Awesome! I'm not really into G.I. Joes but the accessories alone are enough to make me buy this! Tank is cool too....

looks pretty good. I still like the original HISS design more than this new one, but it's pretty cool how they've tweaked it to fit the idea that it's really Shockwave. the Destro figure isn't all that, but the accessories are neat. I like the MASS Device cubes being re-purposed as Energon cubes.

edit: Just realised that the Soundwave accessory is the Soundblaster remold with the bigger door.

Im a massive Transformers fan and collector and I also have thousands of GI Joes. This HISS to me is FAR superior then the old one and is a lot nicer looking. Also the Destro is very nice considering its based on the very rare POC "Money Bags" Destro( well parts of him,lol). Wicked Soundwave accessories as well. I gotta get this,lol. I missed getting last years SS because I didnt wanna pre-order one $99 shipped to me. I figured that was way to much for a $50 SDCC toy. Welp I was wrong because it has held its value insanely!!

That's a sweet Destro with the Dcon vest. But It would've made alot more sense to just throw a cobra symbol on Destro and then Dcon on Shockwave. Or the usual Dcon/Cobra mixed symbol

So I just noticed on ebay all the posted SDCC swag being pre-sold and I'm looking at the prices thinking seriously... :shock:

. Is it me or is the Shockwave H.I.S.S. Tank more expensive than last years Starscream Sky Striker? After looking at some much clearer pics on the tank I'm considering getting this though pricey it may be. I only hope they decide to do another comic book-like cover on the box to follow up the 2011 release. :VEHI:

It would be kinda funny if they decide to pull these convention exclusives since they're movie tie in.
