Fans of custom figures in the G.I. Joe community are probably familiar with the name “Kevin Watts.” Know for his imaginative parts use and mind-blowing painting skills, Kevin is the mastermind behind the Canv-HISS project showcased at the 2013 G.I. Joe Collector’s Convention. He’s also the project lead behind last year’s amazing Metal-Head fan [...]

I’m a sucker for good G.I. Joe artwork. As such, you can imagine my reaction when I saw the following poster on Larry Hama’s Facebook page a few days ago. This image is literally a “who’s who” of the Joes that I grew up with. From Gung-Ho to Clutch to Keel Haul, it’s [...] I promised yesterday that I’d go back and take pictures of the remaining custom figures on display at JoeCon. Thankfully, there was enough of a break in the schedule today that I was able to fulfill that particular promise. Again, the custom work by these folks is not to be underestimated! Just some truly [...] In a previous JoeCon post I gushed for a bit over the custom G.I. Joe figures on display at the show. If you thought the gushing was over, think again as this post covers one of my other favorite things here– the diorama displays. This year at JoeCon there was no big Hasbro G.I.

(Just a hack writer who likes to shoot pics of figures and offer opinions under the guise of a “review.”) However, I am in awe of the creativity and inventiveness of the [...] 
It’s time for the final image in Twitziller‘s fantastic “40 Reasons to be Excited for G.I. Joe Retaliation” series with the best reason of them all – G.I. Joe!
Some things just speak for themselves. When Larry Hama first introduced Joe Colton into the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero title I [...] That’s right– today is March 28, 2013! It’s the premiere of G.I. Joe Retaliation!!!! We’ve waited months for this and now the day has finally arrived. This weekend fans will flock to see that latest live action adventure of our favorite Real American Hero on the big screen and I have the feeling [...] 
Twitziller nears the conclusion of his “40 Reasons to Be Excited for G.I. Joe Retaliation” series with “battle kata gear.” Honestly this is a tricky one to write up because it’s not really overtly featured in the film. The Battle Kata Roadblock figure showcased the full extend of the variable weapons system wielded [...] While tomorrow is the official release date, a few theater chains across the US had early screenings of G.I. Joe Retaliation last night and more showings this evening. With showings come comments and reviews– many from site owners and long-time Joe fans. In order to give fans a fair picture of the overall [...] 
Twitziller counts down the final days to G.I. Joe Retaliation‘s full release in the US with “lighting”!
In film, lighting is one of the myriad tools available to a director to paint a scene. In the black and white era, it provided a necessary contrast and was used to place subtle [...] |
