Hasbro To Make Limited Edition Sgt. Rock GI Joe Figure

hasbro_sgtrock_gjjoe_head.jpg - 11150 BytesFall in Easy Company! Hasbro is producing an extremely limited, deluxe action figure set based on the classic DC Comic's WWII hero, Sgt. Rock. This amazing figure will be a Previews Shared Exclusive with WB and the HasbroCollectors.com!

The Sgt. Rock figure utilizes the original 1964 (Timeless) GI Joe body (with classic "hard hands"), and features a newly-sculpted, hand-painted/hand numbered resin head; his uniform is custom designed by GI Joe customizer Augustine Romero, using fabrics that are correct to scale and hand-dyed for authenticity. Rock�s equipment details include a leather holster, pewter grenades, a cloth web belt, and boots with real laces. The figure comes with "Winter Combat" and "U.S. Army EM Uniform" accessories, packaged in exact, hand-made reproductions of Hasbro�s distinctive 1964-era box and tray packaging. Also included in this set (featuring newly created outer box art by comics legend Joe Kubert) is an 80-page giant Sgt. Rock reprint comic. Fifth-panel window box packaging.

The Hasbro Sgt. Rock figure is being solicited in the July issue of Previews which goes on sale on Wednesday, June 28th.
