Destro has built up an army of Iron Grenadier troopers from among his bodyguards. Chosen for their endurance, tenacity and pure meanness, these elite troopers are trained to infiltrate areas and spread panic and chaos, creating a demand for weapons (supplied by Destro, of course). Sure of their superiority, they seek out any opportunity to fight the G.I. Joe Steel Brigade troopers to prove that Iron always beats Steel in battle.

G.I. Joe 50th Anniversary Iron Grenadier
Pros
Awesome heavy gunner design.
Great gear
Cons
Would have been great to get a better repaint deco
Overall
Iron Grenadier is an awesome figure. What more needs to be said. It’s basically a carry over figure and I’m glad this has made it’s way back to retail. It’s a perfect army builder.

So does any IG come with the arm thing NF repeater has? I thought somehing covered the hole. I remember the SAW viper had the Joe trooper knives there.

It was Money Bags Destro's vest, and he came with an arm for his weapon, but none of the IGs did.

We need a side by side comparison between this and the Pursuit of Cobra IG. Looks like the only difference is the blue in the camo is a bit lighter.
HawkWasRight says
The heavy armored IG versions have always looked great, but the Cobra Sigil on their chests makes me want to scream. I've never supported this figure solely based on the inaccurate use of a Cobra symbol on an IG. Why couldn't they put the Destro Helmet with the knife symbol on it or leave it blank??? I love IGs but this has always killed me. Come on Habro, know your source material darn it.

50th is more white and blue on the camo. PoC has more of a darker grey camo.

Or, you could just do one single brush stroke with black paint and the problem would magically be solved.

I didn't intend to buy this 2 pack. But i did. I really like this version of the IG figure. And if the cobra sigil bothers me, i can cover it up. The retaliation CG came with a sticker sheet, something there might be work.
