A Casting Call Sheet for stand-ins of G. I. Joe: Retaliation reveals possible Cobra Commander.

The data from bathersoncasting.com tells us of a scene involving a Warden, Storm Shadow and unmistakably Cobra Commander. This may be a possible Prison Break scenario.

But the biggest question is, that few months back Joseph Gordon-Levitt said he won’t be the Cobra Commander… then who is fitting into Gordon-Levitt’s shoes?

"This all started when I put a Dusty head on the POC Snake Eyes and thought it would make a good Grunt. Early on, I really wasn't sure I would finish at all, and I certainly didn't think it would be done by the end of summer. Once I got going, though, I started to pick up steam. Thanks for all the compliments while I worked on this, they really helped to motivate me."

Joe 2 Retaliation. I don't know about you, but to me, she sure looks like a ringer for the Baroness! One can only hope they left "what's her face" back at the wig store.

Spoiler Warning: The following news article may contain possible scenes from the upcoming movie G. I. Joe: Retaliation.

Before moving on to the goodies, we believe a brief introduction is in order:

The casting site which revealed Cobra Commander’s involvement in the 2nd G. I. Joe movie now lists the wardrobe using numbers instead of addressing them with Character Names. HISSTANK wanted to take a look at who stands-in for whom by looking at yesterday’s page. “Google is your friend” so they say… and we thought of using Google Cache to read past web pages. Unfortunately, yesterday’s page was not there. Instead we were treated to a past page revealing even more info. We then used Yahoo, Bing and other search engine cache pages to obtain more scenes from the movie.

Due to spoiler reasons the content is kept off the front page… want to read more? Take a look, after the jump.

This week we are joined by HissTank.com honcho Fran (aka Destro) to talk to him about the New Jersey Collectors' Convention and learn a little history on how the HissTank Community got its start. Its an interesting interview - you should listen! Due to a slow news week, the team discussed many points of view while trying to answer Tim from KC's question about Hasbro distribution. Speaking of distribution, apparently it is working in some areas as Greg, Justin and Gary review each one of the new Renegades figures with the general consensus being that these are AWESOME! Gary encourages a thread on HissTank concerning wanting a Sideshow Navy SEAL Torpedo figure - how sweet would that figure be!? Oh, and the Hits for Tots campaign rolls on at full speed. We'll be making some less fortunate children and the US Marine Corps very happy this holiday season!
