Dreadnok Road Pig joins Hasbro’s G.I. Joe Classified Series line and inspired from his 1980’s character design while given some new elements, accessories and Rawkus that have not been offered before. Road Pig is a formidable opponent for G.I. Joe. Road Pig has immense strength, violent temper and antisocial behavior as the Dreadnok bikers are known for. He was given the nickname Road Pig as he was obnoxious and smelling worse than other Dreadnok’s.

Availability: November 2024
Road Pig is packaged in a window box with logo’s, an image on the side, and images of the figures on the back.
Road Pig is given an all-new sculpt and pays tribute to his classic design while given some new elements in this modern Classified 6″ line. He is as ugly as he is awesome looking as this classic G.I. Joe villain was intended. He is heavy set and comes in his black, dark grey, silver brown and a beige skull on his shoulder pad. His knee pads have a warthog head on one, and he has guards on the front of his boots. The right hip has a strap on it that holds non-removable arrows. The crotch has a brown leather design with metallic grey buttons, a silver belt buckle with brown around it, and a black belt also with silver. The harness on his chest looks like armor that is mostly black, with grey stars, brown and gray along the sides. The skull as mentioned has spikes sticking up the top, and attached to the right shoulder pad. There are also a number of tattoos on his stomach, arms and shoulders.
Included with Road Pig are three head sculpts, normal, open mouth, and a Warthog head that is brown, grey and silver. His head includes an earring on the left ear and red sideburns.
He also comes with a mask (apologies but I just realized this was upside down!), 2 sets of hands, 2 hammers, meat hook and a riot shield. Rawkus includes 2 head sculpts.
The warthog head is interesting as it serves as armor and makes him look fierce and formidable. I also went ahead and put on the riot shield, and the hammer with the warthog head in his hands.
The other hammer has a concrete block that makes a formidable weapon in a brawl.
Rawkus is a put bull that is brown and white, and includes 2 head sculpts. He is also given a black collar with metallic silver buttons, His articulation includes a ball jointed head and neck, ball jointed torso, ball jointed hips, hinged swivel knees, hinged calves, hinged and rocker ankles.
Road Pig also comes with a meathook that also makes an interesting weapon for him.
His articulation includes a ball jointed head and neck, ball hinged shoulders, swivel biceps, double-hinged elbows, swivel-hinged wrists, ball jointed torso, ball jointed and swivel waist, ball jointed hips, swivel thighs, double-hinged knees, swivel calves, hinged and rocker ankles.
Overall, Road Pig is an excellent figure and a great addition to the Dreadknoks. Every aspect about this figure looks great, especially the design, sculpt, accessories and overall appearance. Make sure to add him to your collection today!
