Every time I hit the local vintage toy shop I am reminded of all of the figures I either buried in the backyard or gave away.

For the Classified line the following would be preferred in order.
1. Vamp with Clutch vs Stinger with Driver 2. Serpentor with Air Chariot 3. Devilfish with Torpedo 4. Snowmobile with Snow Job 5. Falcon and Viper Gliders 6. Manta 6. Any combination of Dreadnoks with the Ground Assault jeep and motorcycle, Swampfire, and Thundermachine with Thrasher. Not that we need another Zartan, but they missed an opportunity to add the Chameleon I really think these are the most easy options to produce and sell based on scale with 6 in. And would look great on display and fun for a new generation to play with. |

For this HasLab project though, it will likely be one big vehicle with driver(s). None of the HasLabs, so far have been less than $350.00 so they won't be doing any of the smaller vehicles for this unless they do a big set of them for one big price.

VAMP would be awesome and they could get some mileage out of it, with variants like the Stinger, VAMP Mark II, etc.
H.I.S.S. tank would be good, too. Again, variants would be easy to come up with. Polar Battle Bear: it would just look amazing. Skystriker. Variants. A.W.E. Striker. Most of these ideas would allow for variations, so they could potentially offer exclusives to retailers. |

It would be incredible but I'm not sure they could add a troop compartment to the original design without changing it too much and I wouldn't want that. So it can keep the original design with the weapons compartments on the sides and have it tow a troop transport? Just spit balling.

Tomahawk. It can hold a lot of figures, allow for small vehicles like the ram to fit inside and be big enough to justify the $350 price. Only thing that would suck are the blades

I like it- both shooting for the moon and tempering your expectations all in one post.

I really feel like they could produce a HISS w/ driver that doesn’t require a HasLab project. I understand that the 6” scale is a factor, but a HISS Tank or VAMP or AWE Striker in my eyes should cost no more than $100-150; including a figure. I think Hasbro can manufacture a line of vehicle/figure sets that can be sold at regular retail and not break the bank. I would love to see an updated Dreadnok Thunder Machine or Cycle for example.
For a HasLab project, I would suggest the Tomahawk w/ Lift Ticket. It’s big enough to require backing but wouldn’t necessarily have to get up into the $400-500 territory to produce and sell. I just think it would be a great choice. It’s an iconic JOE vehicle, can hold multiple figures, great for display… And I think the sweet spot cost-wise would be around $250-300. |
