Kotobukiya have been producing G.I. Joe statues in their Bishoujo line for a bit now.  They currently have pieces for Barnoness, Scarlett and Lady Jaye.  The Bishoujo line is purposely done in an anime style for female characters, as per their description for it:

The Bishoujo Statue is a series of statues based off of Shunya Yamashita’s illustrations of various movie, game, and comic characters in the Japanese bishoujo (young beautiful girls) style. All of these statues are 1/7 in scale and make a great collection when displayed together.

Kotobukiya recently sent us a couple pieces to take a look at.  Baroness – in her 25th Anniversary Blue color variant scheme, and Scarlett in a sky blue and silver palette.  Baroness also comes (but not featured here) in traditional black and Crimson Guard red.  Scarlett has a traditional color version and this one.  Lady Jaye, not featured here, is also available via a traditional color version.

All in all they are well done pieces.  You have to be into the look, they are very unique and won’t fit in all collections.  But if you like to mix it up with different incarnations of G.I. Joe on your shelves, these will add something new for sure.

Read on to check out our shots, all are available at select retailers now!

These were on Target.com for pre-order earlier this week for about 30 seconds. They should be hitting shelves on August 14th, though they are in store and out on shelves in some areas now. Some let you buy them, others enforce the street date. Each figure is coming packed in it’s own case, so each store should have at least 6 of each, hopefully more.

under G.I. Joe Movie

It has been a roller-coaster ride. Various script ideas, cast changes, crew changes, director changes, delays, contingencies and many more. But finally, finally a 3rd G.I. Joe live action movie is being made and the filming starts today.

Directed by Robert Schwentke, G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes principal photography is set to take place from mid-October to early-December in Vancouver, Canada. Starring popular heartthrob Henry Golding as the titular character, the story for this new movie is written by Evan Spiliotopoulos with Bruce Lee films in mind.

The plot is rumored to be as follows (Warning: Possible Spoilers):

“When we meet this new, younger Snake Eyes, it’ll be as a street fighter in Peru. Driven by the desire to avenge the death of his father, Snake Eyes is apparently a man on the move until he ends up in Japan, where he and his best friend, Tommy, aka Storm Shadow, will begin their training with the Arashikage Clan. The film will see at least 3 of the clan’s legendary masters as they train Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow as Hard Master, Soft Master and Blind Master are all set to appear. Also present at the Arashikage compound is the film’s female lead, Akita. In comic continuity, Junko Akita was an apprentice and lover of Storm Shadow; here she is the head of security and will be a love interest for Snake Eyes.”

“Of course if it’s a GI Joe movie, Cobra must somehow be present and in this instance their presence is made manifest in what appears to be a character created for the film: Kenta. Kenta is revealed to Storm Shadow’s brother who has long since left his family, the Arashikage, and joined with a rival ninja clan, the Kurayami. It is Kenta who attempts to lure Snake Eyes away from the Arashikage and into a terrorist plot being devised by Cobra. We won’t delve too deeply into spoiler territory here, but we can see what side of things Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow will take and this film certainly seems to set the stage for one of the great comic book rivalries.”

Joining hands with Mr. Golding are Andrew Koji (Storm Shadow), Iko Uwais (Hard Master), Ursula Corbero (The Baroness), Samara Weaving (Scarlett), Takehiro Hira (Kenta?), and Haruka Abe (Junko Akita?).

Hasbro, Skydance and MGM will co-produce the movie, along with Paramount Pictures and Grackle Bird Productions.

As stated above, filming of G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes (under the working title ‘Grackle Bird’) will take place from October 15th to December 6th for an October 16th, 2020 release.
