Hot Toys Unveils G.I. Joe: Retaliation Storm Shadow Figure

February 6, 2013

Snake Eyes, now, has his nemesis. The second figure in Hot Toys' 1/6-scale G.I. Joe: Retaliation line is Storm Shadow. Storm Shadow is styled after actor Lee Byung Hun's portrayal of the Cobra ninja in Paramount's upcoming G.I. Joe movie and includes both an unmasked and masked portrait. The figure comes on a true-type body with 30 points-of-articulation and includes several pairs of interchangeable hands, two metal swords with sheaths, two daggers, three darts and a pistol. Look for Storm Shadow to start shipping in the second quarter of 2013.

First Glimpse at Hot Toys' G.I. Joe: Retaliation Roadblock

January 13, 2013

Hot Toys has unveiled some of their work-in-progress projects for 2013, giving us our first glimpse of their G.I. Joe: Retaliation Roadblock and Storm Shadow figures. Based on the likenesses of actors Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Byung-Hun Lee, respectively, the figures are mixed in with a hodgepodge of other licensed work and are a difficult to make out. However, a keen eye will spot the bald-headed, muscular figure with tattooed arms, armor-protected upper torso and camouflaged pants, and white-clad ninja figure equipped with a sword (good eye @EopieHerder) directly to the right of The Bat from The Dark Knight Rises. Release dates for Roadblock and Storm Shadow haven't been confirmed at this time, but those anxious to start their Hot Toys G.I. Joe: Retaliation collection can pre-order Snake Eyes, who went on sale last week.

Hot Toys Announces Additional G.I Joe: Retaliation Figures

January 2, 2013

It appears Hot Toys' reveal of Snake Eyes, in their newly announced G.I. Joe: Retaliation line, was just an appetizer for a grander main course.

"After our launch of the Snake Eyes collectible last week, some fans may wish to have more collectibles of different characters from the upcoming G.I. Joe Retaliation movie. Good news for fans - we are going to launch the collectible figures of Joe Colton, Roadblock and Storm Shadow featuring the likeness of talents."
Noticeably missing for the list is Channing Tatum's Duke, but we suspect that may change. Start saving those pennies now!
