Many remember the original "death of the line" back in 1994. What many don't know (or may not remember) is that there were plans to carry the G.I.Joe brand in to 1995. The Line Up was to include various sub lines, including Battle Rangers, Ninja Commandos and more Star Brigade Manimals.

HissTank.com forum member Roshan has written up a review of a rare figure from this time line for our sister site, ToyArk. The figure in question? Well, none other than the Manimal known as Vortex.

Here's a piece of what Roshan had to say:

In 1994, Hasbro ended the 1982-1994 run of the GI Joe line, but not without leaving a lot of unproduced items on the drawing board for 1995. Some were so close to stores they were fully produced with packaging for dealer samples, and were listed as 'coming soon' on the back of produced Star Brigade card backs. These figures were the Manimals, and alongwith the canceled Ninja Commandos are the most sought after unproduced figures in the GI Joe collecting community.

Join us after the jump for the full review, detailed pictures and discussion already in progress.

Hasbro Investor Day 2011 is almost over but for people who were watching the live web feed you got to hear some of the upcoming GI Joe 2 Retaliation movie footage. We were told it was not an official trailer but a cut up of footage taken from the film. We could not view the footage but we could hear it. Before the footage was show we were told that GIJOE 2 Retaliation will have a Heavy Ninja Focus. Most of what we got to hear was Swords Clashing and Major Gunfire while Cypress Hill provided the soundtrack "Rock Super Star"

We will have a Break Down of what we heard shortly, including a speech given by the Roadblock aka The Rock ... Stay Tuned...

Remember the Hasbro's Investor Day 2011 event? (of course you remember, it’s just the post below. How silly of me to ask). Anyway, we were shown a trailer (well actually we didn’t, we only heard it). And we did notice few things here and there. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is addressed as Roadblock and in a particular scene he is heard saying the classic children's bed time prayer; Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep.

"Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
If I shall die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take."

So, Roadblock rhymes in G. I. Joe: Retaliation?

From a Tweet made by Ray Park (Snake Eyes of the Live Action G. I. Joe Movie Series), it seems as though G. I. Joe: Retaliation filming has ended.

Wrap Party tonight! Wahooo! Yabba Yabba Dooooo! Yoooooo Joe!!!!

Since we saw (heard) something very close to a Trailer (which ran for more than 3 minutes) at the Hasbro’s Investor Day 2011, we can safely assume that this is indeed the Wrap Party for the 2nd movie.

The movie is now in the Post Production stage and is set to release on June 29th, 2012.

G. I. Joe: Retaliation stars Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Roadblock and Bruce Willis as General Joe Colton.

Jolly Rogers sets and TF sets are done and awaiting print tests.

In addition, there is an update sent to WildBill from their designer Justin:

Hey RJ,

Just finished the TOP GUN sets for the Skystriker. Two different sets in the TOP GUN series: The "Maverick" set and the "Iceman" set. Each set is designed to be paired up with our generic markings set for the full effect, just like all our upcoming Squadron sets.

A big Thanks to all the Hisstank forum posters that gave me the info I needed to get the right squad markings on this set. I hope they like what I did.

Enjoy.

Justin

The G. I. Joe: Retaliation Wrap Party which Ray Park tweeted about did happen. Pictured in this news post is an “Ice Bar” tweeted by Tara Macken; a Stunt Actress for G. I. Joe 2 who was at the party.

There may still be filming with Stunt and Stand-In artists but we are yet to hear a solid word regarding the current status of the movie.

Also, fellow HISSTANK member skinny tells us that Director Jon Chu replied to a tweet mentioning we will see the Teaser Trailer for the upcoming movie, very soon.

Leaks from G. I. Joe: Retaliation is next to nothing. Unbelievably, Transformers: Dark of the Moon filming which was given Top Secret tight security revealed far more than what we heard from G. I. Joe 2.

Aside from filming, we eagerly await Toy news, Comic Book news and all things attached with the movie release.

"The Transportable Tactical Battle Platform was the only G.I. JOE base that I had as a child. I used it all the time, in fact it was so used that a lot of the pieces were broken.
As a child it was awesome, I really can not recall wanting to change anything about it. However, as an adult customizer I saw things that needed to be changed."
