The Ghost striker X-16 in grey 2 tone airforce colors and gold tinted canopy would be awesome, and grey or white missles rather than orange.

Star Wars is the template for 3/34 scale line. If big vehicles flop there then its generally assumed that they will flop in other lines as well. Thus if Hasbro doesn't see the return for creating a new (not reissue) large scale vehicle then they'll be scrapped everywhere. Thats where the majority of Hasbro's fears lie.

You also have to consider that the 25th line more closely resembles Star Wars in percentage of adult collectors buying. VVV and Sigma Six did not. Execs at Hasbro need something for a base and to a nonJoe fan Star Wars is gonna be the closest thing.
Plus you have to consider that for the huge success of the Shuttle there was just as much failure in the AT-AT, released at the same time.

A Skystriker in modern naval ghost gray with a low-vis scheme would rock. A Mobat or Mauler would be nice too.

Well since the VAMP was my very first gijoe piece I definitely want that to be one of the vehicles. I hope they can redesign some minor details and modify them to be more modern. I think they could make the driver Clutch a nice edition as well.
The Sky Hawk is also very cool. These are both small and not a big gamble if they dont sell too many although I am certain they would do fine.
I would also love to see the hovercraft but kind of doubtful they would make something that large. Whatever they do I will be happy with because whoever designs the vehicles does a great job.

The problem with this is that I believe Star Wars fans (like me) are a bit burnt out by buying the same big vehicles every 5 years. Why would I want another AT AT for 90 DOLLARS, when I have two from the last time they came out?

Star Wars and Batman figures are Go##amn ridiculous. As cool as some are it is unbelievable how many remakes there have been and continue to be produced. The early GIjoe vehicles were so well designed even back in the early 80's that I think just some minor changes would really breathe some new life into them. I am really excited to see what they do with them.

I missed out on that behemoth when it was $15 clearanced at kb toyworks. Man do I regret not picking it up back in 97!

Agreed. Even the Conquest, with a new interior sculpted cockpit, would be great. The reason I mention it is because there is a lot of internal room in its cockpit.
The Skyhawk could have transparent plastic beneath a frame this time, rather than being just a glassless frame. The Skystriker could have a more detailed cockpit.

right, which goes back to my original point about the AT-TE and the problem with using the success of the Imp Shuttle as the template
