Hot Toys and action star Byung-hun Lee
Hunky international action star Byung-hun Lee drops by Hot Toys Tokyo to take a look at his own Storm Shadow figure. Byung-hun has played Cobra villian Storm Shadow for the past two films and also look for him in Red 2.
G.I. Joe: Team Ninja
Hasbro’s G.I. Joe toy line has had some famous real-life characters join the team, like WWF wrestler Sgt. Slaughter and NFL Chicago Bear lineman William “The Fridge” Perry, and now, you can add Wu-Tang Clan member RZA to the list. Maybe it was just me, I found it hilarious that RZA was playing the Blind Master in G.I. Joe: Retaliation. I was cracking up and enjoyed the stiff dialogue he had in the movie. What I liked about the movie was all the ninja stuff which hearkens back to Larry Hama’s old Marvel Comics G.I. Joe universe.
