Checked out my Buzzer and I got a good one. He's already grown on me since the 1st pics. Love his weapons--wish I could display him holding all of them at once.
@mr-potatohead It's not perfect but some clear ponytail bands do the trick in a pinch. there's a nice scunci pack with three different sizes, very useful for Joes and other figs. I do agree though, they could use some better storage, Buzzer in particular.
At my nearest Walmart this afternoon — the store that still has about two dozen full-priced retro Lady Jayes on the shelf — I found an unopened Crimson Alley Viper marked $10 in the clearance aisle.
There's nothing better than random Walmart markdown craziness.
I see some people are getting a FedEx alerts or e-mails that their Hiss Tank is getting ready to ship. I haven't got any e-mails, and it still doesn't have tracking on my order page on Pulse. Hopefully soon.
Anyone got a shipping e-mail from Pulse or FedEx for their Hiss Tank?
We aren’t getting emails about the HISS. We are checking the FedEx app and it alerts us to labels being created. That notice can be deceptive in that I got a FedEx notice of a label created by NECA for the Turtle Van in September. Still no shipment. Nevertheless Hasbro has their crap more together than NECA could dream of. It says it’s shipping from Chino CA. So I guess we’ll see. Usually I get Hasbro stuff from Romeoville IL.
I’m away from home so if if does ship in next week I’ll see it when I get back.
It looks to be another month of a bunch of Joes showing up at the house.
Exciting!
Thwipp!
What if Hasbro didn't make enough Hiss Tanks 😭
But seriously, I got nothing either and I do have a FedEx account. The only package I have incoming is a Hawk from Pulse.
Looks like the Hawk/Buzzer/Ripper wave is hitting at a lot of Targets now, I found Hawk and Ripper at my local Target yesterday.
Just noticed the FedEx numbers added to my queue. Two from Chino. Why in the hell did I order TWO HISS tanks? I did the same damn thing for Giant Man. I'm sure the tank will be awesome, but I think I'm going to part it out and sell some of the included figures.
I did the same. looks like I committed to one the first day and one on the last day.
noticed the tracking yesterday....so nobody actually has movement yet?
I do have a label! I had to scroll way down my list of tracking numbers. It was created around 3am on 11/30.
I have 3. one of them the peg was really stiff in the neck so I see how someone could break it. it worked free just from the heat of my fingers. the heads that shipped on the figure did make a really loud "pop" when removing. louder than other figures I guess.
It’s super-weird because I am ridiculously careful with all Classified swaps due to all the issues. I didn’t even use force: they just snapped with really minor movements even before trying to pop them off. I just went ahead and replaced the neck balls with extras from various compatible Hasbro figures: one from a Classified, one from a Marcus Brody Indiana Jones figure that I cannibalized to make a Hannibal Lecter custom, and then a couple more I had lying around. Strangely, every other double-ball neck peg I’ve worked with from Hasbro has been incredibly tough and virtually impossible to break, including the ones I substituted here and also the various Range Viper neck pegs I’ve dug out of the necks they were glued into. Those things are RUGGED, and yet these snapped easier than a plastic toothpick.
could have been a batch of under cured pegs that didn't reach the right temp. some plastics will crack if under cured and hit with a hammer...like larger items like tanks or filter housings.
I wonder if those that had the necks snap had their sets ship from the same location. mine shipped from Indianapolis with no problems.
According to this YouTube video by It’s Chad! the Snowcat and the Thunder Machine are coming at a new $150-200 price point, non-Haslab.
Also, according to t_wan_toy on Instagram Road Pig, Heartwrencher, Starduster, and Nemesis Enforcer are in the works, as well as an Iron Grenadier B.A.T. that I believe was originally reported by The Full Force Podcast.
Sorry if this is already out but I didn’t see it posted in the last few days and it was new to me.
Got Hawk from Amazon. I know nothing about the character other than that he's the leader above Duke. I don't quite get the helmet, but whatever, mine doesn't wear it because it bobbles around so much. Just a warning to the folks using his smaller goggles on him, they tend to rub the paint off his eyebrow ridges, so mine wont be wearing those either. It's a cool looking character in a bomber jacket, but I wish he had a knife or something other than 2 shotguns. The 2 sidearms seem odd, as his "vintage" look doesn't really lend his look to having a modern handgun with an extended mag hanging out. I'd probably have given him a 1911 sidearm, but overall it's a cool figure I think most will enjoy. I've been cherry-picking ones I just think look cool, so I still have Nunchuk coming but that'll be it for a while.

Hadn't seen this, so thanks for posting.
I'm sure the Snowcat and Thunder Machine will look great but who is gonna have room for all this stuff? I'm stressing about where I can put the one Hiss tank I have coming. Dragonfly? No idea what I'm gonna do about that.
One side effect of 6" Classified figures is that it's bringing up details in the original figures that I'd never noticed before. Fer instance, I couldn't have told you that Hawk had two sidearms, and it looks weird now that I see it.
Regarding the vehicle rumors, I've no interest in a Snowcat as such, but I do like the idea of a half-track missile launcher. I wonder if I could talk myself into getting one and painting it green like a HAVOC II or junior Wolverine.
