This will be a Hasbro Pulse exclusive! The artwork on the front of the package is incredible and there is also a little Easter Egg in the background as well! Be sure to check out our entire coverage of all the GI Joe announcements from this year’s 1027 event at GI Joe Classified Series 1027 FanStream 2023 Reveals & Preorder.


Unboxing
The front artwork is incredible and features the Vamp with Clutch standing next to it, and as you can see there is a tease of the Cobra Ferret in the background!
Here we can see the back of the box and the array of accessories that Clutch and the Vamp come packed with! You can see that he comes with 2 different helmets so you can army build him if you want to! There is a fire extinguisher, axe, two water canisters, a shovel, a tarp, grip handles for the crossbars, a rifle, pistol and wrench!


The side of the box features beautiful artwork of Clutch, helmetless with a wrench in his hands, ready to work on his Vamp! He will be #112. Clutch comes with rockabilly tattoos on his arms and his signature wrench!




The Vamp comes packed inside with a ton of accessories. The tires are really cool and look like heavy duty offroad tires! There is a suspension in the jeep so it will bounce when you press on it.








There is a tow whence on the front bumper, and a tow hitch on the back! Lenny joked about ground to air missiles attach to the back tow hitch,….so maybe something to come? Also there are headlights that attach to the front bumper and top bar.



The front windshield folds down so that you can have one of your Joes firing their rifle from the front seat! And the rear guns attach to the back of the jeep.



The details for this Vamp are incredible! It looks so amazing and you can stow all the accessories right on the vehicle!





Clutch comes with 2 helmets, his class one and a more Star Brigade one. The helmets are swappable and of course removeable. The Star Brigade helmet has gunner shark teeth on the side which is really cool and can fit most of your other Joes!



Preorder
Again, don’t miss out as this goes on preorder TODAY at 2pm PST/ 5pm EST for Hasbro Pulse premium members and at 3pm PST/ 6pm EST for the general public. With this preorder image, we get to see a stunning rendering of what the product within will look like, and if it’s anything like this rendering, collector’s are in store for one incredible Classified scale vehicle! The details are incredible and I love all the extra light bars on the front grill and the top of the windshield.

Current Pipeline Name Only Reveals
Here are the name only pipeline reveals we could see digital renders for!
Alpine
A new name only reveal dropped at the GI Joe Classified Series panel during New York Comc Con 2023, and that was Alpine! Alpine has always been one of the classic Joes and the Roel nailed the render for his head sculpt! We don’t see many Joes with baseball caps and I am imagining that this hat could be removable. He is also rendered with a realistic rope across his chest, very similar to the Shipwreck was made in the Classified Series. The coloring on his is a little darker than the vintage figure but it’s a great look nonetheless! Below is an incredible custom render done by a very talented individual Roel Robles! If you want to check out more of his work, take a look at our Future GI Joe Classified Series Figure Concepts article.

We also have an incredible custom by YoJoeARAH of Alpine to give us a better idea of what the actual figure will look like.
Alpine has always been one of the classic Joes and the fun factor was all of climbing gear he came with. Alpine came with a tan mountain pack, a black GR8-88 grappling launch line, a black Barretta SMG-12 submachine gun, a black climbing axe, and two black grappling hooks connected by black string.
His bio reads’ “From the middle of the flat dusty Snake River Plain where Alpine was born he could see the mountains on the horizon in almost every direction like a physical barrier between him and the world he wanted. He took up mountain climbing during college and continued as a recreational climber during his brief tenure as an accountant for a large publishing firm. The G.I. Joe team gave Alpine the most hazardous of all conditions: With COBRA shooting at him! Graduated Ranger School, Fort Benning. Qualified Expert: M-16, M-14, M-60, M1911A1. The quote on his file card reads, “Every time Alpine scales a sheer cliff face piton by piton, overcoming granite and gravity with muscle and persistance, he is symbolically climbing out of the quagmire of his past. That’s why we send him up first on vertical assaults. He doesn’t take to being knocked down too easily.”

Night Creeper
The original purple and maroon suit with gray and maroon camouflage pants. This suit includes a silver visor and breast plates. Night Creeper came with a black crossbow, a black kris sword, a black barbed sword, and a maroon backpack.


Here is a concept by the insanely talented @YoJoeARAH as this could very well be what we see for a Classified Series Night Creeper.
Gnawgahyde & Boar
Gnawgahyde was released in 1989 and this was right before the GI Joe line went completely off the rails in the 1990’s. It’s great to see another Dreadnok added to the line! Gnawgahyde came with a black rifle, a black bipod, a silver machete, a silver knife, a black bow, a black quiver, a tan hat, and a brown boar.


Here is a concept by, you guessed it, @yoJoeARHA and we will likely see a packout like the Croc Master, who also came with a pet.
Retro Beachhead
We got a version of Beach Head in the Cobra Island Target exclusive era, and that was pretty much like the vintage figure. Continuing their retro cardback series, they have another Beachhead version in the works! Thanks to @YoJoeARAH, we get to visualize what a retro Beachhead could look like!
Retro Eel
Hot off the heals of the Classified Series general release, we are getting another army builder in the form a retro cardback Eel! We hope they stay true to how the weapons were designed!

There is a talented 3D printer designer who created custom G.I. Joe Classified series style Eel backpack/speargun that has those vintage feels so we are expecting Hasbro to do this figure justice retro style and not just repack the first release and put it on a retro cardback.
Here is a close up the speargun and backpack and they look incredible!
Retro Snow Serpent
We also recently got a Snow Serpent in the Classified Series but a retro cardback version would be awesome! The vintage figure was so great and it will be awesome to see how the figure turns out as a retro cardback figure.

The Snow Serpent is an exciting name only reveal and we are using a custom concepts to show you what he may look like. This one is exciting because he comes packed with a ton of really cool accessories like the classic tennis racket snow shoes and missile.


Cobra Ferret
The Ferret can traverse practically any terrain, it’s sorely lacking in armor. As a quad bike, it is best suited for light infantry and security detail. The Cobra Ferret is a powerful quad bike with flexible, off-road tires, one-piece welded steel wheels, a 6 forward-speed transmission, and a free-floating transverse front suspension. The bike is powered by a 16-valve liquid-cooled 115 hp 4-cycle engine. This 4-wheeler is armed with driver-controlled twin .50 caliber machine guns, a side-slung electric CMF-1 10-round grenade launcher, and 2 laser-seeking “Com-Bat” rockets.


There are many talented people that 3D print vehicles and here is a Classified Series scale custom Ferret with nonother than the Crimson Twins taking it for a joy ride.

Doc
Doc was revealed to the coming to the line via an Instagram post about the HasLab Dragonfly on July 10, 2023 so we moved him up to this section as we have not seen a digital render of the figure. YoJoeARAH also cooked up a custom Doc in 6″ scale so we can envision what he might look like.


Doc is an avowed pacifist but never backed down from a challenge. When he heard about the G.I. Joe Team, he enlisted in the Army hoping to be on the team. He was told that the Army made no such deals. That didn’t stop Doc. He went on with his training and did all he can to get on the Joe Team. It is his belief that the Joe Team is the country’s best weapon against terror and that even they need a man who’s willing to go into the field when the going gets rough and the chips are down and patch them back up.


Digital Render Reveals
Here are the digital render reveals we could see turned into preorders!
VAMP & Clutch
We also got treated to a surprise reveal of the VAMP and Clutch! Ribbon feed ammo. It fits 2 figures inside. It has a gear shift. The ontop are removeable. It has a tow hitch. Clutch comes with a helmet and tool belt that you can mix and match on other figures.

Vintage ones shown below for your reference.

SMS & Techno Viper
He has a read a screen on his right forearm to read schematics. On the side of the SMS it has a control screen on it. It comes with pneumatic weapons as well. Rockets s are about 9” long each.

SMS and Techno Viper
During the HasLab HISS Tank reveal, Lenny made a point about letting fans know that the HISS Tank comes with a tow hitch. All of the unlocks thus far have been add ons to the main HISS tank plus several figures, which leaves an empty tow hitch. What would be the perfect candidate for to take a ride on the back of the HISS Tank?


Cobra Sentry and Missile System (SMS)
We feel that the Cobra Sentry and Missile System (SMS) would be the PERFECT candidate for that tow hitch! It is a small form factor missile deployment weapon that would be the perfect add on for a HasLab campaign as a ‘thank you’ for ALL of the backers that have made the HISS Tank a success! It has two wheels and a piece to connect it to the HISS Tank’s tow hitch so they are a match made in heaven!
History of the SMS
Back in 1985, Hasbro created the S.M.S.(Sentry and Missile System), which is a is a two-component weapon system, consisting of a HISS Tank and the surface to air missile system. Like Hasbro is doing with their HasLab creations, Sears wanted Hasbro to create store exclusives to help draw customers to their stores or places orders through their catalogs. Similar to that of the C.A.T. tank, Hasbro created the Sentry and Missile System (S.M.S.) for Cobra! This set included a red Cobra H.I.S.S. tank that would tow a redecorated M.M.S. in black with red missiles. But where did this originally come from? Surely Hasbro wasn’t doing repaints early on in the line! Well, they were so let’s see where this originated from and the several repaints that followed through the years.


Big Boa is Cobra’s trainer. He has swappable heads. Finally, we can see what he looks like with his helmet off. He has his teeth knocked out, and a grizzled face. He comes with some weights and swappable hands. Big Boa was first released carded as part of the sixth series (1987). He was also sold in 1988 and was discontinued domestically in 1989. Big Boa came with a silver mouthpiece, two red flexsteel-mesh boxing gloves with white Cobra logos, a brown punching bag, and a black stand for the punching bag.



Airborne
Airborne is in his classic O-Ring color scheme. The optics can plug onto his helmet. He is really geared up with a layered look to his helmet and gear. Airborne will be released before the Dragonfly.. He is the G.I. Joe Team’s helicopter assault trooper and debuted in 1983. It’s super cool to finally see his digital render to envision what a Classified Series figure of Airborne would look like. His real name is Franklin E. Talltree, and his rank is that of sergeant E-5. Airborne was born in a Navajo Reservation in Arizona. His primary military specialty is an airborne infantryman, while as his secondary military specialty he is a helicopter gunship gunner.

Quick Kick
Until 2008, the only Quick Kick action figure to ever come out was part of the 1985 series of A Real American Hero toy line. He came with a small, dark silver backpack (round on bottom), a silver sword with round hilt, and silver nunchukus.



Techno Viper
This is the original colorway of the Techno Viper. He comes with a readout on a data pad on his wrist. He has pneumatic toys that are sticking out of his backpack. Similar to the one that comes with the HISS Tank, but

Metalhead
Metalhead is a deluxe offering. He comes with rocket launchers that can attach to his wrists. Dual rocket launchers for his backpack. Blast shield on the front of his face. He comes with swappable hair, a ton of blast effects, backpack, rifles, helmet, and a ton of rocket launchers.

Mutt and Junkyard
As you know, these were displayed at SDCC2023 with no announcement at all, we have Mutt & Junkyard. Junkyard Comes with a good boy door face and an angry face. Mutt comes with a muzzle, helmet, googles, a knife, multiple swappable hands, a knight stick, rifle and a hand gun. Mutt was released carded as part of the third series (1984). He was also sold in 1985, then was discontinued domestically in 1986. Mutt came with a black helmet, a black face mask, a black Ingram Mac-11 submachine gun with silencer, a black night stick, a black leash, and a black dog named “Junkyard.”

As a surprise to all of us, Mutt and Junkyard showed up in the Hasbro Display booth, unannounced and all! They look absolutely spectacular, with incredible detail! The Junkyard looks great wearing that dog vest, and Mutt has a very gritty look on his face, They even included arm and chest hair on him!




Retro Scarlet
Next up we got Retro Scarlett which was a foregone conclusion once we got Glenda! Floating pony tails. She comes with a quiver that the arrows can fit into, She comes with arrows, swappable hands, 2 rifles, backpack and stand. The vintage one is shown below for your reference.



Retro Recondo
Redeco of the Tiger Force version in his classic colors. He comes with the same accessories as the Tiger Force version and he will be on a retro card back and comes with a stand.

Retro Duke
Since the beginning of the GI Joe Classified Series line, collectors have been clamoring for a Retro version of Duke! It’s so cool to see him on this super large retro card back. He is a bit more jacked, and comes in his classic look. He comes with a backpack, binoculars, swappable hands, gun, rifle and classic backpack. Vintage ones shown below for your reference.
