...And it's something I've always wanted, the Cobra Rattler w/Wild Weasel. Freaking awesome.

I'm interested in picking up other GI JOE planes/vehicles, such as the HISS tank, the Conquest, the Sky Stryker, and that Cobra plane that looked like the Blackbird. Also, wasn't there a JOE version of the Apache helicopter? Wouldn't mind having that. I know a few has been reissued, have the others as well?

When you say reissued, do you mean in the 25th line? Only the Conquest and Rattler have been 25th reissued, with repaints of both coming soon as Target Exclusives. There was a "Desert Apache" that came out in '92, but I heard it wasn't that great of a toy.

I don't know if you are a fan of the Python Patrol or Tiger Force, but repaints of the Conquest and Rattler are already on their way.

The Python Conquest has always looked good to me.

I have a hunch they probably won't.

Ah, so I wasn't going crazy. IG and I were discussing the fact we thought the HISS was blue, and I had kept looking for one, but all I ever saw was the black one and the crimson one at Target. Is it too late to get the blue one?

Also, I picked up the black one today, along with the Tamox and Xamot comic 2-pack.

The Blue HISS is a Target exclusive. I don't know if these are still available at retail.

Congrats on your buys!

But I'm afraid it's to late for you my friend!

The "sickness" has begun, you are doomed to collecting 25TH Joes!

Sorry, WW, the Target HISS tanks are long gone, but they are not hard to find ebay.

Cobralabels.com has HISS sets. I got the original red 788 sets, they look better than the rather dull 001 labels, IMO.

I like them a lot like this:

- Though I may get a vintage, good thing I got him a "Little Bird" from TRU and some reprolabels
