Hasbro unveils upcoming G.I.Joe helmets and Transformers R.E.D Figures

It looks like Hasbro is opening the doors for a new can of collectible worms for those who loved G.I.Joe: A Real American Hero, Transformers, and everything about the 80's, as the company has released some promotional photos and details for some of their new products scheduled to hit later on this year!

With Hasbro Pulse showcasing some new stuff this Friday 11am EDT at their Facebook page, the interwebz has gotten their first look at the G.I.Joe Snake Eyes and Cobra Commander life sized helmets - which will be available exclusively at Gamestop.

Joe news website HissTank.comhttps://news.hisstank.com/2020/06/24/g-i-joe-snake-eyes-helmet-only-at-gamestop-69010 has the details on these wearable helmets - which will be available come October this year.

Next up for those who love the Robots in Disguise from Generation 1, Hasbro will be launching a new "Marvel Legends" style of Transformers in the 6" scale called "R.E.D" or "Robot Enhanced Detail" 6" style of action figures. These are non-transformable, and will instead replicate the robot modes of the Transformers as seen in the classic animated series - starting with the two most recognizable characters and leaders - Optimus Prime of the Autobots and Megatron of the Decepticons. Check out more details and photos via Superherohype.

WATCH: Hasbro uploads FULL G.I.Joe episodes in YouTube!

Fans of nostalgia and retro cartoon action are in for a real treat during these trying times, as Hasbro has done the deed and uploaded FULL EPISODES of the classic "G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero" TV Series to YouTube! Released in 1983 to compliment the popular toyline as well as the Marvel Comics series, the show followed after Hasbro commissioned Marvel Productions to produce animated commercials promoting the toys.

Following the immense popularity of those ads, a five-part animated mini-series was produced - focusing on the Joes battling their mortal enemies, the terrorist organization known as Cobra, as they raced to find three elements that powered a matter transporting machine known as the M.A.S.S Device. That pilot series would pave the way for more episodes and seasons to come, and the rest as they would say is history.
