The Avengers Extended Super Bowl Trailer



The Blot’s been meaning to post this one for a while…better late than never I guess! While it’s mostly comprised of footage we’ve seen before, there are a few things that really stand out about The Avengers Extended Super Bowl Trailer. Not only does it give us our first glimpse of the Avengers’ Quinjet, it also shows us our first few seconds of Hawkeye and Black Widow in action. While all three of those scenes are nice, my favorite part is the interaction between Loki and Iron Man at the end. I absolutely love Tony’s response of “we have a Hulk” when Loki declares he has an army. It’s so pitch perfect and all kinds of awesome!

First Look: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Roadblock G.I. Joe: Retaliation Action Figure

First Look: Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Roadblock G.I. Joe: Retaliation 3.75 Inch Action Figure

I’m not 100% sure of this, but I’d be willing to bet the most anticipated figure in Hasbro’s upcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation toy line is Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Roadblock. Roadblock has always been one of the most popular characters in the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero universe, and it was travesty he wasn’t included in the first live action movie. My only question…what the hell is this figure holding in its hand? Is that a weapon or a dustpan?

Thankfully Hasbro rectified that by not only including him in Retaliation, but making him the focal point of the film. It also doesn’t hurt that they cast Johnson in the role. Maybe not a perfect casting decision, but I love the decision nevertheless. Plus, he’s going to look awesome next to everyone’s Sgt. Slaughter figures! I can’t wait to see some custom The Rocks made from these 3.75” scale figures.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation is scheduled to premier in theaters on June 29, 2012.

The Blot’s come to learn that cats are the pet of choice for much of the designer art toy community, so I know this shirt will definitely appeal to many of you.
