GI Joe Pursuit Of Cobra Jungle Assault Storm Shadow Reviewed
Revealed at JoeCon2009, the Jungle Assault Storm Shadow has yet to be released. With plenty samples available since the end of last year, this figure was seemingly ready to go for sale at retail(albeit the packaging never showed up, just the artwork at JoeCon last year). Could Storm Shadow(Jungle Assault) be pushed back until spring 2011, like the Shadow Tracker and some other figures from the GI Joe Pursuit of Cobra line?
Jungle Assault Storm Shadow features a body made from parts of Resolute Storm Shadow and Arctic Assault Storm Shadow from the Rise of Cobra line. What we end up with is a Storm Shadow that definitely looks the part of a jungle commando, armed to the teeth to wreck havoc. Whether this figure will reach retail stores or not will be revealed soon at JoeCon, but until then, hit the discuss button to read the review! [Read more…]

GI Joe Renegades Will Premiere On The HUB This Fall According To Jeff Labovitz Of Hasbro
According to an article by The Herald News, GI Joe Renegades will premiere in Fall on The HUB. The Herald News spoke with Jeff Labovitz of Hasbro:
Larrry Hama, a legend in the G.I. Joe comic world, will pen a new comic book series for publisher IDW that will be launched this fall, and Labovitz said kids and fans will get to see a new G.I. Joe animated series this fall on the new HUB network.With Michael Bell auditioning for the role of General Hawk in the new series late last year, Eric Bauza auditioning for Tunnel Rat earlier this year, and recent trade mark applications it’s safe to say that the series in question is GI Joe Renegades.
