Is G.I. Joe
still made?

YES — REVIVED TODAY

Confirmed in Hasbro’s 2026 product lookbook and current Classified Series assortment.

The short history

G.I. Joe began in 1964, but the smaller A Real American Hero line launched in 1982 is the version many Xennials remember: articulated figures, elaborate vehicles, file cards and a sprawling battle against Cobra.

What survived

Named characters, military-fantasy styling, accessories and the conflict with Cobra preserve the remembered world.

What changed

The current Classified line uses a premium six-inch scale instead of the 3.75-inch A Real American Hero format many Xennials remember.

Current versions

Hasbro’s current Classified Series translates familiar characters into detailed six-inch figures with extensive articulation and accessories. New figures continued in Hasbro’s 2026 assortment.
