Back in August of last year, site sponsor Cobrastickers.com asked for Sky Striker Sticker Suggestions, and since then we've seen a few previews. Well now we have the biggest preview yet, as they have added some more sticker sets to the site(not in stock yet), with a bunch of new images! You gave your suggestions, so take a gander at what turned up, which includes a Seeker with Reflector sticker inside as a placeholder pilot(Transformers G1 homage G1 homage!), to a sticker set based on the "Starstriker" from the GI Joe A Real American Hero episode, "The Wrong Stuff":
  • F-14 Tomcat generic markings
  • Starstriker XP-14FS(with pilot stickers for Roadblock, et al)
  • Thundercracker
  • Starscream Sky Striker Variety Set
  • TOP GUN - Maverick
  • TOP GUN - Iceman
  • VF-101 Grim Reapers "Gunfighter 163"(well suited for Ghost Rider!)
  • VF-143 Pukin Dogs
Some of the sets are designed to be used in unison with the F-14 Tomcat generic marking set. These aren't all the sets though, yet to be seen are the Jolly Rogers squadron marking sets, Starscream Sky Striker and Skywarp. Shout out to Justin of Cobrastickers for all his hard work! Check out a bunch of new images of the new sticker sets after the jump!

GI Joe Ark Style Book Officially Announced
 
Originally posted by: Shin Densetsu @ Hisstank.com

Looks like we're in for more than just toys and a movie this year, which is the true GI Joe A Real American Hero 30th anniversary! Jim Sorenson, whose Transformers Animated Allspark Almanac Volume 2 had a surprising amount of GI Joe A Real American Hero references, has officially announced(on his blog) that he will be writing an Ark-style book for GI Joe! So what's in an Ark-style book? Tons of Sunbow animation model sheets, and more(and he may have some sneak peeks at Roll Out Roll Call 2012)! Here's what Sorenson had to say:

It's going to be pretty spectacular. For some reason I've been able to find WAY more material than I have for Transformers. As the illustration to the right jokingly illustrates, I'm going to be taking a few thousand model sheets and condensing the very best and most interesting of them down into one volume of a few hundred pages. I'm really stoked at my first work in this new and glorious arena. I've come across some amazingly cool rare stuff, plus most of what you'd expect for a book about the Sunbow animation models. I'm still looking for more material, too, so if you're a collector of such things drop me a line. I'm especially interested in material from the movie and the commercials beyond, as well as incidental characters.

While sifting through model sheets, Sorenson came across a model sheet for an unused MARS Industries sub, similar to one the Seacons used in a Transformers G1 commercial. We've attached the image here, and here's how he describes it:

While putting together the Joe book, I cam across a very similar model, an early unused version of a Cobra submarine. (The actual model was revised a bit, most prominently to include a giant cobra head painted on the front of the sub, and will almost certainly be in the Joe model book.) Sure enough, the Seacons were menacing a sub from the same class of vessels that Cobra uses, seen here. I think it's kind of neat to uncover yet another connection between the Joe-verse and Transformers-verse.

Whether you're a fan artist hungry for GI Joe references or a fan who appreciates having a guide full of resourceful ARAH design material, this book will have a wealth of information that all fans can appreciate!

I was inspired by Kevin Watts' POC Alley Viper that he did here:

Kevin was really helpful as I put this one together.
So a big thanks to him as this was only my second painted figure."

On October 2010, TFW Network announced the partnership between Hasbro and JAKKS Pacific’s Disguise Costumes Division to manufacture and distribute Halloween Costumes based on Hasbro owned properties. At that time, everybody was all excited for Transformers 3. Sure enough, we saw the arrival of Costumes based on Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

Now however, G. I. Joe: Retaliation is one of the most anticipated movies this summer. And yes… Disguise is revealing their line-up of Costumes and Accessories based on G. I. Joe: Retaliation.

The costumes are very movie accurate, comparing to the trailer footage we’ve seen so far.

Take a look at all the Costumes, after the jump.

At the moment you can preorder the Accessories via our site sponsor Big Bad Toy Store (There are some G. I. Joe 2 Accessories, not listed at Disguise Official Website available at BBTS too).

Fun Publications Response to Suspicious Credi
 
Originally posted by: DESTRO @ Hisstank.com

[quote]Over the last week or so, a number of GIJOE & Transformers Collectors have noticed unauthorized charges on their credit cards and have received phone calls from their various financial institutions alerting them to possible fraudulent charges on their accounts. *A good number of collectors have been hit with these fraudulent charges, including members of TFW2005.COM's own staff.

Fun Publications, the parent company behind the annual BotCon and JoeCon conventions, have released a statement regarding these charges and the possible, if any, link between the credit card fraud and their online ordering system. *We have copied their statement, but you can also download the .PDF file yourself by clicking here.

"We have been receiving feedback that there has been a higher than*
usual number of fraud complaints posted on online Transformers*
forums.*

While we have nothing to suggest that there was an issue with the TCC*
and Fun Publications, we look into every concern that is sent to us. All*
of your transactions are in a secure socket with the strongest encryption*
available to any site on the web. If you have a specific concern about*
any transaction with us, please use the “contact us” link located at the*
bottom of the TCC page and provide us with as much information as*
possible including:*

1. The EXACT name of merchant as it is written on your statement.*
2. Amount and date of suspect charge.*
3. Bank your card is drawn on and if it is a debit or credit card.*
4. Device and browser (and version) you used for your last payment*
with us before you saw a fraudulent charge (ie, android phone,*
computer, iphone, browser and version).*
6. Were you on a public computer?*
7. Were you on a public wi‐fi network?*
8. If you were at home or work, what Internet provider did you use?*
9. On your last transaction with us, did you receive any kind of error*
message (card declined, 404 error, programming type error)? If you did*
receive an error, how many times did you resubmit your information?*

It is very difficult to track credit card fraud. With your help, we can see*
if there are any parallels between those reporting an issue.*

In order to better protect yourself, here are some guidelines:*

Never log into a secure site from a public computer, public wi‐fi, or*
through android/windows phones. Only use your mobile device on a*
mobile app for transactions, never a browser. Turn off your bluetooth*
and wi‐fi to prevent people from hacking your credit card information*
from your phone/computer.*

If you have a card that has an rfid chip, make sure your card is shielded*
when not in use.*

Always make sure you are using a secure socket (https) for any login*
that requires a password or a monetary transaction.*

Never email your credit card information to anyone.*

As should be common practice, on a regular basis, be sure to check your*
statements and make note of any suspicious activity on your card. If you*
see an unauthorized charge, turn it in to your bank or card company, the*
charge will be reversed, they will issue a new card for you and the*
security system in place will have done its job.*

Please also take the time to read the attached article and research credit*
card security. We are very aware that security concerns have risen*
exponentially in the last couple years and we are doing our part to stay*
ahead of the curve.

"Can Hackers Destroy the Internet?" - Forbes.com"

It is always important that you monitor your card's activity, regardless if you purchase online or not. *A special thank you goes out to all the various collectors who have banded together to bring this issue to light, and in many instances, have helped collectors stop their card from being compromised. *We at TFW2005.COM urge everyone, regardless of when or where they shopped recently, to monitor their cards for suspicious activity. *

The TV Spot is focused on South Korean actor Lee Byung-hun who plays the role of Storm Shadow in both Rise of Cobra and Retaliation. The commercial features an additional scene of Storm Shadow getting dressed [probably to confront his enemy; Snake Eyes], but other than that we've seen the rest of the footage from the 1st Trailer, Superbowl Spot and the French [International] Trailer.

Dave Dorman Wants To Make a Hasbro GI Joe Boo
 
Originally posted by: Shin Densetsu @ Hisstank.com

Quote:

We grew up with fascinating illustrations of GI Joe A Real American Hero on toy packages back in the 80's. These drawings are revered so much that they were the basis for the GI Joe 25th Anniversary line cardbacks, and have been paid homage to numerous times, before, and after. One of the artists who worked on the ARAH line was Dave Dorman, and he wants to create an artbook full of un-produced Hasbro GI Joe artwork! Here's what he posted on his blog recently:

Most of my fans know that during the mid-’80s to the early ’90s, I worked with Hasbro producing G.I. Joe artwork for their Research and Development Department. This art was done as presentation for the Board of Directors to determine whether any particular character would move forward to future production. My task was to paint the characters designed as 3 1/2″ toys to look like real fighting G.I. Joe characters. None of this work was meant for publication, however, over the years, fans and collectors have seen some of this art via the Web or fan club communications. (One of the future projects I am hoping to get off of the ground is a collection of all of this unseen artwork into a G.I. Joe/Hasbro art volume. I will keep you up to date on information as this project progresses.)

In addition, Dorman posted step by step images of a Frag Viper commission he did recently. We've mirrored some of the images, which you can check out after the jump! In addition, Dorman is open to commissions:

Many of my G.I. Joe fans have asked me about commission work or recreations. This is the first one I have ever done, and I did enjoy bringing back good memories of working with the artists and creators at Hasbro. I would certainly be happy to do more of this type of work if any of you are interested. Please feel free to email me directly at dormanart@yahoo.com or message me via Facebook

As always, I thank you for your time and interest in my work.

Dave


So have at it HissTank'ers, would you buy a Dave Dorman GI Joe art book?
