HissTank.com Probably read it on the Classified Official Thread of '22 or '23.

Did you start collecting Joes w/ that wave or later in the franchise? Sometimes that seems to influence the *want factor* for figures. They were my first Joes and if they're done well - or even like some of the revised o-ring prototypes that never happened - they would be welcome in my collection. I'd like to get a Zap that has a mustache, though.

My older brother usually got the ninjas and my younger brother got the heavy weapons guys.

Did you read the comics? The way the early comics used these guys influenced how important they were to my head canon too.

I wouldnt mind an enlarged version of thunders tank/vehicle the slugger either . I really like that vehicle a larger version with treads on the back or just make the raider in green/black/brown/grey give it realistic auto turrets and weapons i?d back that haslab ..

What are anyone elses thoughts on it ?

Well that settles it, Patriot Grizzly then

The Mauler was actually an option in the focus group, too... another reason to think they're going Mauler next year.

Why are so many people suggesting the Armadillo for a possible Haslab? Have you forgotten how bloody small that thing is? It's around the same size as the VAMP, if not smaller.

The MOBAT was one of the first Joe toys I ever got, so for me it definitely has some nostalgia going for it. But for me, I think I would want to see the Slugger more than either the MOBAT or Mauler.

When it comes to the figures, I want to see Steeler, Thunder AND Heavy Metal all pop up in Classified.

How willing would you be to back two Joe Haslabs a year? I only collect Classified, so I definitely would be down for two campaigns.

I imagine Hasbro would have to dramatically improve their delivery times lest they stretch the willingness of some collectors to trust them with the amount of money that two campaigns would cost.

I think the next will go in this order:

Mauler
Moray
WHALE

I may be even more pumped for a Moray HasLab than the Rattler. I think they're tied for my favorite vehicles. Never owned the original Skystriker and don't think they'd do that anyway.

Yea, I agree, the Armadille, Devilfish, Buzzboar are easily mainline releases, similar to the Ferret

HAVOC would be better as a HasLab than a boring, outdated tank. I need cartoon deco Chuckles to be able to toss a rocket at the HISS. It’s iconic lore that Hasbro needs to acknowledge. The best way would be via a HAVOC Haslab work Chuckles as a tier. It would have to include a rocket that he could hold and maybe a blast effect for the front on the HISS.
