Having teased them with digital renders in the run up to this past weekend’s New York Comic Con, Hasbro has officially launched pre-orders for the next wave of G.I. Joe Classified Series action figures, which includes Lifeline, Hit & Run and Big Lob, along with Cobra’s Night Viper and Mole Rat (Stage 2); check out the official promotional images and details below…
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES #186, EDWIN “LIFELINE” STEEN
New to the G.I. JOE Classified Series line, Edwin “Lifeline” Steen comes ready for adventure, with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Edwin “Lifeline” Steen figure contains 11 character-inspired accessory pieces including helmet, backpack, medic bag, breathing mask, blood bag, flashlight, knife, 2 goggles, weapon accessory, and his signature green glasses. The troops have to know that if something really heavy comes down on them and they’re in no condition to walk out of the mess, somebody is going to have the heart to wade in and extricate them. That somebody is Lifeline.
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES #187, NIGHT-VIPER
New to the G.I. JOE Classified Series line, Night-Viper comes ready for adventure, with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Night-Viper figure contains 7 character-inspired accessory pieces including alternate helmeted head with night-vision visor, backpack, 2 knives, and weapon accessories. The powerful infrared detector of a Night-Viper’s helmet can spot the body heat of a squirrel at 100 yards. Their combat suit and weapons are mostly made of synthetic composites that reduce their own infrared signature and defy most ground radars. Direct intense light can overload sensors. The problem is you have to find him first.
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES #188, BRENT “HIT & RUN” SCOTT
New to the G.I. JOE Classified Series line, Brent “Hit & Run” Scott comes ready for adventure, with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Brent “Hit & Run” Scott figure contains 10 character-inspired accessory pieces including grappling hook, grappling hook handle, machete, duffel bag, knife, helmet goggles, and weapon accessories. Orphaned at a young age, Hit & Run grew up “practicing” for his future career by scaling the sheer walls of the county institution where he grew up. As soon as he was of age he ran direct from the custody of the county to a recruiting office.
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES #189, BRADLEY “BIG LOB” SANDERS
New to the G.I. JOE Classified Series line, Bradley “Big Lob” Sanders comes ready for adventure, with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Bradley “Big Lob” Sanders figure contains 8 character-inspired accessory pieces including alternate hand, hand with basketball, knife, grenade, “alley-oop” grenade launcher, “fadeaway” rifle, and weapon accessories. A top athlete who opted to enlist in the Reserves rather than pro sports, Big Lob’s precise distance grenade throws and exceptional skill with the “alley-oop” multi-shot grenade launcher and “fadeaway” quickly caught the attention of the G.I. JOE team, who recruited him under their Rawhides program. When Big Lob makes his move, he always shoots to score the big win.
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED SERIES #190, MOLE RAT (STAGE 2)
New to the G.I. JOE Classified Series line, Mole Rat (Stage 2) comes ready for adventure, with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Mole Rat figure contains 8 character-inspired accessory pieces including backpack, scanner, Dark Energon cannister, 2 alternate mutated heads, and a drill trigger with drill bit, and weapon accessory. The Mole Rats, Cobra’s scientific cannon fodder, continue to extract deposits of volatile Dark Energon as an energy source to power Cobra’s war machine. Extended exposure has sparked certain troopers to become mindless husks bent on destroying anything in their path and Stage 2 of the infection has only accelerated their degeneration.
