While looking recently for G.I. Joe products for sale in my area, nothing was found but a few search results for someone called Wednesday 13 appeared.
He seems to be some sort of singer, or something. Not surprisingly, the Baroness is one of his favourite characters.
A quote from roadrunner records:

In a recent interview with DCExaminer.com, Wednesday 13 explained that he was recruited into the army of horror metal 20 years ago, oddly enough during an episode of "People's Court".
While his parents were watching Judge Wapner and Rusty the Bailiff hold court, the 10-year-old North Carolina native was playing with his G.I. Joe figures when a commercial advertising an upcoming Alice Cooper show at the Charlotte Coliseum came on.
A snippet from an interview:

W13: (laughs) G.I. Joe anyday! I'm a huge fan of G.I. Joe! I still have like a hundred of my figures from when I was a little kid. I have them all on a shelf in my collector room. And I can match every weapon to each guy.
PALL: Really? That's cool (laughs).
W13: My life's been collecting them, so I know them inside and out.
A link to an interview, and a picture of him. I think he is the one with the dark hair, pale skin and creepy stare.
Q&A: Wednesday 13 at Slim'sQuote:
But that’s what I liked about it was that I kind of found this really weird balance as a kid between G.I. Joe and the Munsters. The Munsters and Addams Family… it’s comedy. And that’s what was cool to me. And then I started getting into horror movies. I don’t know, I’ve had this balance of horror movies and G.I. Joe my whole life.
If this has been posted before, I apologize. If it hasn’t been posted before, I am probably sorry for posting it. But maybe it is interesting to some and possibly another celebrity(?) G.I. Joe fan to add to the list.
