The Hasbro booth has apparently started displaying some of the incredible character artwork from the upcoming Resolute animated series. They have inputs up for Duke, Firefly, Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Airborne, Storm Shadow and Destro. Some are more revealed than others. JBL is hard at work attempting to get full pictures of all artwork, but until we do, you can check out Hisstank.com and Entertainment News International to get some glimpses of the great designs that are going into this series.
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.
