Collectors, get ready to mark your calendars and set your alarms, because Big Bad Toy Store is about to make Thursday, February 24th, at 1 PM EST (10 AM PST) a date to remember for G.I. Joe fans everywhere! As part of the 40th anniversary celebrations, BBTS is firing the opening salvo with the first produced images of one of the most hotly anticipated assortments in the G.I. Joe Classified Series lineup. Wave 9 is locked, loaded, and ready for preorder, bringing with it a mix of troop-building firepower and iconic characters that have been at the top of many collectors’ wish lists. This wave features the Cobra Viper Troop Builder 3-Pack, giving army builders a major boost, alongside the sinister mirror-image twins Tomax and Xamot, and the battle-hardened Sgt. Stalker, each rendered in the highly detailed Classified Series style. Whether you’ve been patiently waiting for these figures since their initial reveals or you’re just jumping into the line, this is the kind of wave that commands attention and makes you clear shelf space before the preorder button even goes live. We are just a few short hours away from Hasbro Pulse’s G.I. Joe ARAH 40th Anniversary Live Stream!! Tune in tomorrow to Hasbro Pulse’s YouTube channel, Thursday Feb 24th 11am EST, 8am PST to see what exciting G.I. Joe Products they will announce!

Figure Assortment Includes:

• Cobra Viper Troop Builder 3-Pack
• Tomax
• Xamot
• Sgt. Stalker

From the production image below on the left, you can see that Sgt. Stalker has a new military body, his beret is removable, he’s in a ranger role, and he has his signature military issued shemagh scarf. His facial features have also improved since the look of the digital render on the right.

Now let’s take a look at our favorite Crimson Twins Tomax & Xamot, new production image below. They have removeable sashes and shoulder pieces. They are revamped but harken back to the vintage ARAH figures of the 80’s we all know and love. They have different facial expressions so you can finally tell our favorite twins apart! By the looks of things, it seems the Crimson Twins will be listed separately, as BBTS displayed them with their individual names and not as a “pack assortment”.

The digital renders of Tomax and Xamot showcase the mirror-image twins in their classic blue and crimson uniforms, updated with the intricate sculpting and detail of the G.I. Joe Classified Series. Tomax is depicted with a sleeveless blue tunic featuring the Cobra emblem on his right chest, accented by a crimson sash draped over his left shoulder, silver shoulder armor, forearm guards, and shin guards. His dark hair is neatly styled, and his expression is confident, complementing the streamlined utility belt and holstered sidearm at his hip. Xamot mirrors his brother’s design with the same uniform elements reversed—his crimson sash crossing from right to left and the Cobra emblem on the opposite side—while sharing the same silver armor, red-and-blue color blocking, and holstered sidearm. The twin designs emphasize their symmetry while allowing for their signature subtle differences, making them instantly recognizable as Cobra’s duplicitous masterminds.

And finally, we have the Cobra Viper 3-pack, the regular Cobra Vipers have a slight variation of blue then the first retail release and then we have the Viper Officer repaint with the gold face shield and grey and burgundy color scheme. New production image is below.

The digital render of the Cobra Viper Troop Builder 3-Pack highlights three distinct versions of the elite Cobra infantry in the G.I. Joe Classified Series style. Two figures feature the classic blue uniforms with dark red tactical vests, black gloves, and tall black boots, each equipped with a silver faceplate helmet and a gray scarf draped around the neck for added combat flair. The third figure offers a variant look with a darker gray uniform base, deep red vest, and matching red gloves, paired with a tan face mask and black goggles. All three designs include detailed sculpting on the vests, holsters, and knee pads, reinforcing their battlefield readiness while giving collectors both uniformity and variety for display or troop-building setups.
