Following are the highlights of Hasbro's Comic-Con showcase:
G.I. JOE G.I. JOE, the original action figure, has delivered classic adventure and memorable characters to generations of kids and collectors for nearly 45 years. With the introduction of the G.I. JOE VS. COBRA saga more than 25 years ago, millions of fans met characters such as DUKE, SNAKE EYES, STORM SHADOW and COBRA COMMANDER through toys, comics and animation. Next summer, the compelling G.I. JOE VS. COBRA storyline comes to life on the big screen with the debut of a live action movie from Paramount Pictures and Hasbro on August 7, 2009. MARVEL It's been an exciting year in the Marvel Universe with Marvel Studio's blockbuster movies, Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, as well as The Spectacular Spider-Man Animated Series which is currently airing. As the master toy licensee for Marvel's incredible library of Super Hero properties, Hasbro is thrilled to display its highly anticipated toys and action figures for 2008 from its MARVEL LEGENDS, SUPER HERO SQUAD, IRON MAN, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, SPIDER-MAN and MARVEL TRANSFORMERS CROSSOVERS lines. With so many great expressions, fans will be able to ogle the very best in Super Heroes at the Hasbro booth as well as some exciting upcoming additions to the line. MY LITTLE PONY The belle of the Comic-Con ball, Hasbro's iconic MY LITTLE PONY brand recognizes a remarkable milestone in 2008 with the celebration of its 25th birthday. A special display featuring one-of-a-kind ponies designed by pop-culture influentials for the "My Little Pony Project: 25 Ponies for 25 Years" will be on hand to help celebrate a quarter century of unique MY LITTLE PONY whimsy. Comic-Con will be the first time fans will see an 18" MY LITTLE PONY figure designed by renowned comic-artist and illustrator, Junko Mizuno. Fans should be sure to stop by Hasbro for a glimpse at some of these unique 18" MY LITTLE PONY figures before they go up for auction in the fall benefiting Give Kids The World, a nonprofit organization that works to fulfill the wishes of children with life-threatening illnesses. Fans can visit My Little Pony 25th Anniversary Project! for more details about this year long celebration. STAR WARS STAR WARS fans of all ages will be able to get a first look at Hasbro's largest-ever MILLENNIUM FALCON, when it unveils the new model as well as toys from its STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS line as they make their debut in stores nationwide on Saturday, July 26. The MILLENNIUM FALCON has become one of the most recognizable "characters" in movie history and is one of Hasbro's most popular STAR WARS toys. The all-new MILLENNIUM FALCON includes electronic lights and sounds, and is approximately 30% percent larger than the original version of the toy, first launched in 1978. STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS blasts off first as a worldwide theatrical release on August 15, 2008, then continues as a weekly series on Cartoon Network beginning in the fall. TRANSFORMERS Hasbro's TRANSFORMERS franchise has become a worldwide phenomenon following last year's highly successful movie from DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures. The brand is bigger than ever before and ready to invade San Diego Comic-Con with its epic battle of AUTOBOTS VS. DECEPTICONS. This year's new Transformers: Animated television series, which airs on Cartoon Network, has provided great entertainment and an exciting line-up of action figures for kids and kids at heart. On display in the Hasbro booth will be never-before-seen additions to the TRANSFORMERS line including a sneak peak at how the brand intends to celebrate 25 years of "More Than Meets the Eye" in 2009.

That sketchbook sounds awesome, I wonder if they will do those for future cons. The closest thing previously was the work shown on the Draxhall jump site, the designs for the new sculpt joes a few years back.

Does anything Joe related happen before the panel on Thursday?
And what's the deal with the Ghostbusters setup?
