Baroness Pop Culture Shock Statue Preorder Now Live

Posted on April 25, 2019 at 4:18 pm by DESTRO under G.I. Joe Statues

Sideshow and Pop Culture Shock Collectibles present the Baroness 1:4 Scale Statue, fighting for Cobra against your brigade of G.I. Joe collectibles.

The Baroness Statue measures 22” tall as the ruthless lieutenant straddles the turret cannon of the Moray while it sinks beneath the water. Blue translucent waves churn against the red hydrofoil as Baroness stands her ground, waiting for extraction from the battle against G.I. Joe.

The Baroness features an entirely sculpted costume inspired by her classic animated appearance. Her sleek black catsuit, boots, and grey gloves have dynamic textures that mimic the movement of real fabric, along with grey piping accents for detail. Her determined portrait includes her famous black-rimmed glasses, while red lipstick and the Cobra logo on her chest add a pop of color to her dark look. The Baroness is armed with a pistol and rifle, making this femme fatale a dangerous beauty to behold.

The Exclusive Edition of the Baroness 1:4 Scale Statue includes an alternate smirking portrait with dramatic, windswept hair. Give the Baroness some added attitude with this exclusive display option.

Carry out Cobra’s latest battle plans and enlist the Baroness 1:4 Scale Statue from PCS Collectibles in your G.I. Joe collection today!

HASBRO AND ASICS TEAM UP FOR G.I. JOE SHOE LINE

HASBRO AND ASICS TEAM UP FOR G.I. JOE SHOE LINE

NOW AVAILABLE EXCULSIVELY AT FOOT LOCKER

Limited edition GEL-LYTE III shoes inspired by iconic G.I. Joe characters Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes; New Era and Hex offer apparel and accessories to complete the look

(PAWTUCKET, R.I. – Feb. 22, 2019) – Global play and entertainment group Hasbro Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS) today announced a collaboration with footwear brand ASICS to create all-new colorways inspired by two fan-favorite G.I. Joe characters: Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes. The special edition GEL-LYTE III® shoes and coordinating apparel and accessories from New Era and Hex will be available exclusively at Foot Locker (NYSE: FL) stores worldwide February 22, 2019.

The line is inspired by an epic chapter in the G.I. Joe lore: the rivalry between Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes. Once brothers in arms as part of the Arashikage Clan, they find themselves on opposing sides of the struggle between G.I. Joe and Cobra. Now Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes each adorn their own GEL-LYTE® III shoe designed by world renowned pop artist Anderson Bluu. Uncompromising on style and comfort, the GEL-LYTE® III boasts iconic and innovative design that wouldn’t be complete without the split tongue and ASICS’ famous GEL® technology cushioning; a silicone-like material that effectively absorbs shock and protects the feet from high-impact strikes.

The black Snake Eyes model features a crystal rubber outsole with a discovery element, premium emblem and reflective detailing with black leather; the model is elevated and modernized with custom art on the insert. The white Storm Shadow model features a crystal rubber outsole which masks the character beneath while the premium emblem detailing grounds the model in the story. Through the intertwining of story and design aesthetic the model is elevated and modernized with custom art on the insert. On the bottom of both shoe models is an iced outsole revealing Zartan – a shadowy figure who plays a key part in the Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow story.

“ASICS has a solid reputation of launching innovative designs to consumers across the globe and we are proud to bring G.I. Joe characters to life in an entirely original way,” said Casey Collins, General Manager and Senior Vice President of Entertainment and Licensing at Hasbro. “We know fans and collectors will appreciate the care and detail ASICS has taken in every aspect of the release from the shoe detailing to the packaging.”

“We were inspired by the story of Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes to create these shoes in collaboration with Hasbro,” said Lindsey Sweeney, Global GM Sportstyle Footwear, ASICS. “The characters represent a true Yin and Yang – a duality and symmetry that link their lives together – and we were excited to take that inspiration to our GEL-LYTE III® model.”

The ASICS x G.I. JOE shoes will be sold exclusively at FootLocker.com and select POP by Foot Locker doors because Knowing is Half the Battle.

Snake Eyes G.I. Joe Movie Ray Park Out As Snake Eyes

Posted on December 10, 2018 at 6:14 pm by DESTRO under G.I. Joe Movie

Over the weekend, producer Lorenzo DiBonaventura spoke to /Film and asked him about the upcoming Snake Eyes spin-off film. Will Ray Park take on the role of Snake Eyes again?

“Probably not, because we are going to the origin story,” Di Bonaventura said. “As you know in the comic book, you saw his face. And it is, I’ll say, the formation of a hero. So you’ve got to see somebody and it can’t be Ray’s age, unfortunately.”

Not sure if this means a “Veitnam styled” Snake Eyes or young in training style story. Stay tuned as more details unfold.

Posted on November 30, 2018 at 10:00 am by DESTRO under Compatible Military Toys

ACID RAIN WORLD FAV-A02 Field Flakbike FB7f

The Flakbike FB7 is one of the oldest military machines still operated by the Agurts military. This is the first transformable vehicle developed after the catastrophic end of WWII.
The FB7 has 2 modes, the mobile bike mode and the walker artillery mode. The FB7 is typically seen in its bike mode piloted by a single operator, with cargo space in the rear for additional personnel or haulage. In bike mode, the FB7has no offensive capabilities and offers little protection, it’s heavy tracks may affect its speed but it also enables the vehicle to traverse hostile environments with rough terrain.

When deployed into artillery mode, the FB7 transforms into a bipedal long range artillery cannon. The legs are mainly used for targeting adjustments, mobility in artillery mode is very limited. These cannons can deal devastating damage to enemies from considerable range.
