GeneralsJoes Reviews Transformers Prime: Darkness Rising DVD

What’s this?  A Transformers review on a G.I. Joe site?  Gary from What’s on Joe Mind would be appalled.

Truth be told, as much as I ranted on and on about the wonder that is G.I. Joe: Renegades, The Hub has also brought a great Transformers animated series to existence as well in the form of Transformers Prime.  With some great production values, an awesome voice cast, and some impressive animation, the first 5-part series of Transformers Prime has been assembled as one feature length animated movie!

Priced at $14.97 it’s a great deal, and even includes some special content.  To see the full review click the link below!

Transformers: Prime – Darkness Rising arrives on DVD December 6th

Like many other Joe fans out there I was pretty depressed about the ultimate fate of G.I. Joe: Renegades on The Hub.  But the fact remains that Transformers: Prime currently airing on The Hub is a pretty fun animated series in its own right, and the landmark 5-part mini-series that started it all comes to DVD on December 6th as a full-length movie event!

I plan on reviewing the DVD upon release, but also figured G.I. Joe fans out there might want to be kept up to date on release information as well.  Shout! Factory has released a series of Trailers and Clips to showcase the animated series as the release date draws closer.  Check them all out after the jump!

One of the brains behind SK Omega speaks! What’s on Joe Mind Special Edition

No matter what your reaction, the name SK Omega generates some immediate feedback.  Initially debuted at JoeCon in 2010, this up and coming independent toyline is marketing itself to G.I. Joe fans!  Yes, there has been a period of silence to the point where some fans aren’t even sure the line will ever be released.

Well, Molten Monkey International has broken that silence.  Chris, a representative of MMI came on the What’s on Joe Mind Podcast in their only public appearance and gives us the low down of everything SK Omega.  What stage is the line in now?  Where will it be sold?  What’s in the first assortment?

Everything you want to know, we talk about.  For folks who need a refresher on the whole SK Omega line, check out my JoeCon Report, and then hit up the Whats on Joe Mind SK Omega Special Edition episode to hear straight from the horse’s mouth.  You can also, as always, go to Podbean, listen to the embedded media player below.

And for folks who are Jonesing for a more “regular” What’s on Joe Mind episode, fear not!  This was a special edition… Episode 15 will also be hitting this week.  Two for the price of one!

Whats on Joe Mind Episode 14 now online

Well, the HasbroToyShop fiasco is behind us, SDCC has come and gone, and the guys from What’s on Joe Mind reflect on the weekend of apparent non-activity in their own unique way.  We also take some time to speak with Gary “Gyre-Viper” Head about our close knit community,  run through a great SK Omega update in preparation for next week’s interview, and have a G.I. Joe party for 2 hours.

Size doesn’t matter?  Ridiculous!  Check out the episode at Podbean.com, subscribe via iTunes, or listen via the embedded player below:

GeneralsJoes Reviews the Shout! Factory Beast Wars Complete Series

And now for something completely different…

While I’m certainly not a diehard Transformers fan, for a few years during a time when G.I. Joe was not at mainstream retail, I lived, ate, and breathed Beast Wars.  I was lucky enough to get my hands on the Rhino releases when they hit retail a few years back, but knowing the quality of Shout Factory’s work, I had to get this set in my hands, too.

The end result was a fantastic trip down memory lane and only further reinforcement of just how great the Beast Wars animated series is.  The review is posted in the Miscellaneous section, and can also be found directly below:

Upcoming Crimson HISS, Crimson Horseman, and Starscream Skystriker images online!

Leading right up to SDCC, G.I. Joe aficianado Gyre-Viper is at it again!

This time around we get an awesome gallery of the upcoming Crimson HISS Tank, slated for release in Wave 2 of the Bravo line…but more importantly along with the Crimson HISS, we get Cobra’s Crimson Horseman.  For some reason I am unreasonably in love with this figure.  We’ve been inundated with Crimson clones over the years, but this guy just kicks my ass.  Even with that Snake Eyes vest.  Good stuff.

Checkout JoeDeclassified.com for the details, and I’ve also mirrored some images below.

Along with the Crimson HISS and Horseman, he’s also posted some images of the SDCC Starscream Skystriker along with a few more pics of the regular release Skystriker.  Hot damn Starscream looks sexy.  Kinda weird that he’s the same color gray as the regular plane, but I love the Transformers twist.  The stickers, the oversized rubsign…awesome stuff.

That thread on JoeDeclassified can be found here, with some images also mirrored below.
