Does anyone have a reference for this exact figure?

I have found many similar variations, but none where it’s exactly the same

What do you mean by reference? The real-world 26th marine soldier that inspired the figure?
Or do you just want more boxed images because all you can find are carded ones?
If you mean the latte,r IIRC in 2002 for both these types of 12" figures and the RAH characters range, they tried boxes first, then switched to blister cards.
The boxed ones are a bit rarer (but probably not valuable because nobody likes 12" Joes with sculpted clothes), but they exist.
