Hasbro is expanding its G.I. Joe Classified Legacy Collection with a new release that digs into the brand's earliest identity. Action Joe: Avalanche Response revisits one of the franchise's original concepts of service-based adventure storytelling. This figure focuses on high-altitude search-and-rescue operations and is outfitted for extreme cold-weather environments. Coming in at 6" tall, this G.I. Joe Classified hero is layered with winter survival gear, tactical harnesses, and equipment designed for navigating dangerous mountain terrain.

Instead of heavy weaponry, Avalanche Response emphasizes rescue tools and survival-focused accessories. The gear included is focused more on emergency response work than on tactical warfare against Cobra. The sculpt and outfit design reinforce that shift, with bulky winter layers showing that he is ready to embrace the cold and save anyone in need. This figure is a nice reminder from Hasbro of how classic and G.I. Joe concept originally was. The G.I. Joe Classified Series Legacy Collection: Action Joe  Avalanche Response is priced at $42.99, and pre-orders are already live on Hasbro Pulse with an October 2026 release.
