What's so special about tomorrow though?

Oh, my Hiss tanks are supposed to arrive on Friday.

I don't know if there's something specific about tomorrow. When they announced the new retro cards they said they would be mainline releases

Livestream today with POs dropping afterwards in the usual fashion. Scarlett and Duke to be among those. Expect new reveals of name only, renders, and full figure photo galleries to accompany the POs
https://news.hisstank.com/2023/12/06...and-more-85382

Will we see The Stinger and Ferret revealed?

I think I am all in for those preorders except for Recondo, I have the TF one and I think I am good with that one.

My HISS is set for delivery on Saturday, but I am having it sent to a FedEX pick up location because I am not going to be home Saturday and want to avoid the conversation with my wife about it. So it might be next week before I get mine.

No renders which is disappointing. Everything else is looking pretty good

I'm especially thrilled with Scarlett. That's the best production Scarlett figure ever created. Duke as well.

Preordered a bunch of Big Boas. He was a favorite of mine since I was a kid. I love the original figure as intended, Cobra DI, but, my childhood figure was either driving the Thunder machine or one of the guys riding around on the side of the vehicle.

So FedEx botched my HISS delivery today by not knocking yet again, despite someone being at home and waiting to sign. They did the same thing earlier this week with my Mole Rat delivery, which in turn caused them to be picked off by a porch pirate (I actually believe the driver stole my package as the results of Fed Ex's "investigation" doesn't add up.) Thankfully Walmart was able to issue me a refund and resend my order. As for my HISS, I scheduled mine to be picked up directly from the Fed Ex warehouse as they simply cannot be trusted at this point to not screw it up.

Firefly has always been my favorite character on the Cobra side, and I've always wanted a Python Patrol version of him, as it seemed he would fit in naturally with the team. Well, here he is!

Yeah Scarlett and Duke are close to perfect, very impressed.

I keep trying to quit this line because while I love G I Joe it wasn't a huge thing for me as a kid but Classified keeps pulling me back in.

In the words of Shang Tsung, THEY HAVE ARRIVED!!!



I only had the chance to open one of them and assemble it. Damn the thing is pretty impressive. It's also quite light despite its size. I should probably look up what size battery it requires since I'm gong to be out tonight, in case I need to buy special ones. I put the classic window glass on the front, but I'm going to put the alternate one on the second tank. I think I'm also going to take advantage of the number stickers and number the second one 666. :lol The only thing that looks weird to me are the nerf-looking missiles.

I have not opened any of the characters yet. Really debating if I want to open CC or not. He does look pretty cool, but like the original, he's missing that extra special that makes him look like a terrorist leader. The colors are amazing though.

EDIT:

Opened up my three Hiss goons.

Driver - Pretty cool, but his joints are a bit loose. Also, he can't hold his gun for shit, though I guess it doesn't matter since his job is to drive the tank, not walk around shooting a gun. I have no idea what the punching hands have on them.

Gunner - A female version of the Driver, which is kind of weird, but whatever. I can not get her right leg to move at the hip though as it is stuck. At least her job is to stand instead of the cannon thingy. She also can't hold her guns for shit.

Tactician - The colors aren't as bad in person. I would have still rather had the purple version. The gun sucks again in his hands too. The fisted arms do seem to look good on him. Joints are a bit loose too, sadly.
