon M. Chu (Justin Bieber: Never Say Never), who lacks action experience, as director."

Mr. Bonaventura is one of the aces in the movie business and an all-around nice guy, maintaining contact with fans.

It will definitely be a blow to the upcoming Rise Of Cobra sequel.

"The friction with di Bonaventura comes at a time when many producers--even those at the top of the A list--are finding the business increasingly difficult to navigate. Even the future of long-standing relationships--such as Jerry Bruckheimer's with Disney--is not clear.".

One point of contention for GI Joe Renegades fans was Storm Shadow's costume design. While perusing the displays at JoeCon 2011, DESTRO came across a poster displaying a new costume for GI Joe Renegades Storm Shadow. Could the Arashikage ninja don this costume before the conclusion of season 1? Furthermore, could a figure of this design be on the way? It's similar to the look of the 1984 version, but with gray trim on the gi and arm wrapping. Take a closer look after the jump!

Moviehole has posted an article which has revealed the following for GI Joe 2:
  • Filming in Louisiana starting in August
  • The cast is a mostly all new lineup of characters
This info emerged during a recent casting call for the movie. Speaking of new characters, one named Cross was mentioned; Cross Country anyone? More info:

One of those new characters is ‘Cross‘, described to agents as being ‘Male; 25-35 years old; any ethnicity; a soldier.’

Could it truly be Cross Country? Do you want him to be in the upcoming movie?

Thanks to sister site TFW2005 for reporting that 2005 boards member Monzo has just come back from JoeCon 2011 where he attended the "Treasures Of Hasbro Archives" panel, hosted by Rik Alvarez and other Hasbro employees such as John Warden. Alvarez revealed quite a surprising abandoned concept, a repainted Omega Supreme for a crossover line between Transformers and GI Joe! Here's more details:

"According to Rik, these are parts of an Omega Supreme that were redecoed and intended for release in the G.I. Joe toyline. In what manner, as a character or parts of a non-living vehicle, he didn't say; the phrasing of his following statement, where he was going to look into "an actual crossover between the G.I. Joe and Transformer toylines", makes the Joemega Supreme situation seem a bit nebulous."

That wasn't the only shocker. It turns out that at one point, the GI Joe Pursuit Of Cobra was actually going to have a female figure, paired with a Transformer too! This set was of Arctic Baroness With Ravage(or rather, Ravage but not Ravage):

"There were plans for an arctic Rise of Cobra Baroness figure that would have come with a robot panther companion -"maybe Ravage, maybe not" said Rik, but John Warden consistently denied that it was going to be Ravage. In any case, the use of Ravage design cues was intentional, though Rik sadly noted that the G1 weapons did not work with it.

They did not actually show any pictures of the Arctic Baroness, with the robot panther being photoed next to a test shot of Dial-Tone that Rik used for scale representation in every picture he took. Neither the Baroness or the robot panther were tooled, with the panther in the photo being the only one in existence.
"

With even more files to sift through in the archive, could we see more abandoned GI Joe VS Transformers concepts at Botcon 2011?

Well folks we've got some bad news, but great news too! Site sponsor Cobrastickers.com has posted their April update, and while there is a delay, we'll actually end up getting more stuff!

New Sets Delayed, New Sets Expanded

I would like to extend an apology to everyone who is anticipating the release of our new sets. I let the monkey push the button a little bit too early here in the Cobra Stickers Web HQ, but they're on the way.

With the bad news comes some good news: The launch will include more than double the number of new vehicles, some new factions, and some other neat surprises! Details coming soon.


Well there you have it folks! What could the crew at Cobrastickers.com be cooking up?

Over at our sister site The Toyark the staff has been doing extensive work behind the scenes, and today is the day where we get to finally reveal the fruits of our labor! The entire site has been given a facelift. There's more beneath the surface though, as the forum structure has been overhauled, with new features and more:

New Theme & Logo

We upgraded the color scheme and logo of the site. Now, you can actually see the whole thing . We've moved away from the red and black, as that's being used in other places around the network, and thought Toyark should have a feel of it's own. Say hello to Black and Yellow (and blue and gray)!

We also have put image links on the right sidebar to the core areas of the site - Marvel, DC, MOTU, Star Wars. Links to both news and the forums. Easy to jump in from anywhere on the site now.

We have also reverted to a more traditional forum layout. Name, Avatar on the left. System links up top. Login box on top right. Just like all the other sites you are used to.

New Forum Structure

News and Rumors

We have moved to a method for news, and discussion of news, that we use on the other network sites. There is now a Toy and Action Figure News and Rumors forum. All discussion related to news that shows up on the front page will be posted there. If you guys find news around the web, related to toys, you can start a new thread in there. We will scan that forum, and front page anything you find before we do, with credit of course.

One Line Per Thread


To help consolidate the scattered discussion around the site, we took a page from the TFW2005's "Mother Toyark" forum and created a "One Line Per Thread" sub forum. For each toy line, there will be one thread. This forum will be listed alphabetically, and all new threads will be moderated by staff before appearing. Don't worry, you can still use AFGD to talk about specific things, but we wanted to give this option for the casual fan who just wants to jump in and out on a specific topic, see some cool pics, and be done.

Featured Toy Lines and Properties

We have separated out what we think are the most important areas of the site: Marvel, DC, MOTU, Star Wars, Video Games/Movies. They are now under their own heading. On top of that, we have expanded their discussion scope. Now, in each of these, you can talk about ALL aspects of those lines. There are sub forums for Toys (same as before) Movies, Comics, and a GD for each. This will allow you to talk about everything Marvel, or everything DC, all in one spot.

Sightings

Sightings have been consolidated. There is one Sightings Forum, and each state has a thread. All toy lines should have their sightings posted in the thread for your State/Area. That way you can follow what's new and where for everything without having to bounce around.

Customs and Fan Art


Now have preview thumbnails when looking at the thread list. So make sure to attach at least one image if you start new threads in there, the people you want to see your stuff like looking at pretty pictures first!

Lots Of Other Things

We also did a lot of other less visible, backend, and small tweaking around the site. Nothing worth spouting off about. One thing of note though - we've pruned our users. All members imported from TFW2005 back in 2008 that have not logged in have been removed. We've also removed all members who signed up themselves, but haven't logged in for over a year. So our registered members have been thoroughly chopped down. But what is left is you, the real members of TOYARK. A clean fresh start for a new fresh layout.

We welcome anyone who had an account removed, or who hasn't signed up yet, to sign up today. You guys are what makes these places on the web special. Why not use this relaunch point for The Toyark to join the action and make us one of your regular stops on the interwebz.

As we kick off the weekend early with the relaunch of Toyark, we'd like to thank all of you for visiting here, and our sister sites!

We have searched the HISSTANK.com forums for customs of unproduced figures that have been posted up. Many of these are worthy designs for production. Feel free to discuss version types inside each poll thread.
