Hasbro’s official GIJOE Facebook page and twitter have posted an update concerning the release of the GIJOE Classified Target Exclusive Cobra Island Sets to the public. Hasbro now states that the new Street Date will be 8/1 meaning these will be available this Saturday both in store and back up for preorder on Target.com
On a side note this is good news for most of us. However I hope this was communicated to all the Target store who currently have a Street Date of August 14th and most of them have these sets in stock sitting in their back rooms. Some are even breaking street dates and selling the sets now. How many of each figure each store will be receiving and what will be left over for us to buy this Saturday is yet to be determined.
There have been multiple product leaks: Target items, The Amazon.com Exclusve Storm Shadow, exclusive Walmart Retro items and the exclusive Pulse September items including Pimp Daddy Destro are all over the web for sale from scalpers way ahead of street dates.
Official Update Below
“LATEST UPDATE FROM THE G.I. JOEs: Mainframe was able to get us a map of Cobra Island before we infiltrate! SPECIAL MISSION: COBRA ISLAND Classified Series Collection will now be available in stores on 8/1 and online on 8/14 only at @Target”

Oooo....finally some real COBRA troopers as army builders. AND a Baroness
Dod Ear says
Some of these look really nice (especially Baroness) - does anyone else feel like just about all of them are missing paint apps though?

I think all of them look great, except Roadblock.
The only bad thing about them is being Target exclusives. If there's one store worse than Walmart with exclusives and preorders its Target.

There is the token 6" Scale Vehicle

Cobra Trooper is looking good
Jay West says
Saw these and thought it was early in the line for Heavy Duty. Saw it was Roadblock and was like...uh...
jscott991 says
I hope someone can find links for these in advance.

would be nice, but in this state of OK, these never see the light of day, unless your in a big city spawn camping the store, and forget about online instant sold out. guess my $ will be on vintage again.
