Here's my Theory on why the Hiss Driver is single carded:

For years Hasbro has had Star Wars fans bashing them for releasing new figures with vehicles. So maybe they've tried to change that for us Joe fans by giving us a throw away figure with the vehicle and a new figure as a single pack

*sigh* I hope they keep the vehicles in this line on the small side. That was one of the straws that broke my collector-camel's back when Spy Troops was in full swing. I just don't have the space for more vehicles, especially if it's stuff I already have. But dammit, I want those figures!

If Steel Brigade is correct, then this sounds great to me. I buy two Target HISS tanks, two carded drivers, and the one Rip-it with black HISS. Then the carded figures can drive while the exclusive troopers are in the cannon position. Rip-it gets his own distinctive tank with a Cobra leader (CC, Destro, etc.) in that cannon.

Works out perfect.

I wish the HISS was released in a full box with the box art like it was in the 80's, it would look much better and fit more with the carded figures.

if there was any room left in my house, it will soon be gone. i like the blue, i am just happy to finally see some vehicles make it into the line. probably won't see them at the stores though. straight to ebay they will go. i have to say though, after i get done customizing the light armored vehicle and the m1a1, the hiss is going to look like a hot-wheel car.

Yeah my office is gonna get cramped! I'll have to lose the comic books.

I really like the packaging for the HISS, I'll take two. Hopefully the Targets around here get them.
On a side note, I would love to see a new HAVOC packaged like this.

I hear you AVAC. I scored some of those cheap vehicles from Target too and put that M1A next to the Mobat and it will look awful!!!

Is the price point supposed to be $10?? If thats true, that will be awesome. I think original retail back in the day was $5.99 or $6.99. Then I remember ordering 4 of them on that mail in offer for $4.99 and the flag points. The figures haven't had much increase so I'm hoping the vehicles wont either but somehow I don't think we will be that lucky.

It looks like they are going the Star Wars route with these. Still looks better than the VvV packaging....

I don't know if I'll be getting this. There's nothing new here. I see why they're re-releasing the HISS, but it doesn't do much for me.
