I received my Snarler from HTS last week and I LOVE it! I’ve taken some pics and wrote up a short review to tide us over until “The Boss” gets his posted. Head over to Mission Debriefing to check it out!

Rise of Cobra Wave 4 Kamakura
I’ll admit it — I’m an unabashed Kamakura fan. I like the concept, I loved Brandon Jerwa’s FANTASTIC “Master & Apprentice” mini-series, and I’ve liked every 3.75″ figure of the character made to date. So, imagine my giddiness (yes, I just said that) when I checked HasbroToyShop.com this morning and saw that the Wave 4 figures are now available for pre-order!
No idea on when they’ll be arriving but Kamakura cannot get here soon enough!! (Just when I was starting to shoot review pics again too… )
Remember, the discount code “GIJoe10” is still good for 10% off!
Hasbro's Q & A sessions
It’s that time again– when JBL board members can submit questions for the next round of Hasbro’s bi-monthly Q & A sessions!
Have a burning question about a particular action figure? Want to know the low-down on a store exclusive? Curious as to when you’ll be able to buy your adult-sized “Rise of Cobra” bed sheets?
Submit your question in the Q & A submission thread! Submissions will be accepted until 6pm CST on Monday, September 7, 2009!
Happy Birthday!!
I received a message from our very own Gen. Hawk AKA Justin Bell of GeneralsJoes.com that his wife had their second daughter! Her name is Allison. Mother and Daughter are doing well.
You can pat Justin on the back here, I will be waiting on my cigar Justin.
Remember the end of “Raiders of the Lost Ark”? The final scene where the Ark is crated up and hauled off into a seemingly endless warehouse full of other boxes- apparently never to be seen again?
Such is the fate of the “Rise of Cobra” two packs on Walmart.com. They don’t show up under the “action figures” or “G.I. Joe” categories and they do not show up if any of the character names are searched.
Thanks to our sister-site GeneralsJoes.com, we at least have links to the sold-out products. (They were in stock for all of one day.)
JBL board member Alexx is back with more reviews of recent “Rise of Cobra” figures. Mixing humor with practicality, his observations on these new releases are sure to bring a smile to the face of any Joe fan.
You can check out these fan reviews and more in the Mission Debriefing forum!
For those of you who are still recovering from the onslaught of new products that were shown at the 2009 Collector’s Convention, I have some good news!

For those of you who did not attend the 2009 Collector’s Convention and still want to own the exclusives, there’s good news!
Here is what is left from this year’s convention sets and exclusives. In order to get this info out faster, I have left out the pictures. Go to GIJoeClub.com/shop and search for 2009 and they will all come up.
Also, we have the latest wave of Singles Figures in stock as well!
I have noted how many are left of the original issue. Don’t delay!
