2020 Retro Hiss
Description: I broke down and bought a Hiss.  $25 is way too steep for this guy.  But, I figured the Hiss Driver will be tradable in a year and that will cut the cost in half.  It's cool to have a shiny new tank.  And, the cockpit working for vintage figures is nice.

I can see buying more vehicles if they come out.  I'd love another shot at the various Rattler repaints.

As people are noting, the HISS driver is already selling for $18 to $24.

I don't even know why. I'm out of touch with modern collecting. Seems to be full of people ready to throw too much money buying everything.

I picked up the AWE Striker, and was surprised with how much I liked it. The HISS is a thing I'm probably not going to seek out, though.

Funnily enough, on the box back, as seen in your profile, Hasbro actually used a 1983 HISS.

I've seen the HISS and the AWE Striker a few times now, but so far I've passed due to price.  If they bring back the water moccasin I'd pick that up for sure.  

G.I.Joe is in a really weird state these days.  High demand and really awful distribution.  I've only spotted the classified line a handful of times in person.

The fact that this Retro line is doing so well really just shows how much interest there still is in GI Joe. Given their current offerings, I doubt Hasbro will live up to that potential, but there's a lot they could do with 25th vehicle reissues alone (Water Moccasin, Sky Hawk, Stinger, etc.).
