I never had a HISS tank and got the HasLab. Same with the VAMP.

I only remember seeing the red Sears HISS that came with the SMS in stores for $5 on clearance. Didn't get it because it was red instead of black and I had to make my money stretch, but I see they're going for a good amount now in complete condition.

Can't really think of anything else I didn't have but would want in this scale. Kind of wanted a Skystriker back in the day, but don't really want a Classified version. The way people are concerned about the Rattler size a Skystriker may not even fund.

In terms of stuff I never had as a kid, a lot of it would be the large "prestige" items that were out of budget. G.I. Joe was a relativiely affordable toy line, so it was easy for relatives to pick up a cheap item for birthdays or holidays. I think most of what I didn't have access to between myself, my brothers, and our neighbors would be way too large for Classified: the Flagg, Terrordrome, HQ, Battle Platform, etc.

I never had a Mobat or Mauler, so maybe a tank would be cool in Classified (although I would prefer non-motorized).

I think my top choice of edge-of-plausible items for Classified would be the Killer WHALE. It was right on the border between vehicle and playset and something I always wanted but was just out of reach as a kid.

I was getting Trade Federation vibes from the 2nd but I don't think it's that. Safe to say neither are GI Joe.

There is still PulseCon sometime in September and Hasbro does a 10/27 event in October. So between SDCC and these other two, there are 3 known events for Hasbro to announce product and open pre-orders remaining in 2024.

Has there been any news that Road Pig & Pet ($44.99) or Raptor ($34.99) are going to be anything other than mainline releases? We thought Raptor would be exclusive to SDCC, but now it looks like he will just be premiering at SDCC. Got a feeling we will see prototypes of both at SDCC and pre-orders could open for them around July 25th, but that is just a guess.

Starduster still seems to be the PulseCon exclusive figure, until Hasbro shows off something different next week. Pretty sure Globulus (and Pythona) will get name dropped pretty soon as part of promoting Nemesis Enforcer and they way he is featured on the back of upcoming packaging.

60th Marine Sniper and 60th HALO really need a pre-order soon if they are going to be released in 2024. There is also a mysterious "Whipsnakes" 2-pack still unrevealed for 2024.

Yeah I don't think either are Joe

At least we won't be left guessing too long
since reveal is today.


So I'm going to hope for a Paraviper.
