Figure Description:

Rock 'N Roll (version 4) was released carded as part of the twelfth series (1993) as part of the Star Brigade: Armor Tech subset.

He was discontinued domestically in 1994.

Versions of Rock 'N Roll:

• Rock 'n Roll (1982)
• Rock 'n Roll v1.5 (1983) (Swivel Arm)
• Rock & Roll v2 (1989)
• Rock 'n Roll v3 (1991)
• Rock 'n Roll v4 (1993)
• Rock 'n Roll v5 (1997)
• Rock 'n Roll v6 (2001)
• Rock 'n Roll v7 (2005) - as Craig "Rock 'n Roll" McConnell
• Rock 'n Roll v8 (2007) - as Craig "Rock 'n Roll" McConnell
• Ssgt. Rock 'n Roll (2008)

In 2008, Rock 'n Roll was renamed to "Ssgt. Rock 'n Roll." So while there are multiple names, there are a total of ten figures based on the character "Rock 'n Roll".

Accessories:

Rock 'N Roll came with four yellow weapons, a silver helmet, a silver missile launcher that mounted on his shoulder (spring loaded, actually fired), two yellow missiles, and a yellow figure stand.

Except for the missile launcher and helmet, all of Rock 'N Roll's accessories came attached to one plastic "tree". The accessories were removed from the tree.

Variations:

Some later versions of Rock 'N Roll came with a set of purple accessories instead of yellow. Rock 'N Roll with the purple accessories is slightly harder to find than the one with yellow accessories.

Body Construction:

Like other Armor-Tech figures, Rock 'N Roll had very limited articulation. There is no "backpack screw" in the back of the figure, so the figure cannot be opened using a screw driver.

Rock N Roll shares the same legs with Heavy Duty (v2), arms with General Hawk (v4) and Robo-Joe. Rock 'N Roll's torso and head are unique.
