Director Jon M Chu is telling all the fans to Tweet @ParamountPics to see the G. I. Joe: Retaliation 1st Trailer early.
This new trend is really working, as the fans of Need For Speed franchise recently managed to get their hands on the Need For Speed: Run Michael Bay Trailer, days before it was originally suppose to release by letting their voices heard. It’s time for us to step-up and demand. Image courtesy Bernard J. Kleina. |

Past 24 hours has been exciting for all the G. I. Joe: Retaliation fans. We are still getting a lot of information from our members and celebrities alike.
First up, this image from ET courtesy of HISSTANK member Shogi. The image is of movie Snake Eyes from an upcoming Sneak Peek of the 1st trailer by Entertainment Tonight. They did the same for Transformers: Dark of the Moon as well. So basically, we just saw a Sneak Peek of the Sneak Peek of the 1st Trailer which will debut next Tuesday. And yes, the Image bears similarities to the IDW Costume we saw not too long ago. ![]() Next up it’s Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Earlier Jon Chu made an Announcement that The Rock will be making an Announcement. Jon M Chu first tweeted… “To all the G.I. JOE RETALIATION FANS out there, you guys rock!! Literally…Check out@TheRock twitter page for an announcement soon…” And soon Roadblock updated his Twitter page with… “In 3 days. World premiere. The movie trailer that puts Boots To Asses. #GIJoeRetaliation.pic.twitter.com/vM45WTCk“ This firmly confirms the release of the trailer. Finally, a massive “Thank You!” should go out to all the G. I. Joe fans for bombarding Paramount Pictures Twitter Page with requests to reveal the G. I. Joe 2 trailer soon. Jon M Chu was absolutely awesome to suggest it in the first place. He has been a wonderful director who actually cared for the franchise which he himself is a fan of. Hopefully, we will see an enjoyable movie faithful to the original concepts of the G. I. Joe Franchise which we all know and love. YO JOE, everybody and COBRAAA!!! |

The hype is building up! G. I. Joe: Retaliation is promising to deliver the real goods to the fans. With an All-Star Cast and a talented Crew, the second movie is sure to please everyone.
One such awesome artist is Rhett Reese, who contributed with the Screen Play for the upcoming movie. He is also a member here at HISSTANK. Mr. Reese moments ago talked to the fans regarding the upcoming Teaser Trailer. "Yes, our trailer is arriving very soon! I can't divulge content. All I can say is that it's a ton of fun and very representative of the movie at large. I'll be back to check everyone's reactions come Monday night. Really interested to hear what you die-hards say... what you pick up on, what you don't, etc. The good news: there will be so, so much more cool stuff in the movie than what went into the trailer. Trailers are often guilty of showing every cool moment, so that when you attend the actual movie, it's anticlimactic, because you've already seen so much. That is emphatically *not* the case here. Yes, you'll see a lot of cool stuff. But it's just the tip of our proverbial iceberg. Enjoy, everyone, I'll drop by Monday to read your honest opinions, R" |

The highly anticipated Zombie Viper has infiltrated retail! With wave 3 just starting to trickle into retail stores, the Zombie Viper arrived sooner than thought. HISS Tank boards member blayze5150 spotted Zombie Viper at a Walmart in Gastonia, North Carolina.
Zombie Viper was revealed at Toy Fair 2011 and is one of the most unique figures from this year. Photographic evidence of the sighting after the jump! |

Hope you guys enjoyed the Sneak Peek of G. I. Joe: Retaliation Teaser Trailer.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has updated his Twitter page mentioning that it’s only 2 Days To Go for the “Big Reveal”. "In 2 days. World premiere movie trailer. GI JOE: RETALIATION. #Intensity" ![]() The image reveals Roadblock, Lady Jaye and Flint. From the looks of it, the three are at the same place seen on the Sneak Peek. This may have been the aftermath of the battle we saw. Pretty sure The Rock will reveal another image tomorrow, mentioning “1 Day To Go”. P.S: Some Screencaps from the Sneak Peek are posted after the jump. Special thanks should go out to all the members who contributed. |

Crave Online has posted a description of the G. I. Joe: Retaliation trailer we are about to see within the next 24 hours. On a happy note, the description is not spoiling anything (well, just a teensy bit).
"...G.I. Joe speaks that language. You’ve got the trappings of army guys and governments and tactics and weapons. The plot of this sequel leads to a moment that’s so ‘80s cartoon Cobra Command, you won’t believe they had the balls to do it in a live action movie. It’s not the spectacle per se, but what it represents is the right direction for a crazy soldier action movie.... ...There’s a whole lot more of The Rock in this trailer than Channing Tatum, and a lot of new characters. The greatest new character makes his appearance at the end of the trailer in a classic badass style befitting his legendary persona..." Read the entire article at Crave Online. |

It’s Rumor Time. But in fact this rumor surfaced a long time ago when we first heard of a character called Mouse is in G. I. Joe: Retaliation. Pretty soon, Joe Mazzello was chosen for the job.
Entertainment Site; Comic Book Movie states that they have received an e-mail from someone claiming to be working for the upcoming movie letting them know of that Sgt. Slaughter is in Retaliation. It is said that it was Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who plays Roadblock suggested to Director Jon M Chu to include the character as a Cameo. If true, this will come as no surprise since Robert Remus, who is the real life WWE personality which the fictional character based on, is in the same profession as The Rock. The website also reveals the possible [rumored] scene the appearance happens. Read more after the jump. |

Hope you all enjoyed the Teaser Trailer of G. I. Joe: Retaliation. Now it’s time for a brief analysis. However, this is not a frame-by-frame breakdown, but rather a look back at the news posts explaining the stuff we saw on the trailer.
Mind you, some of you may find this as spoilers and some facts are still in the rumor-mill mode. Therefore, we are issuing a Spoiler Warning and a Rumor Alert just to be on the safe side. Read more after the jump. |

The Official Website for G. I. Joe: Retaliation is now live.
The site is also letting the International Fans when they’ll get to watch the upcoming movie by Jon M Chu. Sad news for some fans, since the movie will release as far as August in certain countries including Australia. On a happier note, some countries will see the movie more than a week ahead of the US Release (29th June, 2012). However, there is nothing much on the site at the moment. It will be updated as time goes by. The complete list of Worldwide Release Dates are mirrored after the jump. |

We've got a preview and review of Snake Eyes #8, available today at your local comic book shops!
Snake Eyes #8 (w)Chuck Dixon (a)Casey Maloney (c)Robert Atkins Pinned down by Cobra forces and desperate to find a cure to a deadly virus, Snake Eyes and Duke must find a way to stave off the massive attack forces long enough to get to the Ray-Pharm labs. Duke, close to madness and death, resorts to dangerous measures in order to survive. Can Snake Eyes help save his fellow Joe in time? Or will the Cobra Civil War claim another casualty in the heat of battle? Read on to preview this issue and check out the review! Snake Eyes #8 Review Writer: Chuck Dixon Artist: Casey Maloney Inker: Juan Castro and Chris Dreier Colorist: Simon Gough and Romulo Fajardo Jr. Letterer: Neil Uyetake Editors: Carlos Guzman and John Barber Cover A: John Haynes Cover B: Art by Robert Atkins, colors by Simon Gough Cover RI: Art by Tom Feister Review Snake Eyes #8 features a regular cover(cover A) with a photo of Snake Eyes VS Storm Shadow(using the 25th Anniversary figures). This is misleading because Storm Shadow is nowhere to be seen in this issue. Duke has been infected with the Madness Bug, so he and Snake Eyes invade Albania, taking Rodrigo Vargas(also infected), with them. Kwinn is brought along to help. Their goal? Bring Vargas to Ray-Pharm so he can share the cure with Duke. There to welcome them are Vipers, and Toxo Vipers oh my! The way Dixon sets this up, Duke, Kwinn and Snake Eyes, taking on Vipers, should be exciting. However, it falls short due to the artwork. It looks too simplistic. I'm not sure if Maloney had a tight deadline to face, or if this it's just the style, but the simplicity is noticeable. The clarity is there but it just makes the simplicity more apparent. The art reminds me of pack-in mini-comics for toys. While at Ray-Pharm, Duke hijacks a Cobra Imp. Pretty cool to see that somewhat obscure vehicle in action. It was also cool seeing the Toxo Vipers(both versions!) used. Seems like the 2nd version was used as a Toxo Viper Commander, which was a cool distinction. Someone does bite the dust...is it Duke? Well, you'll have to read the issue to find that out for yourself. Overall the premise of this issue is cool, but fell short in execution. Should you buy it? I suggest flipping through it at the store first. There's been stronger issues in this series, especially in the beginning. |

Contradicting earlier reports of G. I. Joe: Retaliation 1st Trailer to make its Big Screen Debut with Steven Spielberg’s TinTin, Jon M Chu announced via his Twitter Account that it will actually make its appearance with Paramount’s upcoming Mission Impossible 4 (Releasing today, actually).
"MUST SEE!! The #GIJoeRetaliation TEASER TRAILER on the BIG SCREEN as it plays in front of MI:4 and Dark Knight Preview! #ROCKEVENBIGGER" It seems as though G. I. Joe will receive quite a lot of attention since both Nolan’s Dark Knight (Batman) series and the Mission Impossible series are two of the biggest names in Hollywood. If you haven’t already checked out the Teaser Trailer of G. I. Joe: Retaliation, it is posted right here at HISSTANK. |

Reports are coming in from HISSTANK members who went to watch Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (MI4), regarding the G. I. Joe: Retaliation 1st Trailer.
It is said that the trailer shown at the theaters is slightly different from the one we saw Online few days ago. Several additional scenes were said included, most of them being clips of Storm Shadow. Those who reported said his costume now features a hood; something which is kind of iconic for the said character. Early rumors mentioned Storm Shadow may wear a different costume than what he wore for Rise Of Cobra. |

Official Facebook Page of Howe and Howe Technologies, Inc. announced today that one of their designed armored vehicles is featured in the upcoming G. I. Joe: Retaliation.
The vehicle in question is the The Ripsaw EV-1 Combat Vehicle and it is the world’s fastest dual tracked vehicle. Called by the creators as “Rippy”, twin brothers Michael "Mike" and Geoffrey "Geoff" Howe told their Facebook fans… "Rippy as the "Joe Tank" in G.I. Joe2 out June 2012." “Joe Tank” may very well be a fake name to conceal what the vehicle is called in the movie. The same practice was used recently for the Transformers Live Action Movie Vehicles. If we take examples, Mirage/Dino’s Ferrari 458 Italia was called "Rush" and Sentinel Prime’s Rosenbauer Panther Firetruck was called "Ultra Magnus" during the Principle Photography of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, to avoid plot leaks. Many G. I. Joe fans call it the H. I. S. S. Tank since the Ripsaw looks a lot like the fictional tank. More details of the Ripsaw EV-1 Combat Vehicle is available on their website or you can read the mirrored info, after the jump. |

As with Michael Bay’s Transformers Movies, G. I. Joe too receive IDW Comic Book treatment with Prequel, Adaptation and Sequel Comic Books. On our last Comic Book Solicitation news posts for the months of February and March, we told our members that we will see Prequel Comic Books for G. I. Joe: Retaliation.
Amazon has posted a new listing for the Paperback Edition of the Prequel. Sorry folks, no preview. I guess they learned a lesson with the whole Dark of the Moon fiasco, which ended with leaking the entire plot of the movie. However, we do get to see what the cover looks like and some tidbits. Find out the details, after the jump. |

We are sure most of you remember the news we posted regarding famous singer and songwriter Nikki Leonti’s involvement with G. I. Joe 2. On December 10th she has updated her Twitter Account with… “Thank u Paramount music For putting me in the Gi-joe 2 movie and all the @nikkiandrich support! Love u!” For those who don’t know about Paramount Music, it is owned by Paramount Pictures and handles Movie Songs. |

While iPads, video games, and all things electronic seem to be all the rage with kids, toys based on iconic/retro brands are said to be making a come back. According to The Street, GI Joe is one of Hasbro's best sellers during this holiday season:
Toy makers and distributors have long been aware of what Hasbro(HAS_) refers to as the power of a "portfolio of iconic bands." Among that company's best-sellers were some very old and recognizable names: Nerf, G.I. Joe, Strawberry Shortcake and My Little Pony. The company has also benefited from the ever-popular line of Star Wars-related action figures and yet another wave of movie-fueled demand for Transformers. |

Robert Atkins has posted his penciled and inked turn-around drawings of the Baroness in her original costume on his blog. These turn arounds were also the 1st drawings that Atkins made of The Baroness in her original costume:
Over the course of the last few years, I have drawn quite a few Baroness commissions and sketches. For whatever reason though I had never really drawn her in her original costume, until I got to do this turnaround. Now, I'm not saying this is the definitive Baroness. I don't know that I'm capable of that. But there is something to be said about her original costume. It still holds up today nearly 30 years later, and you certainly can't say that about every GI Joe design. Check out the turnaround after the jump! |

The GI Joe Resolute 7 Packs and Toys R Us exclusive Pursuit Of Cobra Quick Kick & Pursuit Of Cobra Spirit have turned up at ROSS. Some of you(including this editor), experienced difficulty in finding the POC exclusives while they were at TRU, so this is another shot(perhaps an easier one too), at nabbing them. HISS Tank boards member Duffman spotted the Resolute sets not too long ago, with GeneralxRon finding the POC exclusives not too long afterwards. Prices are as follows:

Sgt Slaughter tends to be a popular topic of discussion for GI Joe fans. From fans trying their best to hunt down the SDCC 2010 exclusive versions of the good ol' Sarge, to rumors that Sgt Slaughter may have a cameo in GI Joe Retaliation, Slaughter is quite the fan-favorite. Whether taking on other wrestlers in the WWF, to taking on Cobra in the GI Joe A Real American Hero cartoon, Slaughter was a hero to many of us during childhood.
So how cool would it be to run into your childhood hero, who like you, just happens to be looking for toys? This is exactly what happened, as HISS Tank boards member MrClean ran into none other than Sgt Slaughter at Toys R Us! YO JOE! |

Site sponsor Kokomo Toys has received word from Hasbro that the GI Joe Retaliation toys will be released on May 28th 2012!
We received word from Hasbro this morning that we can place our order for the new movie toy line figures as early as today. We hope to have stuff listed for Pre-Order soon on our website. The first thing we noticed was the wholesale prices have been increased. Ouch. The catalog shows Bravo, Delta and Alpha vehicles along with figure cases of 12 per case. There is listings for some "10 "Inch Battle-Kata Battlers" and "Dress/Playsets" and 2 Pack Ninja Showdown sets. Woo Hoo! There is no case assortment break downs as of yet, but we will update our site as soon as we get more information. Is the Delta size-class for vehicles the same as the Sky Striker or bigger? Stay tuned for more info! |
