Black Sheep Toy Store unleashes more upcoming loose figures

Man…these are some awesome looking figures.  I know there’s been a lot of movie bashing going around, but every one of those above toys really kicks ass, in my opinion.  I’m still trying to figure out how I’m going to get my hands on a half dozen of those 3-piece suit Destro figures.  I could find lots of uses for that one.

Thanks to HissCommander of The Terror Drome for the intel.

So far Marlon Wayans has been surprisingly silent about his role as “Ripcord” in the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of COBRA motion picture, being released August 7th of this year.  Well, he breaks his silence with MTV.com and lets the fans know what they should expect from the film.

“The movie is serious, action and some comedy – but not all comedy,” insisted the star, who will bring an extremely different look to the High Altitude Low Opening jumper in the August 7th flick. “You pull off the reigns; I did what was appropriate for the role and for the character.”

“It wasn’t about ‘Hey, let it be the me comedy show’,” promised Wayans. “It is G.I. Joe. It’s supposed to be badass action. So you commit to it – and I found the fun in being a badass, for once in my life.”
