It's my favorite figure in the line. Really unique concept (for joes that is). It's like SNAKE armor, but you can transform it into a motorcycle and get the hell out of dodge once you blow everything up. I know it's not for everyone given how far out there it is compared to other joe stuff. Same thing with the Zombie Viper. I personally hate it, but I can get why other people into that kind of stuff would see it a cool addition to the line.

I'd get it.
I found one at retail last summer while vacationing in Canada for $23.99 + tax. Although I do think it is overrated. I wanted it because it reminded me of the Cyclones from Robotech/Mospeada - but the actual toy is only OK. Figure is kind of lame.

Speaking as the guy selling them for $45, here's a breakdown I gave to a kind fellow who was on the fence about the price:
First, the retail price is pretty close to $25 with tax, then you're looking at about $15 for shipping, maybe more. I might make $5 profit, which is ridiculous considering I picked up these sets on a recent road-trip across Canada. I also offer trades; I have a list of wants, but my all means make me offers for stuff! It may seem like lot of money even before shipping, but consider two things: in time, you won't care what you paid for it, just what you have now in your possession. Also, Canadians have had to put up with exorbitant prices and shipping for, oh I dunno, since toy collecting began? And we survived, and I probably have a bigger collection than the vast majority of American collectors who refuse to deal online and pay a few bucks on domestic shipping. And I still do pretty well financially. Seems a lot of us are kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place; I'm practically giving these away at cost, and yet everyone still wants them for free. |

If you cant find it at retail for $25 then $45 shipped isn't bad for all parties involved.

I got all 4 of mine from a fellow Tanker in Canada for 9.99 a piece plus shipping in which i distributed to my friends here for the same price. Unfortunately.. I was unable to get the same deal for the hiss scout. :(
