2014 Danger at the dock SDCC exclusive Repaint Danger at the dock at retail 2015 Crimson Strike SDCC exclusive Repaint as Silent Strike at retail You are correct in saying "never with transformers" But, if the trend of the last two years continues, you are wrong. It could happen, or it couldn't. 50/50 chance. I hope it does. |

The sticker option saves this for me. I'm not a TF fan so I would have had no interest.

They are definitely the top left corner crossword choices. Hasbro's Pulse news said the SDCC figures were on the crossword. Some people filled them in there before this news even broke. My original crossword solution can remain unchanged other than replacing Destro and Overkill with Zartan and Scarlett. I chose not to put Zartan in because I thought them doing him 2 years in a row at retail was unlikely since he didn't have a good potential costume variant. And I never even would've entertained the idea of them doing such conservative choices as the SDCC figures.
Why in the world would we? There has never been any retail repaint of any HTS SDCC set, and all the previous Transformers crossover sets were HTS SDCC sets. |

Am I the only person that hates this rattler? God I hope they release a repainted retail version.

This SDCC is shaping up to be an extremely forgettable one. The Transformers Titan Wars set and now this; all ugly repaints and re-releases of stuff I dont need!!

It's amusing that they keep pretending Zartan is an interesting character that people want more of, while continuing to make uninteresting versions of him.
The rest of the set is kinda neat. |

I dig this set. I have the last three crossover sets so I'll be getting this too. I doubt there will be a retail version of this but it would be cool if they did one with the rattler painted in A-10 Warthog colors and the hiss tank I'm black.

I have to disagree man. I think this is the worst Hisstank version, IMHO. I'd rather have a vintage styled Hiss or a 30th styled one like the Shockwave SDCC Hiss. I love Soundwave but this set is just blah. I have the other 3 Transformers/GI Joe cross over SDCC sets. Completing the 4 would be my only urge to get this set.
But will agree that Zartan is in the top ten, HoH proved that didn't it? The entire 1984 line up is pure awesome, especially for Cobra villains.

But I agree, I don't care for that HISS version. I have no interest in ME figures. The only think that interests me is the Powerglide/Rattler. It's not great, but worth getting I think. I'll just find someone parting out a set. I too thought they were done with the TF crossovers. But I think they did it so they could sell them to more people. Honestly, I think they did it just to keep GIJoe alive. Last year's sets were GIJoe only and ended up at closeout stores. It's not looking good for Joe. By doing a crossover, they can tap in to the TF fanbase. |
