The “G.I. Joe Stop-Motion Film Festival” kicks off in Denver this September and Collider.com has the exclusive reveal of our announcement trailer! Since 2005, this festival has been displaying the best indie animators who bring their fan-favorite action figures to life!

The most recent Transformers Vs. G.I. Joe comic from IDW had a unique look and story that many fans dig. Unfortunately it wouldn’t translate well into fully functioning figures as we know them. In comes Kidrobot with a collection of non-Transforming items to celebrate the series. They have blind-box Vinyl Mini Series figures which stand 3 inches tall, pins, 7 Inch Vinyls, and keychains. All feature Kidrobot’s art style that captures the look and feel of the book.
We’ve run a case of the Vinyl Mini Series figures through the motions which shows off all of the unique molds. There are several chases that eluded us but that’s what happens with blind box figs even if you grab a case these days. Since the theme of this is Transformers Vs. G.I. Joe, we figured we’d go along with it. The G.I. Joe themed pictures from the set are here on HissTank after the break. The Transformers themed pictures from the case are up on our network site TFW2005.com, which you can see right here!
All of these are courtesy of and available at Entertainment Earth right now!

The man known as Buzzer is one of the most feared and dangerous members of the Dreadnok gang.
Before joining the Dreadnoks, he was Dick Blinken-Smythe, a respected Cambridge sociology don, husband, and soon-to-be father. How did one trip into the Australian Outback transform him into one of the most notorious members of the Dreadnok organization?
