Article Summary

Hasbro unveils a new G.I. Joe Classified Series Cobra-La Royal Guard 6-inch action figure for collectors.
Faithfully recreates the iconic Cobra-La Royal Guard with insect-themed armor and multiple accessory options.
Features four interchangeable heads, removable armor, and weapons for ultimate customization and army-building.
Pre-orders now open for $42.99, with an expected release date in June 2026 for G.I. Joe fans to secure theirs.

Hasbro is back with a new set of G.I. Joe Classified Series figures, including more to build up your Cobra-La army. The Cobra-La Royal Guard is explicitly tied to the bizarre, ancient Cobra-La civilization introduced in G.I. Joe: The Movie (1987). The Royal Guards are genetically enhanced super-soldiers that have been bred and surgically modified to serve as the personal protectors of Golobulus, the supreme leader of Cobra-La. They are encased in organic, insect-themed armor that makes them extremely tough, and Hasbro has faithfully brought them to life with some impressive 6" figures.

Each Cobra-La Royal Guard member will come with four different heads, including two unmasked and two helmeted. A nice selection of removable armor and weapons is also included, allowing G.I. Joe Classified Series fans to army build this release. While the Cobra-La mythos is controversial, it is nice to see Hasbro exploring this part of Joe history. Pre-orders are already live for $42.99 with a June 2026 release date.
