Last but not least, in our Reloaded series of images from the Nocturnal Fire 2013 Box Set is Night Force Spearhead & Max! "Spearhead could jump face first into a vat of rapid hyenas and fifteen guys would follow him."
Spearhead & Max Night Force 2013 - 25th / Modern G.I. Joe Figures G.I. Joe 25th Anniversary / Modern Spearhead was the youngest and most successful insurance salesman in the Pacific North West. It was said that he could sell a term policy to a dead cow. Everybody liked him, trusted him, and bought more insurance from him than they could afford. He denies that guilt was a factor in his decision to join the Army - he simply felt that somebody had to do it. This determination to put the mission before his own needs made him a natural for the G.I. Joe team. When Night Force conducts attacks against Cobra bases, Spearhead and his nocturnal pet bobcat "Max" Always lead the unit to give it an added punch through the enemy's defense lines! Check out all of the new images of Night Force Spearhead & Max! after the jump.... [Read More] |

Cobra Mortal 2013 - 25th / Modern Cobra Figures G.I.

The current malefactor is greatly feared by all in the region and is considered the top of the food chain in his territory. He rose to power by aiding corrupt administrators within the Venezuelan government to overthrow the democratic governments neighboring them, reducing legitimate petroleum competition and increasing illegal exports. he is a firm believer in Cobra Commander's goal to throw the world into economic turmoil while his own wealth and power grows.

Hasbro held its 2013 1st Quarter Financial Conference Call yesterday and HISSTANK staff attended live online.
Although, Hasbro didn’t mention much about G. I. Joe on their main financial statement, a question was asked at the Q&A session regarding the future of the brand. Is there any sort of impact to be expected on bottom-line in participation of G. I. Joe: Retaliation? Hasbro’s CEO Brian Goldner answered the question. "We have to see over the longer term how that looks obviously. We do participate a bit in the box-office and we are also very excited of the long term opportunity with that brand. You know, the update over the weekend we saw box-office results coming out of China and now Global Box-Office is over [US$] 300 Million and we are up significantly in major emerging markets if we talk about box-office there… especially the emerging market for 3D. Great box-office results in China, in Russia and Brazil. So, it portrays great things for the brand in longer terms" What do you think of this statement by the CEO? What sort of opportunities will the success bring?... [Read More] |

We are just a few short days away from the Spring NJCC 2013 New Jersey Collectors Con. You have seen the mock-up for Salvo, but now we have our first "teaser image" of the finished custom giveaway for this years show. The full photo shoot and information will be posted up tomorrow.
"Any enemy armored unit that runs into Salvo is going to wind up getting scraped off the local foliage. The man carries enough ordinance to turn any tank column into smoldering husks, and he isn't shy about raining that "shock and awe" down upon Cobra." I also wanted to extend a special thank you to the people who made the figure possible....

Joe: The Complete Collection, the full run of original Real American Hero, Special Missions, and Yearbook tales, placed in proper reading order and collected in handsome hardcover volumes. "I was eleven years old when G.I. Joe #1 was released, and I remember reading and re-reading and re-re-reading the wonderfully oversized Treasury Edition reprint of #1 at least 500 times until the pages fell apart in my hands; this is NO exaggeration. I have memorized nearly every word of the first issue. The comic speaks to me like no other before or since; I therefore have a vested interest in seeing this project succeed." To read the full G.I.

With G. I. Joe 3 greenlit by Paramount, G. I. Joe Live Action Movie script writers; Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick are busy at work writing the script for the next movie. When IGN asked what they have in mind, the writers said they might bring back The Baroness:
"We were able to chat with the G.I. Joe Retaliation screenwriters, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, recently and discovered that the pair are actively in the process of breaking the story for the third film. The Zombieland co-writers were looking at a wall of story ideas and notes for G.I. Joe 3 as we spoke. When asked what sorts of story ideas they were playing with, the scribes said that they wanted to “resurrect the Baroness like a zombie” in this next one. Now, the Barnoness didn’t actually die in the first film, so she wouldn’t need resurrection as such. We think the team just has zombies on the brain as they’ve recently launched their Amazon Zombieland pilot. They also may have meant that they’d like to see the character receive a “proper” treatment versus what was – in the minds of many fans – an odd interpretation of the iconic Joe villainess in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. It’s interesting that they called out the Baroness specifically, though, as she was one of the few villains not mentioned in Retaliation." What do you think of this news? Would you like to see The Baroness return after the absence from G. I. Joe: Retaliation? Leave a thought at the thread associated with this News Post.... [Read More] |

Huffington Post recently had a chance to interview G. I. Joe: Retaliation Script Writers; Paul Wernick And Rhett Reese. They had many things to say, including their plans for G. I. Joe 3.
The director, Jon Chu, grew up with G.I. Joe as well, and it seems like this is the right team to be putting together a G.I. Joe movie. Why do you think they didn't do that the first time? Wernick: Well, you know, it's funny. I think there were just a host of problems on that first one, just in terms of, I think, it was up against the writers' strike. And there was just a scramble to get it made. You know, Hasbro was pushing, and there were issues with toys and so forth. Like, there was a roll-out campaign. There was a whole complex issue of movie making and such that outside factors, and assassins kind of just -- you know, it's not for us to judge the first one. There were elements of the first one that we thought were great, that gave us the great gift of launching off into the second one with the bad president, which we thought was a great launching point into "G.I. Joe 2." The rest of the interview contains spoilers, if you haven't already watched G. I. Joe: Retaliation. To read the rest, take a look after the jump.... [Read More] |

During the Q&A Session a question was asked about next movies and Television shows. Answer: "What we are really seeing in Boys Action [Category] is that we are seeing a stair-step in building a brand over time. 1st movie get you to a certain spot and if you have television [shows] in the following year, the brand doesn’t trench back to the level that was prior to the movie and then you can stair-step upwards over time. Between Hasbro’s brands like Transformers, G. I. Joe or Marvel, Lucas brands, we can imagine that happens well." Hopefully, we might see a new Animated TV Series soon... but we can't count our chickens before they hatch after-all. For the complete coverage, visit our sister site; TFW2005.... [Read More] |
