CRAVE Online has conducted a video interview with Jon Chu, in which he alludes to the possibility of Scarlett returning in GI Joe 3. You may remember a few years back that Rachel Nichols did actually want to return as Scarlett for GI Joe Retaliation. However as Chu states, just because most characters from Rise Of Cobra didn't appear in Retaliation doesn't mean that they did away with them. Retaliation just focused on a different segment of the Joe universe.
With the possibility of Scarlett returning, who else might return? More importantly, which characters do you want to return? The video can be seen by reading on.... [Read More] |

With SDCC 2013 having come to an end, we wanted to share some news from our time spent with Derryl DePriest from the Hasbro G.I. Joe Team. There was no new G.I. Joe product shown above and beyond what we have already seen. However don't break-out your "Death of the Line" rants just yet.
Most of my time was spent talking about the positive effects that G.I. Joe Retaliation has had on the brand. With the movie being delayed it really threw a monkey wrench in the works. Good news is G.I. Joe Retaliation was a huge hit from the stand point of both Hasbro and Paramount; that is going to lead us to the already confirmed third G.I. Joe Movie. G.I. Joe Retaliation waves 3.5 and 4 will be shipping to retail shortly to support the launch of the G.I. Joe Retaliation movie on Blue Ray and DVD and continue to ship for the holiday season to support both. G.I. Joe Kre-O will also continue into 2014 with many new G.I. Joe sets on the way. Look for those to also be shown at Toy Fair 2014 or NYCC 2013 in October. The best news to come out of the meeting was the future plans for the G.I. Joe Brand. Starting at next years Toy Fair 2014 we will get our first look at what Hasbro has planned for the future. There will be a small gap between G.I. Joe Retaliation and the next interpretation of the brand, but the ride is far from over. Next year is the 50th Anniversary of the brand and there were no specific details given, but there will be G.I. Joe in 2014. Special shout out to G.I. Joe Retaliation Director "Jon M. Chu" and Snake Eyes "Ray Park" for spending their time with the fans at SDCC 2013 and I would also like to thank everybody at the SDCC 2013 Hasbro Booth for a great event. Sound off on the HISSTANK.com Forums after the jump.... [Read More] |

From our sister site TFW2005 (and by extension, Sol Fury), Courthouse News reports that Harmony Gold, owners of the Robotech IP and by extension Macross in the USA, have filed a complaint that Hasbro's recent SDCC 2013 exclusive G.I. Joe VS Transformers Skystriker Jetfire has infringed on their IP. The action, submitted to the US District Court, seeks injunctive relief and damages from Hasbro.
The action against Hasbro by Harmony Gold originates with the earliest origins of the Autobot Jetfire and the US licensing rights of the series from which his toy originated, Macross. Hasbro in 1984 licensed the VF-1 Valkyrie toy for use in Transformers as Jetfire, while during the same period, Harmony Gold licensed the rights to Macross from Tatsunako, including merchandising rights. This was one reason, in the original Generation 1 Transformers cartoon, for Jetfire featuring a much different design on screen and being phased out of the series early in the second season. What Harmony Gold alleges is that Hasbro's G.I. Joe VS Transformers Jetfire Skystriker toy infringes upon Harmony Gold's rights to the marketing of Macross, including merchandising rights, outside of Japan, based on the resemblance of the toy to the Veritech VF-1 Valkyrie. They allege that the SDCC exclusive toy has caused, and continues to cause, financial damage to their company. As a result Harmony Gold are seeking the withdrawal of the G.I. Joe VS Transformers Jetfire Skystriker toy from sale, seizure of all remaining stock (including Hasbro to "recall from any person or entity known to them who purchased or received... any unauthorized toys or other products based on [Harmony Gold's] copyrighted works"), Hasbro to pay all profits made on the set to Harmony Gold, in addition to damages, legal fees and "exemplary damages in an amount sufficient amount to punish and make a public example of Hasbro, and deter wrongful conduct in future". Short version for those who do not wish to read the long wall of text: Harmony Gold is taking action in the courts against Hasbro due to the resemblance of the G.I. Joe VS Transformers Jetfire Skystriker, and what they are seeking is: 1) Remaining toys to be removed from sale; 2) Unsold stock to be turned over to them (& a possible recall); 3) Lots of $ in damages. You can view the original report on Courthose News here and a copy of the Complaint lodged with the United States District Court Here... [Read More] |

Thanks to HISSTANK.com board member Letal for posting up images of his custom Skidmark figure.
Skidmark is the G.I. Joe Team's Desert Fox driver. His real name is Cyril Colombani, and his rank is that of corporal E-4. Skidmark was born in Los Angeles, California, and was first released as an action figure in 1988, packaged with the "Desert Fox" 6WD jeep. Skidmark's primary military specialty is fast attack vehicle driver, and his secondary military specialty is infantry. As a kid, he was polite, well groomed, and successful in his studies. However, when he received his first driver's lesson, he subsequently shattered all-known records for accumulating speeding violations. He is the G.I. Joe Team's fastest and most reliable recon driver. Check out all the Skidmark custom images after the jump.... [Read More] |

Director Jon M. Chu talked a bit about G. I. Joe 3 with Collider. He mentioned that both Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Bruce Willis will return. So, we are going to have our Roadblock and General Colton back.
On Retaliation, they have learned that fans were okay with stretching things a little further, so now they can “double down on the adventure part of this movie.” He cautions that they won’t go sci-fi, but they can “push the boundaries of the world a bit more.” When they [The Director] bring up an idea that they saw in the comic book, the people at Hasbro are able to say, “did you know that there are three different versions of this?”. This was told with regards to the plot of G. I. Joe 3. Also, the director expressed his interest in directing a G. I. Joe/Transformers Crossover. "[Jokingly] I got to get rid of Michael Bay first" said Mr. Chu. "We got to get there. We got to evolve to something like that. I would love to. As a kid I would combine my toys. If the realities of their worlds match, I think you are okay to do that. I'd love to. I'd be totally ok to do something like that" Read more at Collider and enjoy the video of the interview, below: ... [Read More] |

Thanks to HISSTANK.com boards member OreoBuilder for posting up even more of his awesome G.I. Joe Battle Corps customs.
Battle Corps Month Day 27: Ice Cream Soldier "Perhaps no other figure best represents the perception that most fans have of the Battle Corps era than Ice Cream Soldier: the sculpting is good, the colors are bad. The mold was later re-colored as the Cobra Shock Viper during the rebirth era, proving the strength of the sculpting. However, for the colors, there is no way around it Ice Cream Soldier is orange, very orange and neon yellow, very neon. These are the reasons why I chose to make this figure part of the project. We cannot celebrate the ‘’neon years’’ without Ice Cream Soldier." Check out many more Battle Corps images after the jump.... [Read More] |

Thanks to HISSTANK.com board member flaveydavey for posting up images of his custom Dreadnok "Big Red".
All Dreadnoks are uncouth and violent, and usually engage their enemies with unconventional and creative (many times crude) weaponry. Most, if not all, have shown a particular taste for chocolate-covered donuts and grape soda. The Dreadnoks also make a habit of torturing captured enemies, usually in bizarre ways such as exposure to pain-inducing laughing gas or tossing victims into pools of man-eating piranhas.
