One of the masterminds behind G.I. Joe: Renegades and Transformers: Prime has signed a development deal with Hasbro Studios in a move that will keep him closely tied to Hasbro properties, and is hopefully a sign that they want to continue building upon the excellent foundations of Renegades and Prime both.
The information comes from The Wrap. Kline has been working in animation for a long time, working on some great series including Men in Black, Jackie Chan Adventures, and Starship Troopers: Roughnecks.

The Canadian JoeCon folks have produced some awesome product over the years, and the recent Hailstorm was one of my favorites. I love the Firebat, and getting that great vehicle into the JoeCanuck universe was awesome.
A lot of folks also have a huge crush on the HATE tank as well, which is a version of the HISS done in Chrome reflective armor. Well, the HATE now has a partner! Selling exclusively on eBay, the JoeCanuck guys have produced a special limited edition “Chrome Hailstorm” vehicle!
This thing is sure to be a hot seller, so get your bids in early and often. Check it out right here.

I LOVE it. Absolutely love it. Stalker is one of my all time favorite G.I. Joe characters, and it seemed like a while since he really received any valid face time. G.I. Joe: Resolute brought him back to the forefront, and seeing a quick cameo in G.I. Joe: Renegades was a treat as well.
Sideshow Collectibles is now also bringing Stalker into the G.I. Joe roster, and is producing him much more quickly than one would have thought. Sideshow has posted a quick Stalker teaser here, and also promises to have the pre-order launched in time for the January 27th Newsletter. We’ll also get a nice product preview on January 25th during the production blog. I may just have to pre-order this one… see the image below.
