Variations
The earliest release of Roadblock had a shorter neck (left) than the later release (right).
Body Construction
Roadblock (version 9) has an entirely new body sculpt. The entire mold was used to create Roadblock (v10) (2003) and Roadblock (v11) (2004).
Versions of Roadblock
Note that Roadblock (v8) has a file name of "Charles L. Griffith," making that figure a version of "Double Blast" (2001). However, the conventional wisdom is that this was simply an error on Hasbro's part, and that the figure is supposed to be the "Marvin F. Hinton" Roadblock of the other versions.
