Can you believe it? This week marks the 6th Anniversary of G.I.Joe Resolute!
G.I.Joe: Resolute was an animated series that offered viewers a much more mature take on the G.I.Joe franchise. The series originally debuted on the internet, as clips that aired on Adult Swim Video. With a Content rating of TV-14V, it was clear to see why this series was a hit with fans, as it gave us all the “big kid version” of G.I.Joe that many of us had been waiting for. I’d even go as far as to say G.I.Joe Resolute is the best G.I.Joe movie out there to date.
Resolute spawned a line of figures, from single carded offerings, to comic packs and multi packs. This included Modern Era “Resolute” style figures of Cobra Commander, Cobra Trooper and Duke (single carded). A five-figure “Resolute” box set was also released, with Cobra Commander, Cobra B.A.T., Cobra Officer, Cobra Trooper and Duke, repainted in colors from the cartoon series. Two “Comic book 2-packs” were released, one with Destro and Shockblast, the other with Storm Shadow and Tunnel Rat. Both comic packs included Resolute comic books, with new stories by Mr. Larry Hama. The following year, in 2010, a Joe and Cobra Multi pack were released, giving fans many characters that may have not seen the light of day otherwise.

It is hard to believe that this coming April 26th will be the 6 year anniversary of G.I. Joe: Resolute. I recently popped in my DVD one past late night for the first time in years and let me tell you, it was amazing. Truly one of the coolest , if not the coolest animated G.I. Joe of all time. Nothing against the Sunbow, Dic, and Renegades series, but I think I speak for us all when I say that this is the G.I. Joe we always wanted in a live action film. This was the G.I. Joe that was in our imagination when we played with our Joes in the backyard.
If you haven't watched it in ages, you should. Has aged very well. A true classic in the G.I. Joe universe. I only wish that this could of become a series or a straight to home video ongoing franchise. Below , enjoy the drive down memory lane with the Resolute set figure reviews and the full Resolute movie as well. Be sure to share your thoughts watching it again and memories of 2009 when it first aired.

Cool , Had I of known you would of front paged I would of taken more than 5 min to write it up lol. I agree, this is the best gi joe movie we have seen. DVD sales were pretty strong for resolute, not sure why hasbro didn't do a ongoing straight to home video series at the very least.

I wish we were celebrating season 6 of G.I. Joe Resolute. What a great expression of the G.I.Joe brand Resolute was, if only it had gone further.
brock Samson says
Resolute was great, really showed what a great animated Joe could look like. Despite a few story quibbles, I think most people loved it.
On another note, what's up with that distortion in the middle of the video on the front page? There must be a better quality streaming version available somewhere, seems youtube is full of this crappy version.
Another cool thing was the original trailer for Resolute. Check it out below.
