An auction on Tao Bao has revealed the 1st box images of the upcoming Rip Attack Vehicles:

• Jet Storm Cycle with Snake Eyes
• Tiger Snake with Street-Viper

These vehicles are part of the initial Pursuit of Cobra assortments planned for release early next year. They were revealed during the panels at JoeCon 2009. Amongst collectors, G.I. Joe Pursuit of Cobra has been gathering steam with some preferring it over the current Rise of Cobra line.

If there was anything that was feverishly anticipated by the fandom this past year(yet surprisingly without much product, promotion, or advertising), it was G.I. Joe Resolute. With the November 3rd DVD release date approaching that anticipation has only increased. Io9 has posted storyboards from Titmouse used for G.I. Joe Resolute.

The Snow Serpent was a long awaited arrival in wave 9 of the Modern Era line, and makes an appearance in the Rise of Cobra line, this time as an exclusive to Toys 'R' Us. This time around, this figure comes with a giant missle launcher and comes in a more muted, darker paint scheme.

It's fitting to see this popular army builder in the movie line, hit the discuss button to see how it turned out!

The Firebat was a well received vehicle released in the Modern Era line and now it makes an appearance in the G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra line, this time retooled and repainted as a Joe vehicle. It's one of the better alpha vehicles in the line, and hasn't completely hit saturation yet around the country, as most fans are still just seeing wave 1 vehicles on the shelves.

Paired with Air Raid, this aerial assault craft is one of the few Joe aircraft to make an appearance in the Rise of Cobra line. To see how it turned out and how it compares to the Firebat, hit the discuss button below!

HISS Tank member kennywr22 has passed along updated information about G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra sales from Target:

For those caring about the sales of the joe figures the past week they sold about 7,000 total between the two asst. This week so far they are at about 4,000 total. I've noticed the asst b is increasing in sales and they will definetly sell though by january(only about 84,000 total left and that is not alot). Another wierd thing i noticed is the cost of the asst b is now showing 5.00 and not the 6.25 that asst a is showing. Not sure what that means but at least that means target isn't losing on the asst b anymore.

Also more Combat Heroes, this time as stocking stuffers:

Just thought i'd let those of you who care about the combat heroes(i happen to like them) that Target is going to carry some in there christmas stocking stuffer section this year. Not sure if there just repaints or what yet. They retail on them i believe was 8.99. Should see them about second week of november.

So not too long from now we might see Destro Claus and his Iron GrenaDEER!

The Desert Viper(Desert Assault) features a mix of parts from Snake Eyes, Elite Viper, and other figures. Possibly an homage to the vintage Desert Scorpion, this is one of the few desert themed figures in the line so far.

This figure is the only army builder in wave 5. Is it worth troop building? Hit the discuss button to find out!

Just as the venom of a Cobra contains neurotoxins that are capable of killing a human with a single bite, Cobra Snipers are deadly with a single shot. One of the vilest individuals on earth, COBRA Commander rarely, if ever, negotiates his demands. Instead, he uses his elite unit of snipers to demonstrate the consequences of non-compliance. From concealed positions, COBRA Snipers take care of those unwilling to give in to COBRA Commander's demands or are simply in the way of a larger agenda. In addition to their extensive infantry training and natural born marksmanship capabilities, COBRA Snipers are specialists in camouflage, infiltration, observation and reconnaissance techniques. Employing these abilities, COBRA dispatches snipers across the globe to remind the nations of the world that their most important personnel are always within reach of COBRA's fangs. Time and time again, G.I. JOE has had to deal with COBRA Snipers on the battlefield. Above being an added annoyance and source of frustration, COBRA Snipers have hit their marks more times than the Joe's are willing to admit. While respected for their abilities, their cold-blooded selection of targets incenses many of the Joes and at the same time filling COBRA Commander's heart with delight. They have no remorse and the psychological training they received from COBRA has removed any trace of conscience that may have previously affected their loyalties. These individuals are simply an extension of the venom coursing in COBRA Commander's veins.......COBRA!
