What a few weeks it has been for the G.I. Joe Brand! Tons of new G.I. Joe Classified figures on the way and we have just reached the halfway point for the initial funding for the Updated Classic ARAH Skystriker.
If you have not had a chance to check out our coverage of Pulsecon 2021 and the new Skystriker design and ground crew we highly recommend taking a look. Hopefully we can hit that initial funding goal and grab those unlocks.
Earlier tonight the G.I. Joe brand dropped two more bombs with the reveal of the Cobra Officer and the Alley Viper. Now the Cobra Officer is live for pre-order around the web, he is not exclusive to any one store. Check out official pics, details and pre-order links below!

Operation HasLab
Throwback: the early 80s. The hair is high and so is the volume of the music coming out of the boombox speakers. You’ve just discovered the coolest cartoon ever made, G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero. You can’t get enough of it. Will the Joes finally be able to defeat Cobra once and for all?!? You’ll happily help the cause by setting up elaborate missions with your favorite action figures, played out in sandboxes, swimming pools, backyards, and bedrooms. The only thing missing from your epic adventures is the baddest combat jet known to any Joe: the Skystriker. It’s time to fulfill — or relive if you were one of the lucky ones — your childhood dreams.
That’s right. It’s the 21st century now and for G.I. Joe’s first ever HasLab we are bringing the afterburner-level heat and re-issuing the Skystriker with some awesome modern updates and incredible, exclusive unlocks. All to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero. Sure, the Skystriker has been done before (and it’s awesome every time) but never like this. Only with modern technology are we able evolve this classic combat jet by adding the most precise detail and design to bring it from the 80s to the FUTURE. Because the future is now.
The Skystriker isn’t the only incredible item you’ll be able to display in your G.I. Joe collection when you fund this HasLab. You’ll also get two o-ring figures with HasLab exclusive deco – Ace and Wayne Ruthel! The original fighter pilot, Ace, looks just as you remember him in a traditional deco scheme. And Wayne Ruthel has deco designed to call back to the original Skystriker packaging. If these two legendary action figures aren’t enough to blow your mind, we have even more to add!
You’ll be able to unlock up to 3 different tiers with even more exclusively decoed o-ring action figures and accessories, including Scarlett in a flight suit for the first time ever, Rip Cord in Night Force colors, and 2 Pit Crew members to man the runway vehicles. Fund this project today to start fighting for freedom wherever there’s trouble!

One of the biggest gifts that Hasbro could give G.I. Joe Classified Series fans is their very own HasLab project. The diversity in selection and it’s likelihood of being funded are one of the ultimate debates among G.I. Joe fans. Today we are starting up the nomination process that will lead to the top 5 most requested vehicles – playsets in G.I. Joe vs Cobra lore to be voted on in the future. There may be no guarantees that the Hasbro G.I. Joe team will be able to give us the winner of this event, however it will undoubtedly be excellent feedback.
Join us as the G.I. Joe community debates the potential for our very own G.I. Joe Classified HasLab after the jump!
