Nice.

Yhea as a whole the set is a bit meh. Maybe if I cared about the Python Patrol concept i'd be more into it. That said the "Steel" Cobra de Aco is nifty, and I may get a Claymore, only because the first thought I had when I saw it was Thomas Magnum, and I can find a place for Magnum freakin P.I. in my GICobra force.

I like the steel cobra and want the non repaint of the REAL Dial-Tone. I could've sword we got a PP figure in the anniversary line and I'm PISSED were getting a decent Tele-Viper here and not mainstream… yet. Curious to see what vehicles they're getting.

I have a bad feeling we may see an AWE striker for the joes, just to use the molds seeing they cancelled the JP ones. Beyond that It wouldn't surprise me to see a PP/jungle themed trouble bubble.

They canceled the JP sets? I've been looking for them. Is the entire JP line done or just those vehicles? I'll miss the figures more.

Not sure, but the Drome had a story the other day showing them in mock-up packaging and had them tagged as cancelled.

As far as I could tell they only meant the vehicles and not the line as a whole. A shame as I would have grabbed those.

ADDITIONAL: (seeing i went back and checked the article to see if I missed anything.)

HASBRO - The Jurassic Park figures that were leaked online, were in fact, prototypes for a line that never made it to store.

I must have this shirt.

Damn, no Canadian tour spots

Huh, didn't realize there are two Torches in the band

let alone that if they did tour as the band it would be "Cold Slither" not 'noks.

Where is that shirt being sold? On a previous topic I think I might hold off on getting the ROC Dragonhawk since I really only have room for one helicopter and who knows what's coming for POC.

I linked it in my previous post. 80stees.com is selling them. I've never bought from the site so I can't vouch for them.

I missed the link. I think I've ordered from them before and was happy with the shirts.

Apparently a canceled vehicle called the Sand Serpent is being at Ross.

Could be worth while for completists!

Ah yes the desert repaint of the Night Raven. Ya know with this and the Target packs showing up at discount stores it leads me to believe that they were shipped from Hasbro and retailers like Target decided not to stock them.

I'm glad you said that, Editor. I was considering looking for that shirt until you pointed that out.

Boooooo!

Well I went for it. It makes sense to me that it says Dreadnocks since the average fan remembers that name over Cold Slither.

Yeah, you're right on that one. The "tour date" back is f'n cool, though!

I'm probably buying it too. I suppose the only time we'll get crap for its inaccuracy is JoeCon

Now if that shirt was done with Cold Slither on the front and the Shattered Glass lyrics for their self-titled song on the back, i'd likely throw down for one.

That I would really like to learn what role SG Cobra takes in Shattered-verse seeing we know that the corrupt SGJoes run the US Government.

Forgot to scan this and post it. My friend Pat Loika drew this for me as a Christmas card.

nice.

Huh, I didn't realize they incorporated GI Joe in the Shattered Glass storyline.

I'm so out of the loop on Botcon exclusive stories.

In Shattered-verse, Colton is President, Hawk is VPOTUS, and Duke is Secretary of Defense.

Cold Slither is a legit band touring Europe with the Misfits.

We're Cold Slither
Hope you're joining us soon
A band of vipers
playing our tune

Break the iron fist
with a reptile hiss
Freedom Now!

"Just wait and see"
Shouts the powers that be
I reply: "Don't Tread on Me!"

Fascism's a joke
Anarchy's for fools
Just give us a vote
And we'll choose who rules

We're Cold Slither
Heavy metal machine
Restore the Constitution
That is our dream!

When the venom stings
A new order brings
Freedom back!

Is this in the Transformers Universe comic that is published for BotCon?

The role of the joe members and the existence of cold slither was brought in during "Eye in the Sky" and the details for the song (as well as their album "Thunder Hammer") was in "Blitzwing Bop"

Both were short stories made available thru the club website.
