June 12, 2024 by Amie Cranswick

Hasbro has officially unveiled the next three Retro Cardback releases in its G.I. Joe Classified Series line, with new 6-inch renditions of Cobra Commander, Cobra Trooper and Sgt. Stalker which hearken back to their classic 1980s G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero versions; the latest releases are available to pre-order now on Hasbro Pulse, and you can check out the promotional images and details below…

This Cobra Commander figure contains 8 character-inspired accessory pieces including backpack, 4 alternate hands, dagger, weapon accessory, and figure stand. Absolute power! Total control of the world…its people, wealth, and resources—that’s the objective of COBRA Commander. This fanatical leader rules with an iron fist. He demands total loyalty and allegiance. His main battle plan, for world control, relies on revolution and chaos. He personally led uprisings in hot spots around the globe.

G.I. Joe is a highly skilled, on-demand, special operations force of men and women from around the globe tasked with defending the world from Cobra, a ruthless criminal organization bent on total domination. Wherever there’s trouble, G.I. Joe is there. New to the G.I. Joe Classified Series line, Cobra Trooper comes with multiple points of articulation for high poseability. This Cobra Trooper figure contains 9 character-inspired accessory pieces including helmet, knife, 3 weapon accessories and figure stand. The Cobra Trooper infantry forces are the most basic, bottom-of-the barrel soldiers in the Cobra regime. They are thugs, mercenaries, pirates and assorted lowlifes recruited from all over the world. They are given the most basic level of training, the most basic of uniforms. After handing them equipment they are told to go out and destroy, sabotage and wreak havoc. Their key advantage is their pure nastiness and sheer numbers.
