G.I. Joe Classified Series #118 Iron Grenadiers Cobra Metal-Head Deluxe Action Figure
Metal-Head holds a landmark place in the G.I. Joe Classified Series as the first official Iron Grenadiers figure Hasbro has released in the modern 6-inch collector line. Originating from the vintage Real American Hero era in 1990, his Classified debut — numbered #118 in the series — was one of the most talked-about releases in recent memory, generating passionate debate across the collector community and cementing Destro's faction as a fully realized force within the line. If you're building out a Classified Iron Grenadiers shelf, this Deluxe release is the cornerstone piece.
This item is offered in vintage condition — the box presents with honest shelf wear consistent with age and storage. The front window displays the figure and full accessory spread clearly, including multiple missiles, an alternate helmeted head, weapons, and hands. The box back (showing "113" on-panel, though community sources consistently cite the series number as #118) features dynamic action photography and detailed callout insets highlighting the Destro-branded backpack and articulated launcher arm. The side panel carries a striking full comic-art illustration of Metal-Head brandishing a knife — a collector display highlight in its own right. The bottom panel retains its clear display window.

Every review here is Judge.me–verified — no cherry-picking, no edits. Just collectors who got their figures mint instead of mangled, and came back to say so.
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.

Most in-stock orders placed before 12 PM CST ship the same day. We’re label-printing, box-packing machines — without skimping on quality. Your tracking number will probably show up before you’ve even closed the tab.
Every item gets collector-grade treatment: bubble wrap, proper padding, and zero envelope crimes. We pack like your grail’s riding shotgun with us — damage rate is under 1%.
Yep. We’ve been hunting plastic treasures since the ‘90s. We speak fluent collector (MOC, BAF, grail hunting), we’ve camped outside stores for midnight releases, and we run this place like the shop we always wished existed. Professional enablers at your service. 😎
30 days to decide if it’s true love. Not happy? Full refund to your original payment method. Damaged? We replace or refund fast. Just keep items in the condition you got them, and we’ll make it right — because the only drama in collecting should be choosing a display pose. One exception: trading card game product is final sale, since a sealed box can’t be verified once it leaves our hands.
Calling dibs costs you $0 today — we only charge your card when it ships. No awkward “I paid months ago” limbo. Mixing in-stock + pre-orders? In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders). Dates can shift — we’ll keep you posted faster than Spider-Man slings webs. And if we ever can’t deliver (rare), you’re not charged a dime.
