(HASBRO | Ages 4 years & up | Approx. Retail Price: $27.99 | Pre-Order March 19 at 10AM ET as part of Walmart Collector Con; available Summer 2026)
G.I. JOE is a highly skilled, on-demand, special operations force of men and women from around the globe tasked with defending the world from Cobra, a ruthless criminal organization bent on total domination. The brave members of G.I. JOE are prepared to seek out Cobra in any environment on the planet. From hostile jungles to ice-clad arctic peaks…wherever there's trouble, G.I. JOE is there. New to the G.I. JOE Classified Series line, Night-Creeper (D.I.R.E Tech) comes ready with 8 accessory pieces including alternate head, 2 knives, crossbow, crossbow bolt, backpack, and 2 D.I.R.E. projection swords.
Because of the Night-Creepers Zen-like discipline and Cobra’s own delvings into areas of arcane mysticism, these adherents are particularly well-suited to manipulate D.I.R.E. (Dread-Inducing Responsive Energy) Tech manifestations giving them the ability to emanate both mental and physical projections without an accompanying containment pack. The window-box display showcases the figure along with accessory loadout, figure-specific File Card Icons, gorgeous original character artwork, and dynamic digital renders.
Look for other G.I. JOE figures and toys to build your roster of heroic G.I. JOE's and Cobra villains (Each sold separately. Subject to availability.).

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
