    I don’t know, 36% off is not enough. This xover has so many issues that would not be a surprise to see a 50% off.

    Damn Hasbro, how did you ruin a Hiss tank? One of coolest vehicles EVER!

    I've been watching it like a hawk waiting for a big discount. It's hit $79 before, and this $58 today did say Cyber Monday. Keep looking, it'll likely go down again.

    Well, I had in my budget now enough for either this or the Viper three-pack. I think I'll get the three-pack.

    I understand wishing they put more effort in, but a Hisstank costs about $45. This thing is $90. Love it or hate it the price is fair. It's not a masterpiece. If it were MP quality it would cost minimum $300.

    I wonder if Hasbro would ever do a Crossover HasLab. Like, a Classified Scale HISS Tank (no electronics) that turns in to Megatron.

    Does anyone have pics comparing the hiss mode to any of the vintage toys? I couldn't find any.

    Thanks.

    By making it Megatron.
    If they did, I'd rather they do HISS Tank Optimus.

    Has anyone been able to sell the Baroness still MOSC to make up what you spent on this? I'm still hemming and hawing on this

    If somebody put Megatron in a Cobra display next to a bunch of other HISS Tanks when he was in vehicle mode, I think he’d blend in pretty well. The altmode does a good job of updating the original toy while adding new details on it (the visible block of grey and the fusion cannon) that don’t feel out of place. The real problem, IMO, is that Megatron’s robot mode makes no attempt to integrate his color scheme with that of the HISS. Instead of looking like one of the hybrid designs I loved from G.I. Joe vs TF, he ends up looking like a robot wearing parts of a HISS Tank as armor. So close, yet so far. Maybe Soundwave will be slightly better now that they’ve had 2 attempts to figure out the merged TF/Joe vehicle designs in this crossover line.

    I don't think anyone would buy that unless they really really want an O-ring Baroness
