I have to cut it short due to some commission work and getting ready for the big throwdown in July, but I&#8217;ve still got a little something to post.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"promo\/gfxgen_2025-06-20_breakerandzap.png\"><\/center><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"customsprites.php?g=gijoe\">Custom Sprites &#8211; G.I.JOE<\/a>: While working on something else, I started working on a G.I.JOE (and possible all-around soldier) template template for poses and fixing their height scale. The first results from that are the new Zap and Breaker sprites, and I adjusted Breaker&#8217;s 2022 pose to match the height of his new one. Both characters have alt versions with different facial hair, and I also gave <a href=\"customsprites.php?g=gijoe&#038;s=breaker-fgtsze\">Breaker a mini-gallery<\/a> because he also has versions with him blowing his bubble gum. Then I noticed that I forgot to add Short-Fuze&#8217;s sprite to the custom sprite gallery in 2022 (but he did show up in the &#8220;G.I.JOE team &#8211; other&#8221; slot in the GFX Generators), so I fixed that. Coincidentally, Breaker and Short-Fuze were the first two G.I.JOE figures my late grandma got for me when I was a kid, and this is the second update where I&#8217;ve grouped them together. I&#8217;ll be adding more sprites and fixes based on that template in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>GFX Generators: Besides adding the new custom sprites, G.I.JOE &#8220;Original 13&#8221; characters who were in the &#8220;G.I.JOE team &#8211; other&#8221; slot are now in &#8220;G.I.JOE team &#8211; rest of Original 13&#8221; slot.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float:left; padding: 5px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"promo\/preview_2025-06-20_greenvehicleheadlightandwheel_144x144p.gif\" height=\"90\" width=\"90\"><\/div>\n<p>So what was that &#8220;working on something else&#8221; I mentioned earlier? I&#8217;m about 90% done with it but most of the hardest work is done. Definitely enough to show you a teaser from a Moho\/Anime Studio testing some of the moving parts. If you&#8217;re a G.I JOE fan, there&#8217;s a really good chance that you recognize what&#8217;s in that GIF. I&#8217;ll be making and posting more pixel art based on that series in July and even more in the near future, along with more added to the ToyBoss section. Right now I&#8217;m waiting for my retro card classified Rock &#8216;N Roll pre-order to hit BigBadToyStore, and looking forward to that Classified versions of V.4 Snake-Eyes (seen in the Konami arcade game) and the Mobile Missile System with V.1 Hawk. I&#8217;d be getting more, but the Marvel Legends Gamerverse releases like Gigantos (Shuma-Gorath) are making it tough to pick-and-choose. The main things I&#8217;m kicking myself for missing recently are the ReAction O-ring versions of Cobra Commander and Cover-Girl. How are your figure collections going these days?<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div style=\"float:left; padding: 5px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"promo\/preview_2025-06-20_25thanniversarypixelart01_square-35p-x16.png\" height=\"105\" width=\"105\" class=\"crisp\"><\/div>\n<p>I&#8217;ve mostly been busy working on new things for the 25th anniversary of the ScrollBoss site, which hits July 19th. If you can figure out these teasers you&#8217;ll see one sprite finishing a playable beat &#8217;em up crew, two overdue heroes from a classic series, and a new pose for a superhero I&#8217;ve already sprited. My plan is represent a bit of everything with the new sprites (and more) to make sure there&#8217;s a little something for everybody. This anniversary isn&#8217;t just about this site, it&#8217;s about all of you who have made all this work worth doing. It&#8217;s always been fun to make things, even if people don&#8217;t see it, but the fact that other people enjoy it or things like the Marvel vs. Capcom-style mini-logos are useful for fan projects helps keep me going even more. Thanks for stopping in and I hope I see you again in mid-July!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yo Joe June + 25th Anniversary heads-up<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,16,13],"tags":[54],"class_list":["post-3624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-updates-sb","category-sitenewsmain","category-updates","tag-g-i-joe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3624"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3624\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3642,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3624\/revisions\/3642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scrollboss.illmosis.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
