Huge thanks to Bee’s Battlegrounds on Youtube for his review and @thefullforcepodcast for posting these images of the GI Joe Classified Series Sundown figure. I always loved when Hasbro digs into the deeper roster of the Joe universe, and Sundown is definitely one of those deep cut characters that longtime fans will appreciate seeing get the Classified treatment. Who doesn’t want another So let’s take a look at Sundown GI Joe Classified Series in hand images!
Sundown is displayed alongside his full accessory spread, which includes a pair of revolvers, a hatchet, and a wide-brimmed cowboy hat. Sporting a teal poncho with cream-colored trim over brown leather harnesses and khaki pants, he’s got a rugged Western look with lots of layered detail across the outfit. The packaging features the standard Classified window box with a blue interior and the series star graphic. His accessories are laid out beside the box, including a revolver, the hatchet, and his brown cowboy hat with a gold-toned button detail on the front.

Figure Details
The sculpt on his face shows some real character, with subtle brow lines and a weathered expression that suits the Western aesthetic. His beard has a nice mix of black and gray tones, and the eagle tattoo on the neck is cleanly placed with decent detail for the scale.

A close-up reveals the brown tactical vest without the poncho, showing the teal pouch panel on the upper chest and the light blue striping that runs along its edges. The sculpt on his hair has a nice sweep to it, with each strand defined and pulled back cleanly from the forehead. Plus you get another glimpse of the eagle tattoo on his neck!

The back of Sundown’s tactical vest shows rows of sculpted MOLLE webbing across the entire panel, with a flat rectangular patch area near the lower back. A small hex-shaped peg hole sits between the shoulder blades, and his teal undershirt peeks out at the neckline just above the vest collar.

Outfitted with brown leather knee pads and matching chunky boots, Sundown’s lower half has a lot of layered gear, including thigh holsters and additional strapping around the shins. The ammunition belt wrapping around his waist adds a nice bit of texture to the midsection.

Wrapped in his teal poncho with its cream fringe trim, the layered textures across Sundown’s torso really come through here, from the sculpted folds in the fabric to the white bandage wrap on his left bicep. His wrist features a black watch or band, a small detail that adds to the rugged, practical look.

Sundown’s head sculpt shows slicked-back dark hair with and a neatly trimmed beard, along with a tattoo on his neck. The teal poncho drapes naturally over his chest, and the sculpted bullet belt running across his waist is a nice touch.

The brown leather harness system over his torso has a gold-toned buckle at the center and a teal medallion on the belt, both catching the light nicely against the darker leather tones. His cowboy hat sits naturally on the head sculpt, with the gold button on the front adding a small but effective pop of color.

A close-up of Sundown’s forearm shows a black panther tattoo printed across the skin, with the animal in a lunging pose and solid dark ink tones. His wrist has a black digital watch with a small yellow-orange dial face, and the brown fingerless gloves have a nice chunky sculpt with padded knuckles.

The sculpt on Sundown’s brown gauntlet shows rows of small ammunition rounds along the top with a yellow-and-black insignia patch, and the molded stitching lines across the glove give it a convincing leather texture. A black holster with a teal accent dot sits on his hip, with a grenade tucked into a pouch just behind it.

A close-up of Sundown’s midsection shows the gold bullet belt wrapping around his waist, with each individual round sculpted in relief and a small turquoise stone set into the leather holster below. Sculpted feathers hang from the belt area in a tan-gold tone, adding a Western decorative element to the gear loadout.

A close-up of the underside of Sundown’s poncho shows the cream-colored interior lining with its sculpted fringe running along the entire border edge. The teal V-shaped chevron on the chest panel carries through to the inside, and the fabric folds sculpted into the plastic have a convincing drape to them.

The exterior of Sundown’s poncho shows the full spread of its Mesoamerican-inspired printed design, with stylized serpent and deity motifs in a lighter teal green against the deeper teal base. The cream fringe trim lines the entire outer edge, and the sculpted folds across the top give the piece a draped, fabric-like quality even off the figure.

The revolver has a glossy black finish on the barrel and frame, with a nice bit of sculpted detail on the cylinder and hammer. I like the look of the antiqued bronze grip, which gives the piece a weathered, Old West feel at this small scale.

The knife has a dark, metallic blade with fine serration detail along the spine and a brown sculpted handle that looks proportionally solid for the scale. I’m really digging the subtle gradient from silver to gunmetal on the blade’s edge.

The hatchet has a dark brown wood-grain handle with a slight curve to it and a silver-toned axe head that has a clean, matte metallic finish. It’s a compact little accessory, and the proportions look just right held up against the figure in the background.

A close-up of Sundown’s removable hat shows the sculpted brim curving slightly upward at the sides, with the gold-toned button on the front catching the light. The figure stands in the background wearing his teal poncho, giving a sense of how small the hat is relative to the overall figure.

Sundown is posed here next to Bulletproof from the Cops and Crooks line in a tan soft goods trenchcoat, giving a good sense of his height and proportions relative to other collectibles. The hatchet holster on his right thigh sits snug against the khaki pants, and the overall earth-tone color palette on his gear holds together well.

Sundown stands next to Wild Bill for a side-by-side comparison, and the two make a solid cowboy pairing with their complementary color palettes. Wild Bill’s olive green uniform and purple hat contrast nicely against Sundown’s earth-tone gear and teal poncho.
