Toy Fair 2013 Hasbro Showroom Photos

It's been said that Hasbro needed to inject some life into G.I. Joe so that future generations could enjoy it for years to come. The 3-D conversion of G.I. Joe: Retaliation, coupled with its star-studded cast gives the brand global exposure and some much needed excitement. We spoke with Hasbro’s marketing team about their 2013 plans for G.I. Joe and discussed what they envisioned for the brand moving forward.

The G.I. Joe Collectors' Club revealed its 12-inch Adventure Team exclusives for JoeCon '13, today. The Secret Mission to Dragon Island box set includes G.I. Joe: Man-of-Action with stealth jumpsuit and helmet, and Mr. Sebastian Gorman, the CEO of Terron Industries or chia head and chia beard, as we've been referring to them. Both figures are super articulated and include additional accessories not depicted in the club's photos. G.I. JoeCon 2013 runs April 4 - April 7 at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis.

Final Figures in JoeCon 2013 Nocturnal Fire Box Set Revealed

The G.I. Joe Collectors' Club's revealed the final three members in its 3-3/4-inch figure Nocturnal Fire box set; Repeater, Hit & Run, and Spearhead with Max. The trio join Charbroil, Muskrat and Psych-Out as part of the G.I. Joe Night Force team. The remainder of the set, comprised of the Cobra Demolitions Team includes Cobra Mortal, Cobra Letal, Frag-Viper, S.A.W.-Viper and Crimson Asp. The Nocturnal Fire set is exclusive to G.I. JoeCon 2013 and includes 15 figures, of which 10 are unique. G.I. JoeCon 2013 runs April 4 - April 7 at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis.

Two More G.I. JoeCon Exclusive Nocturnal Fire Figures Revealed

And then there were three. Only three figures remain to be revealed in the G.I. Joe Collectors' Club's exclusive 3-3/4-inch JoeCon Nocturnal Fire set. Today's unveiling of the S.A.W.-Viper and Crimson Asp completes the Cobra Demolitions Team, which also includes Cobra Mortal, Cobra Letal and Frag-Viper. Repeater, Hit and Run, and Spearhead with Max of the Night Force team are the final holdouts on the G.I. Joe side. Interestingly, the Collectors' Club's preview page for the Nocturnal Fire set has space for only two more figure reveals, making us wonder if someone on the Joe team didn't make the cut?

Hasbro Confirms No Retaliation Figures for UK

Our feet on the floor in London at The Toy Fair are reporting Hasbro UK has confirmed there are no plans to bring G.I. Joe: Retaliation movie figures across the pond. While Hasbro's position remains unchanged from last year, there were hopes the film's delay and 3-D conversion (in part to appeal to international movie-goers) would entice the toy maker to extend their Retaliation lineup into the United Kingdom.

G.I. JoeCon 2013 Exclusive Night Force Figures Revealed

The G.I. Joe Collectors' Club is slowly revealing photos of this year's 3-3/4-inch JoeCon exclusives. The G.I. Joe: Night Force vs. Cobra Demolitions Team set, dubbed Nocturnal Fire, includes 15 figures of which 10 are unique. So far the club has revealed Cobra Mortal, Cobra Letal and Frag-Viper from the Cobra team, and Charbroil, Muskrat and Psyche-Out from the Night Force side. Be sure to check in on the club's box set preview page each day for a new reveal. G.I. JoeCon 2013 runs April 4 - April 7 at the JW Marriott in Indianapolis.

G.I. Joe Deals at Amazon

We noticed a few good deals on G.I. Joe items at Amazon and wanted to pass them along. First, Amazon has its exclusive G.I. Joe: Retaliation sneak peek 4-pack in stock and the price has been taking a roller coaster ride for the last few days. We've seen it go from as low as $10 to as high as $40, so you'll want to keep an eye on it if you haven't picked one up yet. While none of the figures in the 4-pack are new, the stands and file cards are unique to the set. Amazon also has the 2-disc digital copy edition G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra DVD marked down to $5 (normally $34.98). The 2-disc set is about $2 less than the single disc version and includes a digital copy. A digital copy allows you to save a copy of the movie to your computer for easy viewing and transfer between your personal devices like an iPad or iPod and is a great way to take the movie with you on the go.

Deadline Looms for G.I. Joe Collectors' Club Subscription Service

The deadline to subscribe to the G.I. Joe Collectors' Club's Figures Subscription Service--midnight Central time September 4--is quickly approaching. If you were planning on "subbing-up" you'd better act quickly. While some figures may be made available at the club store for $32, only a subscription guarantees all 12 figures, plus the subscription-only thirteenth figure. It's also worth noting that according to the club "the deadline to sign-up for our Figure Subscription Service (FSS 1.0) is tonight" with the reference to FSS 1.0 and what we assume to be a hint (intentional or not) at additional subscription services in the future.

Kim "Jinx" Arashikage was released in the summer of 2012 as a convention exclusive at San Diego Comic-Con. Two versions of Jinx were produced: a primary deco version matching the classic red color style of the original 1987 figure and a variant version wearing a white shinobi shozoko. The variant features the unmasked portrait of actress Elodie Yung, who portrays the character in G.I. Joe: Retaliation. Both figures were available at the Hasbro Toy Shop booth (limited to three for the primary version and one for the variant, per attendee badge) at Comic-Con and later online at HasbroToyShop.com, in limited quantities.

Many of us are familiar with the red deco'ed version of Jinx and consider it the character's de facto look. If you're among that crowd, you'll be surprised to learn that Jinx debuted in Marvel's G.I. Joe A Real American Hero comics sporting a white shinobi shozoku with no mask and a long flowing ponytail. This first appearance makes the use of G.I. Joe: Retaliation actress Elodie Yung's portrait ideal, but a far cry from the red-clad, shaggy haired appearance we've become accustomed to, due in part to G.I. Joe: The Movie.

Collectors' Club Store Take Two

Were your glued to your computer on Friday obsessively refreshing your browser in hopes of getting your hands on a Footloose figure from the G.I. Joe Collectors' Club store that didn't go live, as promised? Yeah, us too. In an e-mail to members late Sunday night, club president Brian Savage stated that the club has corrected the issue that postponed Friday's store opening and they're set to open at noon Central Time, today. Again, members can purchase a loose, carded or signed carded (by voice actor Will Ryan) Footloose figure all of which are limit one per member account. Limits are strictly enforced, with a 25 percent administration fee being added to any order attempting to select more than one of each item so be careful; i.e., don't be greedy. In case you need a reminder, we created a calendar event to help you remember.

G.I. Joe Collectors' Club Store Re-Opens

The G.I. Joe Collectors' Club is finally opening its digital doors after a long hiatus as a result of a security breach. An e-mail from club president Brian Savage confirms the opening, today, at about noon Central Time. The first item up for grabs will be Footloose; in several flavors. Members can purchase a loose, carded or signed  carded (by voice actor Will Ryan) Footloose figure all of which are limit one per member account. Limits are strictly enforced, with a 25 percent administration fee being added to any order attempting to select more than one of each item.

Jinx's name embodies collector sentiment when it comes to the frustration felt in acquiring convention exclusive items from Hasbro. Many collectors feel jinxed because if you can't attend a convention or aren't incessantly checking Hasbro Top Shop after the con ends (which only has limited quantities that usually sell out within minutes), you're stuck paying aftermarket prices that are double or triple the retail cost.

Comic-Con 2012: Hasbro Booth Dioramas Video

Once again, we were amazed by the dioramas on display at the Hasbro booth at San Diego Comic-Con, this year. The dios were, by far, some of the most impressive toy-related displays at the show and awed many passers-by. Now, if only we had the space to build our own mountain-side ninja battle...

Comic-Con 2012: Hasbro Booth Video

While they didn't make any new reveals for a second consecutive year at Comic-Con, Hasbro had a strong G.I. Joe presence at the show. Shelves were packed with Joe figures, clothing, dioramas and there wave even a prop Arashikage motorcycle at the display. Unfortunately, the ninja bike was roped off, so there was no hope of us hopping on and taking it for a spin around the convention floor.
