The Australian Sgt Slaughter Commercial featured new animation and live toy segments with Australian voice actors. The whole commercial is so close to the original that it seems almost entirely unnecessary.
One important difference is that they use the actual Sgt Slaughter products available in stores unlike the American commercial which featured the prototype figure. Also, due to it being an Australian commercial, G.I.Joe is referred to as A Real International Hero. https://youtu.be/hQ9DhUHu96E

It's so weird that the vehicle that they are advertising blows up in the first few seconds of the commercial

I think there is a form of a law that says a large percentage things that go on Australian tv must be produced by and featuring Australians, including commercials. Which is probably why they used new animation and voice acting.
