Rarity & Significance
Moderate significance as part of the popular Slaughter's Marauders sub-group. While the original 1985 Barbecue is more common, this recolored version is sought after by completionists building the Marauders team.
Special Features
Part of the 'Slaughter's Marauders' special repainted set; features the unique Marauders camouflage/color scheme which differs from the 1985 original version.
Notable Variations
This specific version exists primarily in this color scheme for the Marauders set; however, the mold was originally used for the 1985 Barbecue (Red) and later reused for various international releases (Funskool) and modern era tributes.
