Just in time for the weekend the GI Joe Collectors Club gives us our first look at Slaughter’s Marauders Hardball. Hardball is the 5th figure preview and he looks like a great figure. I am not going to lie, as a kid Hardball was always one of my favorite figures. I always loved the massive grenade launcher he came with. It’s about time we get to add Hardball to the GI Joe collection. Check out the pictures below from the GI Joe Collectors club.

For the fourth figure reveal the GI Joe Club gives us the Python H.E.A.T. Viper. With this reveal we now get the second army builder of the set. It looks like it is a repaint of the 50th Anniversary H.E.A.T. Viper but of course this will get the Python Patrol deco. The bright yellow torso is a little bold but I think this figure will look great with the rest of the Python Patrol figures standing next to them. Can’t wait to see the rest of the set.

Here is the third figure reveal from the GI Joe Convention set. The Slaughter Marauders team gets an addition to the unit with Mutt & Junkyard. Mutt looks great even though he looks like a repaint from his earlier release. The deco looks good and appears to match up with his ’89 Marauders version. I have always liked Mutt & Junkyard so I am happy to see him included in the set. I think when all the figures are revealed it’s going to be a great looking set. I was fully in on Slaughters Marauders as a kid so I am in full nostalgia with the release of the set and lets be honest who doesn’t like a figure that comes with a K-9 companion. Keep checking back as we post the rest of the figures as they are revealed and keep checking out the GI Joe Convention page for more details.
