And make it come with 4 snow Joes.

My only problem is how can they Haslab up the design. Real treads and lights in cockpit are a given, but can they surprise us with an upgrade.

Working windshield wipers, ha.

I joke, but the frosted canopy with the windshield wiper path detail was so neat to me as a kid.

Then you wind up with a problem of the two Cobra snow themed army builders as mass release and the GI Joe snow themed guys all exclusives to a Haslab. Snow Job is already out of production, too.

Although I presume one of those "exclusive" Haslab figures would be a theoretical Arctic Scarlett or Lady Jaye probably.

Maybe this scaled up would work better as a Haslab?

I think we have to kind of accept the HISS Tank probably WASN'T Haslab worthy but they made it one to mitigate the risk involved. I mean, the VAMP is kinda HISS sized yes?

It is but not in volume/weight its a little smaller a lot shorter and weighs about half as much .
But i think youre right it didn't need to be a haslab ?it had to be the first haslab? is what the team was thinking IMO ..

But the vamp is awesome but IMO it pales in comparison to the hiss in look/features/quality
The og vamp was cool but very light weight i had a 2-3 when i was a kid one went down the stairs to the basement back in the day ? 15 carpeted stairs btw and didnt survive the crash intact .
So i had a battle damaged one.. oh memories

I'm just going to go out on a limb and say they've already heard it, before your absolutely non-vague insinuation that you're in the focus group this time around (though the lady doth protest too much, methinks ;) ). And see, that's the thing, Toa, the Joe fanbase is exponentially larger than you and your opinion, which like the business behind that gif you shared, is inconsequential now.

I'd prefer the Rise of Cobra paint job:

My OAMCC order which I placed on the 6th using the early morning cart glitch has shipped. I thought it was scheduled for September release?

Not sure either of those would work as a HasLab. That'd have to be more about the accompanying figures, than the vehicles themselves as there's no nostalgia-tug attached to bring in both old and new audiences to pull it over the finish line. They'd be better off just sticking to the SNOW CAT or WOLF (for Cobra), and I'm not convinced those can't be done as a Pulse exclusve.
