When Croc Master died in the original run of GI Joe A Real American Hero by Marvel Comics, the wife of HissTank boards member yeti76 became quite concerned. No, not for how Croc Master met his demise, but for his crocodiles. Yeti76's wife wasn't just concerned, she was so concerned in fact, that she wrote a letter to Larry Hama, to which he gave a hand written response.

This letter has now been framed. Click on the thumbnail to read the letter and the response for yourself!

Official Hasbro G. I. Joe Website has been updated for G. I. Joe: Retaliation for the second time.

The site has removed the preview items that were previously there and replaced them with a link to Hasbro Toy Shop, where you can take a look at the G. I. Joe: Retaliation Product Line Information including the Packaging and Bios.

Here's the H.I.S.S. Tank Vehicle with COBRA COMMANDER Bio:

"This tough, armored H.I.S.S Tank vehicle will take your G.I. JOE adventures to the next level! Your COBRA COMMANDER figure stands in the rotating gun turret on this intense combat vehicle, where he can fire the rotating gatling cannon at those who block his path. When the moment is right for a terrifying attack, the vehicle rises up for cobra strike lift action! Will G.I. JOE and his allies (other figures sold separately) be able to handle the assaults of your COBRA COMMANDER figure in his H.I.S.S. Tank vehicle? Let the mayhem begin! This menacing H.I.S.S. Tank vehicle has a spinning gatling cannon and a rotating gun turret! Open the canopy to put your COBRA COMMANDER figure inside. Load the missiles in the launcher to fire. Vehicle rises up like a striking snake!"

After a long week of fans waiting around for JoeCon Registration, we get word at the end of the day, that registration is not going up today, but rather Monday. The GIJOE Club has sent out this email to Club members.

"Hello all!

Well, once again I have to tell you registration is not going to be up today, or until at least Monday, so don't worry about checking this weekend.

I apologize for the delay. We have to ensure that this works correctly. I assure you, I am more upset than you are. Hopefully online Monday, there are still a couple of minor issues that must be corrected.

I will tell you that the system has a new feature. It now has a customer account screen where you can see your invoice, the invoice status and all of the emails that are sent to you from the registration system. This will include show updates, along with your package pick-up information. So, if everyone else is getting an email and you are not, you can just log in and retrieve the information.

We will get this done and I know we are coming to the edge in terms of airfare discounts. Just as a side note, we don't book staff airfare until about 4 weeks out as this is generally the cheapest you can get it.

Thanks for your patience.

See you in NOLA!

Brian"

"At the Cobra... Cobra Commander!" (sung to the Copacabana song)"

However, if you look closely, the back of the Helmet, the color and the coat he's wearing is slightly different from the shots of Cobra Commander we've seen on Trailers. Almost look like a movie accurate toy actually. Nah!... couldn't be. A comparison image is added after the jump.
