Joe Collectors’ Club unveils the first G.I. Joe Convention exclusive! http://generalsjoes.com/2012/04/19/g-i-joe-collectors-club-unveils-the-first-g-i-joe-convention-exclusive/ http://generalsjoes.com/2012/04/19/g-i-joe-collectors-club-unveils-the-first-g-i-joe-convention-exclusive/#comments Thu, 19 Apr 2012 19:09:12 +0000 Justin http://generalsjoes.com/?p=14488 And it’s a beauty as we’ve come to expect!  Check out GIJoeCon.com to see for yourself…

Oktober Guard’s resident sniper…  Daina!

It was somewhat of a no-brainer that she would be the first figure reveal with the box art and the comic page already shown, but seeing the figure in the “flesh” so to speak is always the best feeling!  And this figure does NOT disappoint!  Wow, a totally new head sculpt and new “tanker’s cowl”.  That camouflage pattern is absolutely amazing.

Beautiful figure.  Check out the mirrored image below.

The Collectors’ Club has posted a great YouTube video featuring their 2012 exclusive incentive figure Footloose, and finally gives us a good look at all sides of this great looking figure, including the backpack.

Check it out embedded below.

If you think the figure is cool, hit up GIJoeClub.com to join the club before March 16th!

EDIT – The GIJCC has also sent along a nice close up image of the Club exclusive figure, too.  Looking GREAT.

Joe Collector’s Club 2012 Incentive figure is… FOOTLOOSE! http://generalsjoes.com/2011/09/01/g-i-joe-collectors-club-2012-incentive-figure-is-footloose/ http://generalsjoes.com/2011/09/01/g-i-joe-collectors-club-2012-incentive-figure-is-footloose/#comments Thu, 01 Sep 2011 19:25:17 +0000 Justin http://generalsjoes.com/?p=11946 Hell.  Yes.

I know many fans were expecting to hear Footloose’s name with the announcement of the subscription figures, but while we’ve all eagerly waited for the official announcement, we’ve heard Footloose’s name a bit earlier than suspected.

No, he will not be one of the subscription figures, but he WILL be the 2012 Collectors Club incentive figure.  And he looks freaking GREAT.  Obviously using Claymore’s newly tooled head and helmet, with an awesome M4 Carbine, the familiar rocket launcher, and looking like he stepped out of 1985.

Fantastic.  He’ll look awesome fighting alongside Dusty in anyone’s Sunbow display.  Check out the mirrored image below, and of course hit up GIJoeClub.com for details on how to become a member by the deadline in 2012.  I’m sure there will be fans lining up to do so.

I have updated my 25th Anniversary Reviews Page (and put it on the GIJCC Reviews Page as well) or you can check out the review itself at the link below:

I know the reviews have been a bit sparse, but I am about 75% done with 6 or 7 different reviews, and they should all come pouring out within the next week or so.

Enjoy!
