Sgt. Slaughter (G.I. Joe)

Common card · No. 482061

Sgt. Slaughter is a fictional character from the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero toy line. G.I. Joe modelled the character on the American professional wrestling character Sgt. Slaughter (Robert Rudolph Remus). Sgt. Slaughter's G.I. Joe version makes no reference to his professional wrestling inspiration, although the character uses wrestling moves and was voiced by Remus. Remus also appeared in person to introduce the episodes that were originally G.I. Joe: The Movie and was the spokesman for the G.I. Joe toy line from 1989 to early 1990, introducing new vehicles and figures in commercials. Four versions of the Sgt. Slaughter action figure were released in the 1980s. The character is known as Sgt. Slammer in Action Force, the UK version of G.I. Joe.
