The 82nd Annual Academy Awards are tonight and no, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra will not be taking home any Oscars. On the other hand, the 30th Annual Golden Rasberry (Razzie) Award “Winners” were announced and G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra did manage to snag one. For “Worst Supporting Actress of 2009″, they picked Sienna Miller. Now, I admit Rise of Cobra was not perfect and there was stuff I was not totally excited about, but Sienna Miller was not that bad in my opinion and far from the worst actor or actress in the movie. Considering the others nominated, Sienna Miller should not have received this “award”.

Retail chains such as Marshalls, TJMaxx, and Ross have been making headlines in the Joe community as the ever elusive DVD packs, and TRU Senior Ranking Officer packs have been showing up with prices ranging from $5.00 – $15.00. Aside from 25th figures, Valor Vs. Venom and Sigma 6 are amongst the other Joe lines you may stumble across. Happy hunting Joe fans!

The infamous toyssir898 has posted some interesting images of what could possibly be some upcoming vehicles for the Pursuit of Cobra line. Featured in the images are a Joe and Cobra version of a retooled Sigma 6 Iron Hammer, and 2 version of the classic A.W.E. Striker. The Iron Hammer corresponds with the reveal that Hasbro gave us at the 2009 JoeCon. Included with the vehicles is what looks to be Duke(?) and a new version of WildWeasel(?).

Also posted are some prototypes of the A.W.E. Striker that are pretty interesting. If you notice, printed on the hood is “InGen” which was the name of John Hammond’s corporation in Jurassic Park, not to mention the “JP” logo printed on the side. The included figures in the images are also a mystery. They appear to be kit bashed version of the Toys “R” Us exclusive Fire Fly figure. As of right now, none of these images are “official” or “confirmed” by Hasbro, in addition to there being no official information on possible release dates.

Thanks to an “Anonymous” poster on 4Chan we have an image of what might be the card art for Joes to come. As most of us know, The Pursuit of Cobra line has been pushed back by Hasbro with no confirmed release date. Both the vehicle and figure lines were delayed for unknown reasons, but with the recent surfacing of a few POC figures and vehicles on eBay. And now this image on 4Chan, we are given a nice glimpse of hope that these guys might hit the shelves sooner than later, and with a refreshing new look. As for right now, this card art image is not “confirmed” by Hasbro, and should just be regarded as total speculation. It is pretty cool looking though isnt it?
