HISS Tank boards member bluesparrow has come through with information from ToyFare #152, which was released today! Here’s what the new issue had in store for G.I. Joe:
- The new HISS Tank will be released in early August
- New Dusty mentioned
- New Alley Viper mentioned(single card release)
- Jeff Labovitz, senior brand manager at Hasbro says that the mail away Cobra Commander will see limited release at retail in August
bluesparrow says
...according to the new issue of Toy Fare. They have a Hasbro preview, and their bit for GI Joe is a picture of the mail-away Cobra Commander in front of the new H.I.S.S. Tank. They list "early August" as the release date for the H.I.S.S.
I'm not enclosing a scan or pic of the page because Toy Fare has been somewhat militant about stuff from their magazine being disseminated online in the past.
The full text for the Cobra Commander blurb is:

starscream-99 says
Hopefully it's true, especially after hearing all the problems people had with Doc.
Nemesis*Prime says
Alright, excellent news.
Soar says
SDCC exclusive?
bluesparrow says
I wonder if the "special card" is the one we've seen?
Nirvana says
Isn't the TF "NEST" Mail Away an exclusive up in Canada (TRU, IIRC) while US fans will have to buy the figures for the stickers? I hope CC doesn't go the same way.
Zoltron says
I just want the head, thanks to Asphalt I got it.
But I'm curious to see the jungle one. That has a new body, it should be hitting ebay any day now.
