| | | Views: 3,140 | | BigErn: Jesus! $85, that's insane. Didn't I read somewhere that these are going to $15? I'm all about paying a little extra to get something first but damn, not this time. Cobra-La: Get those Target coupons ready!!! BigErn: Quote: |

RolandofGilead: Anyone who pays $85 for that thing deserves what they get. If this is going to be anything like the Target Star Wars exclusives, then these things will be choking the shelves and then clearanced in about a month. I just want two. heatviper: Damn ebay!! I cant wait, I need 4 at max, but I gotta have hiss drivers with it BigErn: I like that camoed Cobra but he's joining the rest of my troops or maybe he'll just man the turret. Definately getting a Hiss Driver for each Hiss I buy. artiepants: probably a reasonable sign that these are about a month away... Johnnyakiba: WOW CAN'T ANY OF US WAIT??!! It's like a less than a month until they hit. Just like RG said, they might be on clearance after a while of being on the shelves. LET'S HOPE SO!!
For anyone who buys that, you are rich & a fool. flash70: Hey does anyone have the dpci number for this exclusive at target??? cornbot: i'm excited but at the same time i'm going to have to start getting up early in the morning to find this item before ebay people. scalpers are going to be on these and the toys r us exclsusives apacolypse: Cool...stickers not applied....easier to paint. Shogi: Yep, stickers should be on a sheet and these things are supposed to be retailing for $9.99 (At least last I heard)
I'm just curious, are there Targets in Singapore? or did this fall off the truck  PREACHER007: have a little patience they will be here soon Crimson Rage: I may have trouble getting the Target exclusives, but I aint payin' that, baby!! Shockwave-the-Magnificent: I love the fact that they didn't apply the stickers. That was one of the things I loved about Joes when I was a kid. Now, if they could stop assembling them for us and let US do it, it would be Heaven.
Shockwave
Who's still looking for pics and news about the anniversary Bazooka! RolandofGilead: Quote: |

Good luck. Brunstar: If I had to guess I would bet the hiss will be hard to find. The other two vehicles most will buy one of, the hiss I'm thinking will be used in army building and will most likely not end up on discount shelves. That and factor in that these are the only 25th anniversary vehicles out...or soon to be anyway. topnotch97: so the Cobra Driver in this HISS tank box is actually a Cobra Driver repaint from the Legions boxset? am i right? kennywr22: Ok all. Hello again. It's your freindly Target employee here to give you some info. The DPCI for the vehicles is ; 087060918. Now i've been checking on these for quite awhile now. The status has not changed which is they are still showing about 50,000 are hold. Now we have gotten all the new planograms and revisions for March and unfortunetly they are nowhere on there. Not in the toy section or the checklanes. I'm a bit bummed by this. I will continue to update you on this as it changes. Speaking of Target. We got in 2 cases of wave 4 and 1 case of wave 5 today, as well as 2 stores in the same area got in about the same. I was really kinda bummed again because i was hoping for wave 6. I did get 6 more crimson guards and 4 more air troopers though. Oh and the retail is still showing $9.99!! So load up on coupons. I know i'm getting at least 5 hisses maybe more. The Commander: Thanks for the update kennywr22! Appreciate it! VIPER 48: 50,000...That is alot of H.I.S.S Tanks...When my target gets them i think i will buy 1 of each vehicle. But i will probably buy a few tanks and A.W.E. Strikers to go with them... Agent-GHQ: If the 25th line are the representation of the old school, why are the vehicles already assembled, no original artwork and boxed with the window of the driver? Heck, I don't recall this driver as the Hiss driver back in the day.
What's up with that? pcsguy88: Where does one get these coupons? atomicpower: I decided yesterday, looking at my old hiss tank, that with that driver, I don't need to buy any of these. I must have an AWE Striker though. And probably a SHARC. pcsguy88: Quote: |

If there truly is a black release of this Hiss coming out, then there's no need for a blue one. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself. The AWE Striker will be mine, but if the vehicles take off, then I bet we'll see a Sharc with original colors and possibly Deep Six. Not to mention a single carded Grand Slam w/ new head. Just my 2 cents. Porkchop Sandwiches: Quote: |

I think I'll put Rip-It in the blue one and the other HISS drivers in the rest. canprime: Quote: |

You'll probably be able to get it at Target easily enough. Jambi: Why is everyone so certain these things are going to hit the clearance aisle when it is impossible to get figs? I don't equate the H.I.S.S. to Buzzer or the hooded CC. Thoughts? WildWeasel: I don't see how these are going to be $9.99 and the mass release ones are $14.99. Don't get me wrong, if they are that's cool. But I would think that exclusives would be the same price as the mass releases or a slightly more. Still not gonna keep me from buying probably two of each though. Hope these hit later this month or early next. Would be nice to have somewhat of a breather. dasaffe: These will definitely by $10. The vehicle packs coming down the line have lots of retooling.
Even so, I don't think a V1 Hiss is worth $15... dasaffe: Quote: |

What's up with that? | According to Hasbro, the retailers wouldn't go for non-windowed boxes.
Makes sense to me, there's nothing particularly cool about not being able to see the vehicle you're about to buy. WildWeasel: Quote: |

Well $15 isn't too bad considering what the vintage ones have been going for on evilBay. I'll gladly pay it. | Also we are getting a figure with that. I would love it if it was $10, but $15 is fine by me as well. $20 would be pushing it though. Blackdragon: Quote: |

This way the vintage artwork can be right in the front and you can also see what your buying.  Lody666: Quote: |

Lody666: Emailed the seller and he stated that his shipping costs are to cover the cost of the stuff he sells-in other words he is avoiding paying the fees. chopsooie: Ok, whats the deal with the Target coupon??? I would like one riverlos: Quote: |
