For new folks, you may not be aware of who Josh Medors is, or how he connects with the G.I. Joe realm. During Devils’ Due’s America’s Elite run, Josh was the primary artist on the book and became a staple in the Joe comic realm. We were saddened to learn (and especially saddened to learn so recently, when it’s been a story for a long time now) that Josh has been inflicted with a particularly nasty case of terminal cancer, and requires alternative treatment for the disease.
The comic world is looking to do whatever they can do to help, so a benefit auction is going right now for artwork from many of the industry’s best, and all proceeds go to the fantastic cause of treatment for Josh. Please take a few minutes to read the details of this benefit auction and do whatever you can to assist. Check the following links for all pertinent information:
Thanks as always to Jeff Bohn for keeping us in the loop on this.

Along with the more well-known G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club and Canadian JoeCon, many smaller regional groups are getting into the “exclusive” figure game to draw folks to their meet ups, or just to have fun with. Last year, a crew of JoeCustoms faithful in the Pennsylvania area held a JoeCustoms get together and featured two exclusive figures, Auger, and Methane. Well, just in time for the next Pennsylvania JoeCustoms Picnic (May 30th in Pottsville, PA) I’ve posted a review for these two figures in my Exclusives section.
Check out the review here, and for all details about the upcoming JoeCustoms Picnic, check out this thread on JoeCustoms.com!

Updated pictures have started floating around the web of the upcoming Target Exclusive mini-vehicles with figures. The vehicles are, for the most part, repaints of Spy Troops and Valor Vs. Venom items with some interestingly tweaked Anniversary style figures worked in. Thanks to the Terror Drome for the images, which are mirrored below.
