For fans of vintage G.I. Joe, Hasbro and Super7 are collaborating on a Cold Slither Zartan ReAction+ figure. This 3.75-inch figure, featuring O-ring construction and retro packaging, glows under UV light and includes a microphone and guitar. Pre-orders start April 3rd at 9:15 AM PT on the Super7 website for $20.

Hasbro is taking the musical theme even further with an actual Cold Slither album, a collaboration with Reigning Phoenix Music. The album, featuring the title track "Cold Slither," promises 10 tracks of electrifying heavy metal.
