I love when the dots connect like this because after getting that full walkthrough of the Hasbro booth at Toy Fair 2026 and seeing so many of these figures in plastic form, we now have the official image reveals to back it all up thanks to the incredible coverage from the Full Force Podcast, and let me tell you, the second wave of the 2026 G.I. Joe Classified Series is absolutely stacked. Leading the charge is the all new character Sundown, joined by Dawn Moreno, Overkill, Hydro Viper, and Airtight, a lineup that blends fresh blood with long requested fan favorites. Professor Rottclaw makes his Classified debut and he is not alone, bringing along his genetically engineered Cobra Raptor, while Zanya rolls in with the Dreadnok Chameleon to bolster the Dreadnoks’ ranks. Red Dog and Taurus officially round out the Renegades team, and the Action Soldier Special Forces Legacy figure adds a grounded, military inspired presence to the wave. Cobra continues its technological push with the Walmart exclusive Night Creeper under the D.I.R.E. Tech banner, and Ninja Force Zartan is back to cause chaos for the Joes. Mainline wave preorders kick off Tuesday, February 17 at 1PM ET wherever fine toys are sold, with Ninja Force Zartan launching at Target with limited quantities on Hasbro Pulse at the same time. After seeing these in person at Toy Fair and now having the official shots in hand, I can confidently say 2026 is shaping up to be a huge year for Classified collectors.

Displayed outside the box, the full accessory spread includes two large translucent green wings, multiple helmeted head options, an unmasked head, the long staff with antler-style blade, two curved blades, a pistol, and additional red armor pieces for swapping. The soft goods cape hangs cleanly from the shoulders, and the layered red chest armor with cream accents is clearly visible against the gray base suit.

The back of the packaging features illustrated artwork of the Cobra La Royal Guard in flight, complete with wings and bladed weapons, and portrait callouts of the alternate head sculpts along the side. In the companion image, three guards advance forward with staffs in hand, capes flowing behind them, creating a unified squad display.

This image shows the staff held upright while the wings are fully extended, and the bright green translucence contrasts sharply with the red armor. The alternate head and helmet pieces are displayed nearby, including the blue-gray unmasked head and the insect mask with red striping. The explosive effect in the second shot frames the guard mid-air, wings spread wide and blades out.

Cobra La Royal Guard GI Joe Classified Series 4

The back view highlights the translucent green wings attached behind the shoulder area, and I like how the veining is sculpted into the plastic to mimic insect wings.

In the alternate shot, the guard crouches with dual curved blades drawn, showing off the clawed, organic shapes of the weapons and the red striping on the helmet.

With is alternate head, the Cobra La Royal Guard reveals a bald, blue-gray head sculpt with sharp cheekbones, narrow eyes, and a stern expression that completely changes the personality of the figure.

In the second pose, the guard plants his feet and aims the long staff forward, showing off the segmented detailing along the shaft and the curved blade at the base.

Cobra La Royal Guard GI Joe Classified Series 7

The Cobra La Royal Guard stands flanking Pythona, and I love how the red armor plates are layered over the gray ribbed under-suit with those bone-like cream accents crawling across the chest and shoulders. The insect-inspired helmet features textured compound-style eyes in blue and red with a tall crest rising up the center, and each guard grips a long staff topped with antler-shaped blades in a pale bone color. Pythona’s green skin and sharp facial sculpt pop against her dark hooded cloak and deep purple bodysuit, creating a striking contrast between the organic, almost alien armor of the guards and her sleek look.

In-Box Images

This packaged shot gives us our first look at the Cobra-La Royal Guard figure, shown standing upright in the tray with a striking red and gray color scheme and layered organic armor textures running across the torso, arms, and legs. The sculpted chest and shoulder sections feature raised, vein-like detailing, while the gray limbs and red gauntlets break up the look with clean color separation, and the exposed gray head shows a sharp grin with defined facial lines. The accessories are packed tightly around the figure, including multiple wing and armor parts and his classic sword in a pale bone color with jagged edges, along with several alternate heads that offer different expressions and helmeted looks, all clearly visible through the window and giving a solid sense of how much can be swapped straight out of the box.

Cobra La Royal Guard GI Joe Classified Series 1

The back of the box shows a full photo of the actual Cobra La Royal Guard figure, giving us another clear look at how it appears fully assembled with the parts attached. The wings extend outward with layered vein detailing, contrasting against the red and gray body armor, while the weapons are shown in use. Along the side, the alternate heads are pictured individually, including different facial expressions and a helmeted option, making it easy to see how the look of the figure can be changed once everything is out of the package.

Cobra La Royal Guard GI Joe Classified Series 2

The side panel features a dramatic illustrated Cobra La Royal Guard shown mid flight, with the segmented armor and insect like wing structure rendered in layered reds, blues, and organic textures that feel very alive. The face design, glowing eyes, and biomechanical detailing lean heavily into that surreal Cobra La aesthetic, with sharp lighting and color contrasts that really sell the alien nature of the character. Based on the visual style and execution, we believe this artwork is by John Giang, matching the same look he brought to the previous Cobra La box art, and it fits perfectly with that established visual language.

Along the side of the box, a vertical column of small green icons highlights the Cobra-La Royal Guard’s abilities, presented as simple symbols rather than text as usual.
