Spotted Online – G.I. Joe Retaliation Action Figures Revealed
Getting beyond the fact that the first movie was so terrible that it almost made Michael Bay’s Transformers look like the greatest film ever, I will admit that some of the revealed G.I. Joe Retaliation action figures look pretty sweet. My top two picks have to be Cobra Commander and the Cobra Trooper, but that Zartan also looks a lot nicer than I was expecting from the movie series.
Take a look at this post at Tomopop and this post at Toy News International for the full reveal of a handful of action figures. I suspect that I’ll see a lot more at the New York Toy Fair when I attend Hasbro’s “Fan Media” event next weekend.

Whoa, Lok! That second HISS Tank is Shockwave? Nice!
Is he a Deceptobot transformicon thing? 🙂
I don’t collect Transformers so I don’t know which one it’s supposed to be but yeah, it’s a Joe-TF mash-up like the StarScream SkyStriker from last year’s SDCC.
