The Next Collaborative Project will be a Megatron HISS Tank with Baroness

If Megatron turns into 3.75" scale HISS tank he's much larger than a leader class figure. Definitely comparable to Rodimus.

I think this one is a bit different because G.I. Joe vs Transformers is an existing concept that people have been wanting toys for for a long time.

I’m guessing that’s The Baroness’ figure size, since that was the size of the 80s G.I. Joe toys.

It's both. It means he's big enough for a 3.75 figure (the one he comes with) to ride in. So that could be why he is $90 afterall, he's gonna be pretty big.

Everything released under the Transformers Crossovers line had a transforming bot so far. I don't see that changing now.

For $90 that hiss tank better transform and not just be a repaint like the previous Transformers/GI Joe crossover stuff.

Pre-ordered. That looks really nice. Don't care what size it is...that's just a neat mold IMHO.

I preordered it, but it's trying to be G1 too much. I would have liked it if they had redesigned Megatron to go with this Hiss Tank look instead of trying it to be G1 Megatron in bot mode. It lacks style.

Maybe later pics will make it look nicer.

It's not what I wanted from a crossover figure for personal reasons, but it makes sense and is good for what it is. I know we're going to see at least one more, but by locking into the 3.75" human scale, that doesn't leave many more. It's a better toy for a Joe collection than a TF one.

I'll be honest, this is my least liked type of Transformer, where there is minimal alt mode integration in robot mode. Which is kind of nuts when the HISS tank could make for a pretty good old school TF. It's angular so you could definitely design it to trasform into a boxy TF.

Also, it seems like it is not that much bigger than a leader class from the CW era after all.
