Joe Con 2012: Hasbro’s G.I. Joe press images

Tweet

While I wasn’t able to attend the Con in person this year, JBL has had a lot of help from “on the scene” photographer Photonut!  However, he’s also got some help– Justin from Hunter PR has sent along these “official images” of items revealed at the 2012 Hasbro Convention presentation.

One of the biggest [...]

Joe Con 2012: Pics of the convention diorama!

Tweet

This is easily one of my favorite parts of the entire Joe Con experience.  Seriously– I LOVE the con diorama and every year that I’m fortunate enough to attend I snap far more pictures than I should of it.  There’s just something about seeing all of the figures that you’re anticipating purchasing in action– [...]

Joe Con 2012: Day 1 – unproduced G.I. Joe 30th Anniversary figures…

Tweet

Much like the Renegades images– this set just makes me a bit sad.  Some of the figures shown are ones that I was looking forward to since the 30th was announced.

Even the much-lamented Data Viper is a figure that piqued my curiosity.  However, as of now, none of these [...]

Joe Con 2012: Day 1 G.I. Joe Retaliation pics!

Tweet

Photonut is a MACHINE down at the con this year– cranking out images far faster than a certain “at home admin” can post them.  However, he came through with some great pics of the Day 1 Retaliation offerings from the Hasbro case.

Stay tuned for his post-Hasbro panel images later today.  The next wave [...]

Joe Con 2012: Parachute drop pics

Tweet

More images from Photonut– this time of the parachute drop and the Cobra Stealth Paratrooper figures!  It’s always a great way to start the convention– taking small plastic figures and chucking them off of a roof.  (I can recall the last time I was at a Joe Con in NOLA.  I swung my arm [...]

Joe Con 2012: Hasbro’s unproduced Renegades figures…

Tweet

Photonut is on the scene and been providing pics when he can.  (Plus, the admin is a bit late in getting these posted.)  Friday Hasbro unveiled part 1 of their “Vault”– a series of figures and vehicles that were in development but never saw final production.  Up first– the much lamented G.I. Joe: Renegades [...]

JoeCon 2012: Parachute figure revealed as Retaliation movie trooper!

Tweet

You’ve got to hand it to the Club sometimes.  (Yes, I did just say that.)  In the wake of the 11th hour rescheduling of the release of G.I. Joe Retaliation, the GIJCC found itself with a HUGE gap in its convention schedule.  However, the traditional parachute drop was added back and figures were produced [...]

JoeCon 2012: More in hand images from the G.I. Joe Collector’s Convention

Tweet

Photonut and Madmac braved the line for the Club store last night and were able to snag the convention exclusives for this year.   Being the Joe fans that they are those items were immediately freed from their plastic prisons and pictures were snapped!  Here’s what they brought back:

Annihilator 3-Pack (LE 650)

The official registration hasn’t opened yet but last night Golden Ticket holders were able to pick up their con sets and receive the attendee bonus exclusive item– the Russian repainted Snarler cycle with side car.

A quick check of the web revealed that the crew over at HISS Tank have rushed to get some [...]
