by Gary Catig
Hasbro recently announced some of their San Diego Comic-Con exclusives for a number of their brands, including Marvel and G.I. Joe. However, not everyone is fortunate enough to attend the big pop culture event. For those unable to go, the company is also partnering with stores to sell their own exclusive products that are hopefully more accessible.
For Target’s Summer Geek Out, Hasbro has new launches from G.I. Joe, Transformers, Star Wars, and Marvel. All of their products are up for pre-order at Target’s website.
The G.I. Joe Classified Series #212 Ninja Force Scarlett and T’Jbang retails for $59.99 and will be available on July 19th.
