I don't know if this is old news, but there's a new, improved Snake Eyes with Timber. The new Snake Eyes has a smaller crotch joint, which means more poseability, and the foot peg stand has 2 holes instead of one. Click for Ebay linkCobra Claw (the jet powered Hang glider) and the Cobra Stinger Jeep are confirmed. There will also be a new SDCC exclusive figure. toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=9&itemid=12783Also, it's been posted on PTK forums that there will be corrected(?) versions of Flint, Serpentor and Zartan. It's supposed to be part of Hasbro's Q & A but I haven't been able to find the source of the story. Wave 5 of the 2packs (the Falcon and Nemesis Enforcer wave) have yet to be actually confirmed or denied. Looks like BBTS jumped the gun on the announcement. Hasbro will make it official later on.. supposedly.. Gold |

re: cartoon accurate Hawk
In the comics Hawk always had blonde hair since issue #1. I'm just wondering why Hasbro made it brown . I know the comic version came out before the version 2 toy.

Maybe they decided to change Hawk so he doesn't look like too much like Duke? Gold |

sirs, does any one of you know how much the g.i. joe vehicles are in nova fontana in greenhills, i.e. the general, phantom x-29, ice sabre ,etc. I would really like to know, at the cost of being shot for mentioning another store. since i was young I really wanted a g.i. joe vehicle to call my own ( :'(only figures  ). I used to remember passing "the general" vehicle set and wanting it with all of my might. |

I don't recall seeing any of the old Joe vehicles in the new Nova Fontana (now relocated at the old Aristocrat restaurant) last time I went there.
I did get the Phantom X-19 in 2000 for 1200PhP (before they moved), MISB but the box was pretty water damaged. No idea about the other Joe vehicles though.

Yep, the whole thing is MISB, so it was complete. hey guys did you send out your doc mail ins already? Sigh, i really, really hate the fact that the "Rescue Doc" promo is limited to the USA only, no luck ordering it from the Philippines. I guess it's either Evilbay or try hoping that we get it locally (Hasbro "limited" Marvel Legends have popped up now and again so there's always chance). Supposedly, the Doc mail-in figures start coming out in May, and the promo runs all the way to August(I think?). Gold |

This is interesting. Future "international" versions of Vipers and Wildbill wave will have generic cardbacks for Joe and Cobra. Weird. Part of the strong selling point is the vintage-styled cardback art, why mess with it? toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=9&itemid=12751I really hope future local stocks don't look like this. Gold |
