Let?s not forget that the sky striker had been readily available recently with many variants to choose from. Plus tons if people have the original and may not have seen the need to update it for $230. The fact that it got over 16,000 backers is astounding! If it was the Whale it would have went well over 20,000 easily. The classified hiss tank funded so quickly because it is the first and only large vehicle available for the line.
Im certain both lines will get another haslab in the near future. Quote:
The only people I saw criticizing the Skystriker were the ME folk. I understood where they were coming from being on the that side of the fence when it was o ring being neglected.
I agree the skystriker was more iconic and was the correct choice for the first haslab. However with the current prices for a complete vintage, no ME versions as an alternative, and overall brittle nature of the Whale, hasbro will be printing money if they choose to do that for round 2. That must have been an amazing moment. What would GI Joe have been without his art? It would be like MotU without Earl Norem or William George. Last edited by Mega Convoy; 06-30-2022 at 01:57 PM.. |

Honestly, I was never intending to get the Skystriker. However, I ended up deciding to risk regretting buying it, versus risk regretting not buying it.

The rattler is iconic, yes, but its basically a blue version of an existing jet (more or less). The HISS is a unique design unused outside GI Joe
