The fact that G.I. Joe is coming to the big screen is the biggest toy news of the year-but that's just one part of G.I. Joe's big, huge 2009! From new toys to a new comic from the series' creator, we're taking a look at what this year has in store for everyone's favorite Real American Hero. Hasbro's G.I. Joe movie figures are featured on this issue's cover! WE WANT ACTION (FEATURES) o Nowadays it's enough if a toy looks awesome and can strike a variety of poses.

Because sometimes a toy's not a toy if it just sits there.

Find out the stunning secret of Viva Muertes new boyfriend in this off-kilter title; and, in the backup features, meet kid-versions of our heroes called the Incredible Mini-Buddies, as well as the philosophy-spouting Billy Dogma.
