Toys
Breaker was first released as an action figure in 1982. All of the original sixteen figures from 1982 were released with "straight arms." The same figure was re-released in 1983 with "swivel-arm battle grip", which made it easier for figures to hold their rifles and accessories.
In Argentina, straight-arm Breaker was recolored in gray and available as "Topson". A version of Breaker nearly identical to the U.S. version was released in Argentina as "Roger" and in Brazil as "Falcon".
A new version of Breaker was released in 1997, as part of the "Stars and Stripes Forever" boxed set.
Figures of the character in the 25th Anniversary line include a bubblegum bubble accessory.

—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
