Sideshow Collectibles Exclusive Sixth Scale Destro - Instock And Shipping Out
Destro Sixth Scale Figure Hailing from a long line of savvy war profiteers, we are proud to introduce the next adversary in our G.I. Joe Sixth Scale Collection, the Destro – Weapons Supplier Sixth Scale Figure! As a fascinating foil to the megalomaniac Cobra Commander, behind the beryllium steel mask lies a shrewd arms dealer who walks the line between evil-doer and man of integrity. Regardless of his true agenda, Destro aids the COBRA terrorist organization in many of its missions in world domination, with the lovely Baroness at his side. We have outfitted Laird Destro in a hand-tailored costume, complete with vest and long jacket for warmth in the Scottish Highlands, and around his neck hangs the remarkable McCullen ruby medallion, a treasured family heirloom. The head of M.A.R.S. Industries comes aptly equipped with an array of deadly, technologically advanced gear and accessories, including COBRA weapon blueprints and a satellite location tracking device. Always prepared for dangerous situations, Destro keeps a chrome pistol harnessed at his side, and a laser pistol concealed behind a secret panel in his communications case. His arm gauntlets house both miniature wrist rockets and hand grenades, signature examples of his cutting edge technology that pack enough punch to knock out a combat helicopter. SIDESHOW EXCLUSIVE VERSION The Exclusive Destro Sixth Scale Figure will include an alternative swap-out head, for a more realistic interpretation of ‘the man in the iron mask’ (shown above left). The Pre-Order went live on October 10, 2013. Both the Exclusive and regular versions of Destro will be priced at $179.99, with payment plans available for as low as $60.00/month. Plan on adding Destro to your collection? Let us know by joining in on the discussion in progress after the jump. Sideshow Collectibles Exclusive Sixth Scale Destro - Instock And Shipping Out...

Hasbro has just released new images of the G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary Danger At The Docks. We have posted up the new images of the box set that will include:
No official word was given that these will be sold at SDCC 2014 and the lack of the official SDCC logo sticker should tell us all this will NOT be exclusive to SDCC even if it does make it to this years show. However the folder that the press images were listed under was labeled SDCC. Check out the new G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary Danger At The Docks images after the jump.... [Read More] |

Introduction
GI Joe: Resurgence It is the year 2015. Following years of relative peace, the ruthless terrorist organization known as Cobra has resurfaced by staging several bold attacks on high profile targets all over the World. Returning to active duty, General Hawk enlists the help of his most trusted acolytes – Duke, Beachhead, Stalker and others. Together, they recruit a new group of soldiers and rebuild the World’s ultimate special operations unit: GI Joe. Coming in 2015, GI Joe: Resurgence brings back famous GI Joe members from all eras and introduces many new faces to the team. It also marks the return of Cobra Commander and his army of evil henchmen bent on World domination! Collect them all and create your own battles. Day 0: It’s funny how the creative process works. Sometimes, you start off with something, an idea and through brainstorming, playing with fodder and working with a creative partner, the original idea organically morphs into something new. This project started out very differently than where it ended up. When we were wrapping up Project New Sculpt, Bucky started talking to me about a project that he had been thinking about for a long time. As most Joe fans know, the original ARAH line ended in 1994 and GI Joe disappeared from store shelves for three years. Most of us have probably seen the concept sketches for the 1995 Battle Corps Rangers line and wondered what GI Joe would have looked like if it had not been cancelled. So why am I giving this brief history lesson? Bucky’s original idea was called ‘’Project 96’’. The basic premise was hypothetical: What if GI Joe’s 1995 toy line had been released and been popular enough to stop the franchise’s decline? What would the 1996 line have looked like? We started from there. We set about creating our own toy line for GI Joe. After some brainstorming, some initial painting and consulting a few people outside of the project, we realized that creating a whole 1996 line in modern era format was counter-intuitive. We decided to reboot GI Joe for 2015 instead and GI Joe: Resurgence came about. As we reveal the project, some traces of the former Project 96 are still evident in some of the characters choices, paint colors and general themes. Although the project evolved since we started in March, our original intention has remained the same: We wanted to create a rebooted version of GI Joe our own way using most of the elements that have made us fans. New characters mixed with old favorites Military feel with some sci-fi/fantasy elements A variety of cool vehicles A strong sense of nostalgia Since we don’t know what, if anything, Hasbro has planned for our favorite brand. Bucky, Dusty79 and myself decided to show off our view of what GI Joe could be. We were helped along the way by many others: Patrick ‘’Notpicard’’ Stewart, Justin ‘’General Hawk’’ Bell, Mayor, GITrekker and, of course, Kirk Bozigian. This project would not have been possible without their help, time, effort and input. Thanks guys! We’ll be rolling out our complete line-up during the whole month of July. Sit back, enjoy and comments are always welcome!... [Read More] |

The New Jersey Collectors Convention is proud to announce that Boss Fight Studio will be attending the August 17th, 2014 NJCC toy show! Boss Fight is comprised of several former Hasbro designers and a sculptor who all worked on fan-favorite action figure lines like Transformers, G.I. Joe, Star Wars and Marvel Universe. Currently Boss Fight Studio's is working on their first Kick Starter for Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S.?
What is Boss Fight Studio's and Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S.? Highly Articulated - We believe that action figures are meant to be played with. If it doesn't move, then it's a statue. That's why Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S. figures are designed with poseability as a priority. Our 4" base figure features at least 17 points of articulation, all with an excellent range of motion. Check out their Kick Starter that is now live! Boss Fight Studio's Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S. KickStarter ![]() Announced NJCC Door Prizes! This list will grow as we get closer to convention time....

The G.I.Joe Resurgence Custom Project by Oreo Builder, Bucky and Dusty 79 is now in it's second day...and if this is what we can expect from these fine Gents, well then July is going to be chock full of awesome!
Day 2 brings us Stink Bug, a Cobra Non-Lethal Chemical Weapons Specialist and Splashdown, a G.I.Joe Combat Astronaut! Here's a breakdown on both characters: ---------- From the desk of Bucky: StinkBug was one of the first 5, and was originally going to be a viper, the stink viper. I'm not sure why, but I decided at some point to make him a unique cobra trooper. I tried my best to mod the vest and helmet piece to get away from the hazard viper look, and GITrekker's filecard really helped give him personality to make him stand out a bit. He was a fun figure to build. From the desk of Oreobuilder: The GI Joe tapestry has always had strong sci-fi threads. The team got its first astronaut in 1987 with Payload and got a few more members along the way. Still, since the ‘90s, there have been few, if any, astronauts added to the team. The initial intention of this figure, back when this line was still ‘’Project 96’’, was to add a realistic Astronaut to the Star Brigade sub-team. He started his life as a Data-Viper repaint with Iron Man gear, but when I saw Mr Freeze on store pegs, I picked one up right away and changed him into Splashdown. ---------- Want to see a bunch of killer images of these 2 new characters? Well then join us after the break for these characters and more from G.I.Joe Resurgence!... [Read More] |

The G.I.Joe Resurgence Custom Project by Oreo Builder, Bucky and Dusty 79 is now in it's third day...and check out the awesomeness that has just been posted!
Day 3 brings us the Cobra Exo-Viper and the Cobra SCRAMJet! Both are sure to spell trouble for G.I.Joe! Check it out - From the desk of Oreobuilder: This set is an idea that I’ve had kicking around since the Star Brigade Redux Group Project in 2011. At the time, I could not figure out a recipe and color scheme that I liked, so the concept got shelved. Fast forward to March this year. Bucky started talking about his project idea. I immediately started dusting off old ideas that would fit the project and a new Cobra troop type came out of it. GITrekker did a great job creating the back-story for Exo-Viper. You can check out images of the latest G.I.Joe Resurgence custom after the break!... [Read More] |
