Okay this is my definitive list of all the vehicles I think Hasbro should re-release. I'd be totally happy with them without any upgrades or retooling. Maybe some updated paint jobs would be good though. =)
G.I. Joe Vehicles Land MOBAT [Motorized Battle Tank] RAM [Rapid Fire Motorcycle] VAMP [Multi-Purpose Attack Vehicle] APC [Amphibious Personnel Carrier] Skimobile [Polar Battle Bear] Vamp Mark II AWE Striker (All Weather Environment) Snow Cat Air Assault Copter Dragonfly [XH-1] Combat Jet Skystriker [XP-14F] Sky Hawk [Vertical Take-Off and Landing Aircraft] Conquest X-30 Sea Killer WHALE [Hovercraft] Devilfish Cobra Vehicles Land HISS [High Speed Sentry] Stinger [Night Attack Jeep] Ferret ATV Cobra STUN Dreadnok Thunder Machine Cobra Wolf Air FANG [Fully Armed Negator Gyrocopter] Rattler [Ground Attack Jet] Flight Pod (Trubble Bubble) Cobra Night Raven Terror Drome Firebat Cobra Mamba Sea Water Moccasin Cobra Night Landing - With these vehicles they could also do the group repaints, Dreadnocks, Tiger Force, Python Patrol - As a side note, this list is vehicles only. Not any of the stationary or towed items.

Any new vehicles are going to require a bit of retooling. This weekend, I bought some vintage vehicles from a friend. I had to basically force the 25th Cobra trooper into the driver's seat of the original HISS. Even Cobra Commander which is a very thin figure compared to the rest, had major issues fitting in the driver's seat. Most of the figures are just too tall. The Cobra trooper barely fits on the Ferret. He can't even sit completely on the seat. I also noticed the Driver's seat of the Thunder machine is way too small for 25th figures. I'm hoping this is taken into consideration by Hasbro rather than just giving us reissues that are not compatible with 25th figures.

I noticed these figures are a bit taller at 4" and was wondering how well they fit in some vehicles. I was thinking of getting a Thunder Machine, guess that idea is out. I thought that the three vehicles planned so far were going to be straight re-releases of the originals. That doesn't sound so good for the HISS tank. |

This reminds me of the case with a Star wars vehicle a few years back. You see, when Attack of clones was released, Hasbro made a ship for the bounty hunter Zam Wessell. This was a very small speeder, with an even smaller cockpit. I tried so hard to fit this figure in the cockpit with no luck. She ended up looking like a mummy in coffin rather than a pilot. Fans felt the same as I did. They asked Hasbro about this only to have them reply with "Zam fits fine in the cockpit with a little work". Yeah right. There was no way possibly to adjust the figure to sit in the ship, and look as though she is piloting it. I guess hasbro's idea of a figure fitting properly in a vehicle is different than mine.

Oh yea the Phantom X-19 has enough room for the figures as well. The Ghost Striker X-16 should too.

When considering this thread, it might be good to remember, even if Hasbro doesn't re-tool these vehicles for the 25th, most of us still have some cherished O-ring figures that will rock on in these vehicles.
I have fit a 25th figure in the IMP (mostly a standing vehicle), the Thunderwing (with a little work), and the Stellar Stilletto. If vehicles came out that could not accomodate 25th, but would work with our "vintage" figures, would we still buy them? I think plenty of us would... |
