Hasbro’s Pulse Con 2023 event has come to a close, but has brought us a bunch of fun new G.I.Joe offerings to talk about! Name-Only reveals, Digital reveals, pre-orders and water cooler rumor talk awaits us, so let’s get to it!

Name-only Reveals

There was quite a bit of heft to the name only reveal list! Check this out –

Gnawgahyde
Metal-Head
Night Creepers
Retro Beachhead
Retro Eel
Retro Snow Serpents
Cobra Ferret

Fun fact: Retro carded figures will NO LONGER BE EXCLUSIVE TO WALMART! REJOICE!! That means that not only do we get a chance to actually find retros in the wild, but the card backs won’t look like origami!

With the Ferret on the way, it’s only a matter of time before we see a Tiger Paw.

Digital Reveals

There was quite a showing in the digital reveal space, including a teaser of a name-only offering from the list above! There’s (3) categories represented. Feast your eyes on these –

In this first assortment, we get go check out digi renders of –

Cobra Big Boa
Cobra Techno-Viper
Cobra Metal-Head (!!!)
Quick Kick
Mutt & Junkyard

Now, odd that we’re seeing a digi render of Mutt & Junkyard when we saw them on display, but still awesome nonetheless. When I first saw Metal-Head on the named list, I cheered…but seeing the Digi render? I SQUEALED! I’m a HUGE Iron Grenadiers fan. So much so, that they’re my favorite of all the G.I.Joe things EVER. Needless to say, I’m STOKED!

Retro Carded Reveals

As noted above, Retro carded figures are no longer exclusive (WOO HOO!)

That’s awesome news, as the following figures were revealed –

Retro Duke
Retro Recondo
Retro Scarlett

Although we’ve known about Duke & Scarlett coming our way in this format, seeing Recondo in his old school garb is a nice surprise!

60th Anniversary

Now these? These are something special. With the 60th Anniversary of G.I.Joe right around the corner, the Hasbro team is doing it up BIG and dropping an assortment of new figures with old roots. Check it out –

60th Anniversary Action Soldier
60th Anniversary Action Sailor

These figures are gorgeous and those load outs? Mama mia, I’m gonna gobble these up!
