With fully-loaded M2 Browning machine gun which can weigh up to 134 lbs in one hand and a Cobra Troopers neck in the other. Fan favorite, gourmet chef and one of the biggest and strongest members of the Joe team. Road Block rhymes his way back from the red rocket to the G.I. Joe Live Action Movie 2009.
Roadblock is a character from Hasbro's G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero series of toys, comics and cartoon. He is one of the most prominent African-Americans in the series. His primary function in G.I. Joe is as a heavy machine gunner and a secondary function as a cook. Roadblock's real name is Marvin F. Hinton and was born in Biloxi, Mississippi. Before he enlisted in the U.S. Army, Roadblock wanted to be a gourmet chef and towards that, was working as a bouncer in order to earn enough money to attend Escoffier School in France. An army recruiter managed to convince him that he can learn to be a chef in the Army. After enlisting, Roadblock found Army food appalling and transferred to infantry where he excelled at using heavy weapons. Roadblock is one of the biggest and strongest members of G.I. Joe. He can carry a fully-loaded M2 Browning machine gun which can weigh up to 134 lbs. Despite working in infantry, he still maintains his passion for making good food and indulges in it while engaging in his secondary duty. As a habit, Roadblock speaks in rhyme. G.I.
