Major Bludd, Roadblock v2, Arctic Trooper Snake Eyes, Cobra Commander w/ MASS crystals, Tiger Force Flint, Python Patrol Officer, and the Baroness are some of the latest figures in the 25A style that are hitting store shelves!
They’ve all just been reviewed at the 25th Anniversary Index!
Wild Bill, HISS driver, Cobra Viper, Snake Eyes, Spirit, and Duke (w/ jetpack) join the ranks of the 25th Anniversary collection in 2008 wave 3!
The ranks of both GIJoe and Cobra are bolstered in this latest wave of 25A action figures! Cobra gains two signature troopers, GIJoe adds a helicopter pilot, tracker, and another version of everyone’s favorite commando to the ranks. Even Duke gets a face-lift and some slick new gear in his latest incarnation!

The first mail-away premium of the 25th Anniversary line has arrived!
Debuting in 1983, Carl “Doc” Greer immediately became a fan-favorite character. With key appearances in both the Marvel Comics series as well as the Sunbow animated cartoon, the khaki-clad medic became a staple in many GIJoe collections. It seemed only fitting when Hasbro announced that Doc would be the first mail-away figure of the line that commerated two-and-a-half decades of everyone’s favorite “Real American Heroes”.

The Target-exclusive vehicle & driver sets have been reviewed!
Retail giant Target has long since been an advocate for the GIJoe brand. With the 25th Anniversary line hitting store shelves it seemed only fitting that the Minnesota-based retailer be granted a few exclusive items– and what exclusives they are! The AWE Striker w/ Crankcase, the venerable Cobra HISS w/ vehicle driver, and the Night Specter w/ Grand Slam are disappearing from toy shelves as you read this.

This time around, Fred & Justin take a look at 2008 wave 2 featuring Battle Armor Cobra Commander, Rock ‘n Roll, and Torpedo. It’s not the largest wave released in the anniversary line but it contains three figures that are sure to leave an impression on any GIJoe fan!
Plus, 2008 wave 1 has finally been posted!

Not even a nearly total computer systems crash could delay these reviews!
Wave 3 of the 25th Anniversary comic packs is the first assortment to feature all-new comic stories from GIJoe master scribe Larry Hama. New tales featuring Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Tomax, Xamot, and even Scarface are found in the latest wave of comic packs to hit store shelves. New figures and new comics?!! It’s a winning combination!

The “tag-team” reviews are back!
Justin and Fred take a look at the newly-released 25th Anniversary comic packs #1, #14, #21, and #24! This time, however, they brought along a third in the form of Scott “madmac41” McAllister– as the “terrible trio” takes on comic pack #30 featuring the Dreadnoks!
It’s all in the newly created 25th Anniversary Comic Pack Index here at JBL!
It’s the end of 2007 and Hasbro has released one more wave (technically two) of figure for those last minute Christmas shoppers! Wave 4, a series of eight previously released Battle Pack figures, consists of Cobra Air Trooper, Cobra Commander, Destro, Duke, Gung-Ho, Roadblock, Scarlett, and Storm Shadow. It’s a perfect fit for those fans who are maintaining a collection of all of the carded figures. As these figures have been previously reviewed, I’ve posted a gallery of the images of the carded figures in the 25th Anniversary Review Index.
Also, I’ve managed to find most of Wave 5 so look for reviews of the Crimson Guard, Flash, and Snow Job soon!
