It had to happen sooner rather than later!
As part of the process of improving the functionality of the site, JBL has received a bit of a face lift. Gone is the old dark look that the site enjoyed for the past 4 years and in its place is a much brighter friendly design. It’s not finished and it’s not final as we have a pretty amazing face lift in the works. This is a bit of a “work in progress” and will be updated frequently in an effort to refine the sites content and layout into a much more efficient package.
Until then, feel free to voice any and all thoughts about this latest look in the forums!
Thanks to the generosity of WinterGod and ACToys.net, Cmderinchief has posted “in hand” pics of the forthcoming GIJoe: Rise of Cobra movie Cobra Commander figure!
