It’s a Good Day to Be Either a Marauder or a Dreadnok
 |
?Hasbro revealed two new Big Bad Toy Store-exclusive G.I. Joe 30th Anniversary 7-packs at NYCC, and I think more than a few of you will be interested. One is of Sgt. Slaughter’s Marauders, which includes: Barbecue, Falcon, Low Light, Mercer, Red Dog, Spirit and Taurus. The other is of the lesser-known Dreadnok, including: Burn Out, Gnawgahyde, Road Pig, Thrasher, Zandar, Zanya, and Zanzibar. No one seems to have taken any shots of the groups (I included Road Pig here because of his awesome name and design), but you can had over to The Terrordrome to see every individual figure, and then ToyNewsI has more shots.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
