Body Construction

Barbecue's body is completely original - all new body parts.

Barbecue's entire body and mold were re-used for the 1989 "Slaughter's Marauders" Barbecue.

Starting with this series (Series Four, 1985), the head joint on G.I.Joe figures was changed into a head "ball." This ball allowed the head to look up and down, in addition to left and right.

International Variants

In India, Barbecue was released with blue highlights instead of gray.
