As we reported to you during last month's New York Toy Fair, Hasbro will be releasing a new 3 3/4" Sgt Slaughter figure this year as their 2010 San Diego Comic Con exclusive. They will be releasing two versions of Slaughter, much like was done a few years ago with the "Pimp Daddy" Destro figure that had a gold head and a silver head. The main figure will be in his traditional USA shirt and use 100% new tooling while the variant will be based on the original version that came with the Triple T tank back in the 80's. The variant has quit a bit of new tooling but not 100%.

John Warden who worked on most of the 25th Anniversary line is the person sculpting these and the regular version will come with his hat, whistle, a WWE type wrestling belt with the G.I.Joe logo on it, baton and microphone. The variant will have the hat, whistle, baton, machine gun and revolver. Both versions I am told will also likely have a figure stand.

Variant Version


These should also end up being sold on the HasbroToyShop.com website after the con like Hasbro's exclusive have been offered in previous years.
