G.I. Joe 2008/2009 News & Rumors List

G.I. Joe 2008/2009 News & Rumors For New Toys And Vehicles

This is a thread where we will keep track and house all of the information collected on the 2008 lines so far. I’ll keep the main list updated as new things come along, so this will be a living, evolving list - check back often to see updates. Any tips that you might have will be appreciated. If I missed anything just post it below, and I’ll get it worked into the main list. Make sure to provide source links any time you add a new piece of information. Or if you want to keep it anonymous - send me a PM and we'll work out the details from there.

Note - The usual caveats apply - nothing is official until Hasbro tells us it's official!
