G.I. Joe Time Again! Sideshow’s Tease and a New Vehicle
It’s been awhile since I had any G.I. Joe updates, but there really hasn’t been anything too exciting to talk about. That has changed slightly since Sideshow has released a tasty teaser for their upcoming line of 12 inch Joe figures:
In case you missed it, Hasbro announced a while back that they were making a 12 inch Joe line, but they also partnered up with Sideshow to produce some higher end Joes. Basically, the Sideshow ones are the twelve inch Joes to look out for. There’s still no word on how much they cost of if they will be based on the movie versions of the characters though. I pray to bloody hell that they aren’t, since that would make them pretty worthless.
In addition to the teaser Hasbro has a couple of ads for the new Joe and Cobra vehicles coming out. What’s interesting is the G.I. Joe themed ad which shows a Conquest X-30 fighter jet amongst the already announced vehicles. While it’s not one of the bigger vehicles that Joe fans have been hoping for, it is certainly a welcome addition to the 25th style line-up (click on the pic to enlarge it).
