For fans of classic G.I. Joe figures, Hasbro and Super7 are collaborating on a Cold Slither Zartan ReAction+ figure. This 3.75-inch figure, reminiscent of the original A Real American Hero toys, features O-ring construction, vintage packaging, and UV-reactive glow-in-the-dark paint. It includes a microphone and guitar.
The Cold Slither Zartan ReAction+ figure is priced at $20 and will be available for pre-order on the Super7 website starting April 3rd at 9:15 AM PT.
Hasbro is taking the musical theme further with an actual Cold Slither album, a collaboration with Reigning Phoenix Music. The album description:
"In 2025, Cold Slither, the iconic heavy metal band from G.I. Joe lore, unleashes their highly anticipated debut album. Featuring the powerful self-titled track “Cold Slither,” the album delivers 10 electrifying songs blending intense guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and catchy anthemic choruses."
