G.I. Joe Classified Series Retro Cardback Duke 6-Inch Action Figure (America 250th / Walmart Exclusive) (2026 Hasbro)
Few Classified Series releases capture the dual appeal of nostalgia and exclusivity quite like this America 250th anniversary Duke. A Walmart exclusive, this 6-inch figure pairs Hasbro's modern Classified articulation with retro blister card packaging that deliberately mirrors the original 1980s G.I. Joe card format — bold logo, stripe banner, and classic character art on the front. The patriotic red, white, and blue deco sets it apart from both the standard Classified Duke releases and the earlier Hasbro Pulse retro cardback variant, making it a standout addition for any serious G.I. Joe collection.
The figure is presented factory sealed on its original retro cardback in vintage condition. Duke ships in white shirt and blue trousers befitting the anniversary color theme, accompanied by a white assault rifle, helmet, harness/backpack, and a red-starred flag accessory — all visible in the blister. The card back carries the iconic "Knowing Is Half the Battle" header alongside Duke's full file card for Conrad S. Hauser — First Sergeant, Airborne Infantryman out of St. Louis, MO — rendered in five languages, with the classic Duke portrait illustration completing the period-accurate presentation.
This release fits squarely within the Classified Series' ongoing retro cardback sub-line, which has consistently drawn collector attention for its faithful homage to vintage packaging. The America 250th deco and Walmart-exclusive designation make this a limited, event-specific release unlikely to see wide restocks. Whether displayed carded on the wall or kept as a sealed collectible, it represents a meaningful intersection of modern figure engineering and classic Joe presentation — ideal for longtime fans, Classified completists, and patriotic deco collectors alike.

Jays is my first stop in collecting. I preorder things through Walmart, Amazon, Hasbro Pulse, etc., but Jays always seem to get the items and either meet or beat the other companies pricing. I always end up cancelling my pre-orders and going with Jays. Better selection, price and MUCH MUCH better shipping quality. You can't even compare anyone else's shipping and packing to Jays. And that's why Jay's blows them all out of the water.
Great fast shipping, packaging with care. I am definitely buying from Jay's again! Such peace of mind knowing my items will arrive minty. 5 stars!
Perfect and careful packaging, shipped super quick. Thank you, will definitely be following the store!
Didn't pull any punches in item description. Came extremely fast and well packed. Extremely happy being a first time buyer! Thank you.
I've been buying from Jay's for a while now and I am never disappointed with the experience. Prices that can't be beat, easy PayPal option, and lots of bubble wrap surrounding the products. The fact that they go out of their way to make consumers happy keeps me coming back.
This is my 3rd or 4th time I have ordered from Jay's. The orders are always correct and arrive pretty quick and packaged extremely well. Best in the industry.
