under G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary

Yo joe! It’s been a while since we’ve had any GI Joe toys to hunt for at retail but that’s about to change! Joebros has spotted the 2015 GI Joe 50th Anniversary sets at a Toys R Us in Los Angeles, California. More info:

Found the 2-packs ($12.99), Silent Strike ($59.99) and Desert Dual ($49.99) in CA. The store I found them at only received ONE case of each. The 2-packs are 8 to a case (2 of each, except Gung-Ho/Shadow Guard and Blowtorch/Croc Master are 1 per), Silent Strike is 2 per and Desert Dual is 3 per

There’s also been recent sightings in Texas, so hopefully it won’t be too much longer before these arrive at all Toys R Us stores. Happy hunting!

EDIT: It turns out Ramielschild made the 1st sighting in Texas. Have you found these new Joes yet? Post your sightings in our GI Joe sightings forums! Like to snap photos of your Joes? Post your GI Joe 50th Anniversary 2015 photos here!

Yesterday via the TLS Website came a sneak peek of the 2nd wave of G.I.Joe Offerings from The Loyal Subjects!

In the images you can see Blowtorch which we already shared with you, alongside NEW images of Major bludd, a Cobra FANG, a G.I.Joe VAMP and a G.I.Joe Observation Tower! Too cool! Here’s the scoop from TLS –

We are as pleased as Duke – standing victorious on the battlefield watching the defeated COBRA scurry away, licking their wounds – to announce the sneak peek of G.I. Joe Wave 2 Action Vinyls!  2 years in the making!  We had to pivot a couple times but we found that magic formula, one worthy of the Action Vinyls stamp!  These Action Heros are next level; removable masks, helmets, 12 points of articulation, several signature accessories and vehicles.  Whaaaa?!  Vehicles?!  Yes, vehicles!  We’re bringing in the heavy artillery here, the kind of ammo that will make the Joe fans proud.  Targetting a latter Holiday release date at your favorite retailers including Hot Topic, B&N, Hastings and BAM.  Yo! Joe!  3.2″ Action Vinyls baby!

Thanks to Steve Johnson, we now have an image of Blowtorch, the G.I.Joe Flamethrower from the upcoming second wave of G.I.Joe Vinyl figures from our friends at The Loyal Subjects. As you can see from the image, the next wave of TLS G.I.Joe figures will have a new body style and are sure to be a hit, just as the first wave was.

We’re sure to see more awesomeness from The Loyal Subjects throughout the week, so make sure to keep it locked for the best coverage from SDCC 2o15 on the internet!

With both the SDCC 2015 & 50th Anniversary G.I.Joe offerings hitting eBay, it’s nice to get a look at what the upcoming assortment of figures will look like when painted and packed. Thanks to Hasbro, we have a sneak peek at the upcoming G.I.Joe 50th Anniversary Versus 2 Packs in package!

The G.I. Joe team continues their ongoing battle against the Cobra organization this summer in our “Versus” 2-packs. Enjoy your first look at the packaged samples for these key showdowns in the “Joe vs. Cobra” conflict:

  • CLASSIC CLASH: Spirit Iron-Knife vs. Storm Shadow
  • MARINE DEVASTATION: Gung-Ho vs. Cobra Shadow Guard
  • HUNT FOR COBRA COMMANDER: Shipwreck vs. Cobra Commander
  • TROOP BUILD-UP: Steel Brigade vs. Iron Grenadier
  • SWAMP STEAM: Blowtorch vs. Croc Master

Look for these “Versus” 2-packs at your local Toys ‘R Us store, and online at BigBadToyStore.com in early August!

under G.I. Joe Pursuit of Cobra

For you hunters out there, this bit of news will definitely interest you. Over the last week, many members of the Hisstank.com forums have reported finding G.I.Joe Pursuit of Cobra figures being stocked at their local Toys’R’Us stores across the United States. The case assortment being found, for the most part, includes –

Now, please keep in mind that this is more than likely the results of a warehouse find/flush being distributed to stores, so once they’re gone, they’re gone. Since Blowtorch and General Hawk are both readily available in the G.I.Joe 50th Anniversary Assortment, this assortment benefits those who would rather have the figures single carded, or who are completists and missed out on the initial POC offerings, or just really, really want more Jungle B.A.T.s!

You can follow the discussion already in progress after the break. Don’t forget to post your local finds on the Hisstank.com Sightings Forums!
