G.I. JOE INVADES
Justin’s posted a review of DVD Battle Pack #5 – “Best of the 80’s” over at GeneralsJoes.com which showcases the final assembled form of the “build-a-prop” MASS Device. However, it seems that this final set is proving particularly hard to find in stores right now due to the low number of sets included in the final case packs. With significant numbers of the first four sets still sitting on store shelves, are fans able to complete their MASS Devices or is the “thrill of the hunt” rapidly wearing off?

Sideshow Collectibles has posted pre-orders for the Regular and Exclusive edition 12″ COBRA Commander figures. The exclusive edition comes with a snake-headed staff with concealed blade only seen in that version. For whatever reason the exclusive and standard editions are both the same price, $99.99.
The regular version of the 12″ Snake Eyes also has a pre-order up at $119.99, the exclusive version of everyone’s favorite G.I. Joe ninja has sold out. More pictures have been posted at the previous links as well. Thanks to Felix from the JBL forums for the information.
