So it looks like the much anticipated 6″ G.I. Joe line is finally going to make it’s way to retail in 2020. Although Hasbro has not officially confirmed this information there are very strong rumors of retail preorders for the new line called G.I. Joe Classified!

Actor Henry Golding (Snake Eyes) has revealed the official movie logo during the principal photography initiation in Japan.
Titled as Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins, it refers back to the IDW comic book series of the same name.
“It’s official “Snake Eyes: G.I.Joe origins” is under way in Japan. What we have planned for everybody, will excite new and old fans alike. Watch this space”
Selected members of the cast and key crew received a traditional blessing at the Hie-Jinja Shrine in Tokyo on Friday, before the before shooting. Cast in attendance at the ceremony included Golding, Andrew Koji, Haruka Abe, Iko Uwais, Takehiro Hira, and director Robert Schwentke (“The Captain”). “Ready or Not” star, Samara Weaving recently joined the cast, but was not at the temple.
From Paramount Pictures:
Introducing the cast and crew of #SnakeEyes at the start of production in Japan: @Henry Golding (Snake Eyes), Andrew Koji (Storm Shadow), Haruka Abe (Akiko), Takehiro Hira (Kenta), Stunt Coordinator Kenji Tanigaki, and Director Robert Schwentke. Coming to theatres this year.
We have received a reliable word regarding a confirmed partnership between Hasbro and Jazwares for the G.I. Joe Franchise.
At the moment, we do not have a lot of information regarding the licensing agreement, but we can confirm that the big reveal is set to take place during this year’s Toy Fair.
Since Hasbro is directly manufacturing G.I. Joe toys, it is likely that Jazwares will contribute from the accessory front. These kind of agreements are not new for both companies as they worked together recently for the Nerf toy line where Jazwares produced additional accessories for the hit action series.
Jazwares 4-Inch and 6-Inch toylines for the Fortnite franchise is a super hit among Fortnite fans and G.I. Joe fans alike. What the two companies are cooking under wraps, will surely be a surprise this year.

Speaking to Entertainment Ireland, G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes star Henry Golding confirmed that the movie will indeed be a reboot to the G.I. Joe Live Action Movie Franchise.
“Snake Eyes is absolutely insane, phenomenal conception of Robert Schwentke and everybody at Paramount. It is the origin story and we’re rebooting G.I. Joe as everybody knows it; starting fresh and giving it much more of a storyline and a character-based kind of story to really kick things off.”
Elaborating further, the actor stated.
“Giving it a heart, I think, is what’s most important. Especially with the character that is so beloved and so mysterious in many ways; one that was never able to sort of express himself. So, this is the first time where I think that people will be sort of drawn to Snake Eyes as a character rather than as a weapon.”
Speaking about the production schedule:
“I’m on day-19 over in Vancouver, right now. So, we’ve been filming these insane action sequences and we’ve got a crack team from Japan and Vancouver on board. So, it really is wonderfully shot and I’m so excited to share more but I can’t. Do keep eyes out there.
