Hey you. We don’t serve your kind in here.

I've never backed a kickstarter project, but I'd be interested if the pages are quality. Let me know, if you see any updates.

Yes. All Joes disappeared - along with their entire allocation of space. Then, the other night - I was in Walmart and saw a TechnoViper and Quick Kick on the pegs near the diecast cars. Completely out of place - like the stock boy said, "oh well - there's not a designated space any more - I'll just put these here..."

As for the HISS< once you line up the canopy, there should not be an issue and my missles hold quite well. No issue with the turret either.

Yes I think I implied as much in my post that is why I said it was worse the Ferret lacking steering, and why the lack though regretable and not very premium is at least not overtly disappointing as it is with the Ferret or as it would be if the steering was missing on a potential Classified AWE Striker.

To be honest I think the STUN could do with steering too, but the design of it would make that really quite a challenge to implement it.

The reason I was shaming the Vamp specifically for it's lack of steering wasn't related to it having it or not having it on the original toy, so much as them saying they didn't include the steering systems due to the engine block being removable.. the problem with that is ; that isn't actually true just the top cover of the engine is removable and if anything was making steering problematic it certainly wasn't that.. it might however have been the suspension system.

Anyway I just mentioned it as it is an example of regrettable cost cutting.

Lastly, I can't say my experience was the same with the Hisstank. Outside of the gull wing doors that don't sit as flush as I'd like them to, literally everything else is perfect and my copy didn't suffer from any of the issues you point out. Luck of the draw perhaps.

I think there is one, but they could add things to an additional one like "blast stickers" or name labels for other pilots or crew.
I think the quote was something along the lines of the Dragonfly is delayed for a few extra weeks for 'additional refinements'.

Not that I expected it before September anyway.

So was thinking to myself, we typically get a deluxe figure that comes out alongside a wave of figures for Classified. That got me thinking that Nemesis Enforcer or Road Pig is likely to be the deluxe figure coming out around the same time as Wave 17 (the Alpine and IG wave) which we should see renders for and be pre-ordering in June. I'm just jonesing to see what Road Pig is going to look like!!! Him being one of my all-time favorite ARAH figures and Cobras, I'm really anticipating that figure a lot.

Anyone have a source for this Dragonfly delay info? Despite watching the Joe Team interviews fairly religiously, I don't remember this. Also, saying it is delayed a few weeks implies that there was some sort of definite ship date, which I don't remember HasLabs ever having. For the Dragonfly I believe it has always been "Fall-ish".

Hasbro Pulse shows it as Summer 24.

There?s no delay as far as I?m aware. We were always told summer 2024 and with haslabs that tends to be end the end of the season so I?m expecting these late august/early september

I don?t remember any talk of a delay. I thought that Emily said it was on pace for late Sept. wonder if they will release it in stages. For example some people getting it in early Sept, late Sept, maybe Oct.
