Roadblock's Filecard

Figure Description:

Roadblock (version 5) was available carded as part of the twelfth series (1993) as part of the Battle Corps subset. He was discontinued in 1994.

Many Roadblock (v4)s were also sold in 1993 packaged on the same Battle Corps cards.

Versions of Roadblock:

• Version One (1984)
• Version Two (1986)

Accessories:

Roadblock came with a black plastic "tree" of weapons - including two rifles, a pistol, a knife, 2 missiles, and a figure stand - and a light blue missile launcher (spring loaded, actually fired).

Variations:

After the 1992 recall of the Roadblock (v4), Hasbro released both Roadblock (v4) and Roadblock (v5) on Battle Corps cards. Both versions came with the same accessories and same card art. Neither version seems to be more difficult to find than the other.

Body Construction:

Roadblock's body was originally used to create Roadblock (v4) (1992). Roadblock's head was used on Roadblock (v6) (1993) and Roadblock (v7)
