Special thanks to HISSTANK Boards Member SwordMonkey, we now have several in-hand images of G.I. Joe Retro Line Wave 4 (the figures are literally in hand).

These figures were located in a Walmart in Central New York.

Each case only contained Stalker & Cobra Trooper; 3 each for a total of 6. As we discovered, it is now clear that Wave 4 only consists of 2 characters and it is also likely that Wave 5 is close behind with 2 more.

You can check out the images, after the jump.

With the news of Retro Line Wave 4 popping up at a Walmart in Georgia, HISSTANK decided to dig the Walmart App for potential UPC codes assigned to the upcoming wave.

With special thanks to Shawn Davids, who seems to be the originator of the images floating around, we were able to acquire the UPCs of Retro Stalker and Retro Cobra Trooper from the back of the carded figures. It didn’t take long to discover the UPC of the 3rd figure; since Retro Waves usually consist of three 3.75 inch G.I. Joe toys.

To our surprise, we found a 4th.

The 4th UPC is also priced similar to a single carded figure rather than a figure + vehicle pack. However, since Assortment Codes are also priced in a similar manner, we had to take a look at how Retro Assortments are usually denoted. Once again to our surprise, the listing lacked the usual ‘AST’ notation.

Since the card backs of Stalker and Cobra Trooper do not indicate the third figure, we may even be looking at Wave 5 of the Retro Line. Only time will tell (or at least during Walmart Collector Con 2021).

Once again, our member Jtprime17 is back with a new list of Retro Line and Classified Series figures.

For the Retro Line, we have a brand new vehicle along with a new figure. Also, Snake Eyes seems to be returning with a new codename.

An unknown Classified Series entry can also be found. Some speculate it to be the Fortnite Snake Eyes; judging by the ‘Deluxe’ branding of this nameless figure.

Interestingly, codenames for Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins Classified Series Scarlett and Baroness has been renamed as Galaxy and Mars respectively.

Retro Line:

  • Moonshine/Zenith (Product Number: F2235)
  • Earth (Product Number: E9056) – Retro Snake Eyes. Former codename: Tarantula
  • GIJ Retro Vehicle 4 (Product Number: F1965)

Classified Series:

  • GIJ CS Deluxe (Product Number: F0759)

Movie Classified Series:

  • GIJ MV Galaxy (Product Number: F0111) – Movie Scarlett. Former codename: MV Mosquito
  • GIJ MV Mars (Product Number: F0110) – Movie Baroness. Former codename: MV Mantis

Once again, fellow HISSTANK Boards Member Jtprime17 has unearthed the 4th wave of the G.I. Joe Retro Line at German retailer Idee Und Spiel (links taken down).

Wave 4 consists of:

“Atlas” (code name)
Product number: F2726

“Leo” (code name)
Product number: F2727

“Meteor” (code name)
Product number: F2728

There is a likely chance that code name “Atlas” is a Cobra Trooper figure since the Classified wave identifies Cobra Infantry as ‘Atlas 2’,
