Lol.. so there’s no confusion who he is.

Overall, I love it! Hasbro did this fella right! Almost everything on the figure itself is made from new tooling, the little details like the shoulder tampo are cool. His accessories are very nice nods to the vintage toy and everything comes together very, very nicely. One of the best figures to come out in the line for the Joe team for sure!
Hasbro’s oddball codename for Tunnel Rat is Dickens.
