RESOLUTE COBRA COMMANDER

I dig this take on Cobra Commander. Don't get me wrong - nothing beats his original costume, or his Hooded version. But this is cool nonetheless.

Dunno anything about this "Resolute" line of GIJoe figures... Normally I'd look it up for everyone, but I'm lazy today.

UPDATE: Gah, I can't sit by and deny you all what you expect from JimSmash! So... "GIJOE RESOLUTE" is a new animated series set to debut early this year.

From the GIJoe Wiki (whoa, there's a GIJoe wiki!):

The Resolute cartoon will be composed of ten 5-minute webisodes to be capped off by a 10-minute finale. The webisodes are going to be streamed from Hasbro's G.I. Joe website. Together, the webisodes will comprise a one-hour movie that may be shown on television later on or released to DVD. The cartoon will have a more serious tone comparable to how one may remember the G.I. Joe comics was from Marvel Comics.

The story is written by noted comic book author Warren Ellis, produced by Sam Register and directed by Joaquim De Santos. Character designs are by comic book artist Dave Johnson. Their approach to the project is that of a PG-13 cartoon.

Viewers may expect highly-detailed animation, a more realistic approach to the story, no lasers, real bullets and open fates to the characters (i.e., any one of the majors may die). Several classic characters and vehicles will be updated. The success of the webisodes may transfer to other similarly-themed Hasbro properties but nothing is clarified at this time.

So there ya go & now we know.... and knowing is blah blah blah!

IN ADDITION!!!
This isn't the first time this "version" has made an appearance... there were a couple similar ones a few years back, offered in 2-packs:
