I would love a Killer Whale and would buy multiples of the water Moccasin. I don't understand the logic that the water vehicles would have to be waterproof or even have to float. The air vehicles they made don't fly! .
Yeah really, just make them and it’s a guarantee that they will be funded!
Agree 100%. Whoever is putting their $300 collectible in a bathtub or pond doesn't give a **** anyway. Make the Moray!
Bars
I absolutely agree 100%. If I were to spend Haslab $ on a Haslab water based vehicle it would be for display purposes only not to find my nearest pond!!
Yeah like I never put any big toy like that in the water. Heck I wouldn't regardless and consider it an adult collections the haslabs.
The Mauler would be cooler. I was always partial to that one myself.
I agree. Mauler > MOBAT. Should be a badass tank, either way!
Mauler was a better vehicle, but hasbro probably would go with MOBAT as can get the extra nostalgia and the allure of OG13 collectors to drive more sales.
The Mauler with Thunder would really be awesome as well Hasbro should also make the Wolverine Tank for the 6"inch Retro Cover Girl Figure if & whenever she does come out with two interchangeable heads as well hands & removable jacket & tools too. Now that's something that Hasbro should really make.
@@tedcarterjr. I agree the Mauler would be much cooler. But just FYI, it came with Heavy Metal. Thunder came with the Slugger tank! Yo Joe!
I think the problem with the mobat is that many fans would expect it to be motorized.
Not a fan of attaching the remaining OG13 to HASLAB projects. It would immediately put them out of reach for many collectors due to the price. Keep them separate figures. Obviously, Clutch with the VAMP, Steeler with the MOBAT etc. makes sense.
They will be available in retro packaging
The Moray is the most desirable of any Joe/Cobra vehicle. The aversion to water vehicles doesn't make sense. I get these are toys but we are adults paying $300 for collectibles. Waterproofing shouldn't be a priority or a justification for skipping this line of vehicles.
The big news is that the thunder machine is considered retail. Hoping for an announcement, complete with thrasher.
I'd personally rather have a suped-up Thunder Machine as the HasLab, with customizable car parts & some cool Dreadnoks. But they've said a few times that the Thunder Machine can be made for retail.
I really want a arctic theme for GI Joe, more so than what we got right now. The Snowcat, but also V2 for Stalker with the Kayak. Also the skimobile, I had the Cobra Wolf as a kid. And finally there is the Cobra Ice snake from the 90s. Enough to tap into.
@@ViperIsland Which is REALLY surprising! That thing as a HasLab would have been crazy. Thrasher, add Monkeywrench and Zanzibar as tiers, maybe even a Cold Slither Tour concert T, etc.
@@baldstevegames9080 I'm glad it won't be a Haslab. I'm not really planning on getting the vehicles, just the figures, so I don't need a $200 Monkeywrench from the aftermarket. Let MW and Thrasher be mainline.
This and finishing out the OG 13! YES!!!
When I was a kid the APC was the best because it carried so many figures, I'm not saying Haslab but I really want to see it made
I wish they'd just drop electronics, I don't need nor want them. Much rather have a version w/o for $75-100 cheaper, The true problem is size with a WHALE or Moray, The WHALE was probably the biggest vehicle outside of the FLAGG or Defiant (or Terror Dome, which isn't a vehicle). The OG MOBAT was pretty small compared to a real world tank, the Mauler was much better. I don't think any O13 should be locked behind the HASLAB except variations. Rather have Steeler, Heavy Metal (since they prob won't do a Mauler if they do a MOBAT), & Thunderwing (who was part of the 90s version of the MOBAT). I feel like drivers from similar vehicles to the HasLab should be part of the offering, I wish Liftticket had been included with the Dragonfly since it's unlikely we'll get a a Tomahawk.
Adding some led lights to a toy is dirt cheap and does NOT make a 75$ price difference. And lights add to the overall appearance and leaving them out would be a huge deal breaker for me.
I am on board with the Mobat as the next haslab, but would love to see a mini base or a repair depot or ammo depot mini base for the tank. I am fine with the extra figs, but would love to see something more from the haslab team that expand the world further.
They don't need to waterproof. I'm not spending 400 on a vehicle to play with it in the tub
The could go all out and do a duel, Wolf VS Snowcat.
Bricklayer or Tomahawk with Lift-Ticket. Had those as as kid
They need to get away from the crowd funding model. Just have a pre-order window like they’re doing with the Marvel stuff and charge us when the thing ships. Tired of paying for this stuff a year in advance.
Other vehicle I want with a regular versión is Cobra Wolf with snow viper!
Hasbro should have a vote on what the BUYING public want for a Haslab. It's smart business, democracy in action, and problem solved.
I totally agree that its gonna be a Joe Tank. But, looking close at the Rattler patch the muzzle on the tank looks more like the Maulers. It would only make sense since the Mauler is their main battle tank.
I hope so! I much prefer the Mauler.
@@ViperIsland The M.O.B.A.T. looks similar to a M48 Patton and the Mauler to an M1 Abrams. I hope you see this Haslab.
I agree with Dex. The patches are worthless. Who sews in 2024/25? Should have added another figure. I think all of these should have a 4 figure minimum.
Definitely a MOBAT Tank. Comes with Steeler. First tier Zap, second tier Short-fuse, third tier Flash.
Col. Hawk will come with MMS thats a no brainer. Grand Slam will come with a Jump Jet pack with base. There's you OG 13.
Exactly. It's right in front of us.
@@ViperIslandbut what about a tank bunny 😢
Yeah, i'd go with that plan.
@artfire4635 I'm picturing a mature Tiny Tina from Borderlands, that should work. 🐰
Have cover girl not flash. Grand Slam came with the HAL
Dex is right, 3 figures compared to dragonfly with 4 is a let down. Could have add a grunt cobra with trolley to transport the missiles to the aircraft. Or some other crewmember that helps with the flight of the vehicle..
for sure, personally I think the gunner is a waste as well, very boring and bland figure.
My son and I both want the Killer Whale. With Hasbro having made playsets, I'd love to see the next Haslab being the Tactical Battle Platform. Third tier wish is the Wolverine with a new Cover Girl over the Mauler.
"..Wolverine with a new Cover Girl " - that's a big thumbs up.👍
Yo Joe!!!
We got the trouble bubble why not the Skyhawk.
Mauler! Steeler as the commander. Heavy Metal as the driver.
It'll be the Killer Whale. It will be so big your kid will be able to get in and drive it around.
🤣
@@randallgoeswhere With exploding depth charge sound effects!
Also, I am dying to get the thunder machine and am okay with it being a pulse exclusive. I don’t want it as a retail item because of the scarcity of the items at Target and Walmart. I would prefer preordering it from pulse.
I think they will end up making water vehicles, probably in 2-3 years, assuming the line stays strong for that long and I don’t see any reason that it won’t stay strong. They almost have to do water vehicles because collectors want them and there’s only so many land and air vehicles that make sense as HasLabs.
For me = Sky Hawk or Armadillo
Those would both be fun
I like the mobat but the mauler would be better in my opinion
I agree. Mauler > MOBAT
We need the Warthog as well. That tank can house many figures and looks beefy enough to be a Haslab!
I would be in, 1000%, on the warthog.
I placed a deposit on the ramen toy Hunter tank preorder. It makes sense that Haslab would go with the MOBAT to compete with the Hunter, but a Mauler would be cooler.
Could the unlockable tier figures like Short Fuse, Zap and Colonel Hawk be done in the retro card style instead of boxes? We shall see.
That would work really well.
@@ViperIsland I agree. It makes a lot of sense to have Steeler & the other figures to be in their retro packaging. I got my original MOBAT for Christmas 1982. 😬
Could they make it a little bit like the Mauler with an interior drivers seat?
Definetly need the mobat. And then the H.A.L to go with it
Man I've stomached thru the last 2 haslabs which I have 1 of each but still have 4 hiss tanks mainly cause it holds extra figs. Give me a havoc, bridge layer or apc. Drop the electronics and give us the water vehicles ASAP. That's what sells
I love the H.I.S.S but actually like the Dragonfly slightly more….I think the Rattler looks great, I would give it an initial 9 out of 10 just off the early images, etc.
I like tiers better over the standard or deluxe offering
What about the Havoc over the Mobat? If it is the Mobat, what can they do to make it worth it? I mean, if Dex doesn't like the Rattler because it's just a basic jet, he's not going to like the Mobat. 😅
So frustrating this isn't available to Australians.
Hopefully you can find a third-party shipping service that will mail to you at a slight markup and not the gouchy gouchy thank-you for making mine free ebay prices...
It will be the Mauler not the MOBAT and the Rattler already previewed it. Look at the patches, one was a Dragonfly that we already got, and the other looks way more like the Mauler than the Mobat. Also the targeting screen on the Rattler has what looks like the Mauler on it. Ramen toys has a Tank coming out next year that’s a dead ringer for the Mobat and Hasbro hasn’t done anything to stop it. If they had a Mobat Haslab coming out the same year than I would imagine they’d be way more aggressive in blocking them.
I agree with Zak about the patches. I would have liked a ramp rat or some more weapon options
It should be the Mauler M.B.T. not the MOBAT
You want an honest opinion ask a kid. Not only me but a lot of other people agree with Dex on the patches.
My absolute favorites growing up were the Cobra Mamba & the Cobra BUGG!
I think they should go a little bit further and introduce the bridge layer as the next haslab project😊😊😊
I can save y’all so much on Focus groups just listen to the fans
They want confirmation bias🤷🏼♂️
Im not interested in a Mobat... unfortunately. But a good thing for my wallet 😂
I agree with Dex on the patches and the lack of an additional figure. But him disliking the "jet" hurt my GI-Joe nostalgic feelings haha. I get it though. It's really aimed at adult collectors. We who have a connection with it instant bought it.
HAVOC or WARTHOG! Think playability, posing, playset. Or the MOBAT with a tube on top for a gunner......
I really dont get all this love for the basic MOBAT, it has zero function other than moving the barrel around. Id rather buy 3 more VAMPS.
With Gridiron add-ons 😎👍
I feel like Colonol Hawk would go with MMS. But could see Steeler and max 1 other OG 13. Though if they did the prenium vs basic like you mentioned I could see them maybe doing 3. Heck if they went 3 or 4 I would prbably order multiples :)
In the near future I would love to see the night raven haslab. Like in another year or two! With a black fitted wild weasel!
Now *that* would be a dream project!
It would be too large, but they could do it if they had the balls. I'd probably be willing to drop $500 on it, even though I don't have $500.
The Night Raven is probably my most favourite ARAH vehicle.
I think they're far more likely to do the Conquest.
I am full in for a mobat. Hope they hear us!
I would like to see the mauler tank that would be great.
My same prediction. And you really made a lot of sense about it! The Mobat is one of my favorite Joe vehicles. 🚗 I also want the Joe A.P.C! Kudos Son! Kudos! I just subscribed. Cool 😎 Beans 🫘
Welcome aboard! The APC was one of my childhood favs - a loaded-up Classified version would be a great idea for a HasLab!
I was just looking at my ARAH collection, and realise that the Persuader is a strong contender. It's bigger than the HISS, so probably won't come to retail. It's the same length as the Mauler, and only an inch shorter than the HAVOC. It's a very cool, underappreciated vehicle.
I love the battle damage and the battle damage helmet that harkens back to the comic #34 where both planes limped back to base.
The Mobat was my introduction to gi joe. Would be awsome to add it to my classified collection
Only way they would sell me on the MOBAT is if the have a door on the back and I can put joes in there.
Or mabey a tank-girl🤷🏼♂️🫣😂
I wouldn't try to compete with Ramen toys to make a better mobat, bridgelayer, wolverine one. -seems petty.
I like the other sugestions. Havoc, Snowcat, whale,
Tactical battle platform would be an awesome choice. Massive playability. 4 figs. But Release the skyhawk and Sharc that year in the mainline. And a water moccasin.
Following year a Whale or the Moray hydrofoil as a haslab
But where are my Strato and Ice Vipers?! Yeah, I have hope that the Ice Vipers vehicle may be made, but I highly doubt we'll get a classified Night Raven. Would love to see some vehicle operators released for vehicles too large for the classified scale. Thanks for your videos!
Cobra Wolf with snow viper 😋
I hope its not the mobat. Let's face it, Ramens tank is brilliant.
we need two haslabs per year for the calssified line
Oh hell no! Maybe you've got a huge wallet, but for the rest of us we got kids and bills!
@@jorelonplus, they take over a year to come out.
👆
No way. Two Classified Haslabs every three years.
@@jorelon ive got kids and bills two would just get us more vehicles just a little bit faster
Hey there guys, I just wanted to let any of you G.I.Joe Classified Collectors on here to know that if any of you purchased the G.I.Joe Version of Storm Shadow figure & are having a little problem of trying to make both knees to bend, you need to put a little bit of dish soap on the bottom part of the knees near the Shin guards on the front & back with a little bit of hot water, rub the dish soap gently to make sure the knees are ready to move & grab a dry hand towel or wash cloth & easily make the knees bend without trying to break them off. After you move them for a bit, they'll be a bit loose enough to make your new Storm Shadow figure be in any pose. So I just wanted to share this info with you guys & also you(Liam) & Dex if you decide to purchase it from your nearest Game Stop Store or see if Target in Canada may have it for purchase. Until then guys.....Yo Joe & have a safe & Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah too.
Pretty sure they said the thunder machine was coming in 2025 for retail already
The MOBAT would be awesome! The Mauler may be my favorite Joe tank, but I've had a soft spot for the MOBAT ever since reading "Tanks for the memories." I'd better start saving some money.
Ramen Toys is making a tank. While different companies, if the MOBAT is the next HASLAB, it shows Hasbro's failings. Hasbro needs to lead beyond the competition. The MOBAT, as cool as it will be, is not the big bang Hasbro needs to deliver.
MOBAT would be interesting. Help to knock out the O13, but as a vehicle it is kind of a generic tank. I was thinking MOBAT + Steeler as a base. Add an alt-deco Zap, silver Grand Slam , or Colonel Hawk as tiers, with alt-universe Baroness as the final tier. Zap and Grand Slam can serve as pre-tools for Short Fuze and Flash respectively. Announce HAL as a separate release compatible with both the MOBAT and VAMP.
Can't see paying that much for a single seater vehicle...
that's the one from the 80's. It will most likely have a make over like the HISS. The battery compartment in the tank will most likely be removed.
If they do it like I suggested then this will be the first Haslab for me. This is exactly what I wanted.
OMG....A Classified series WHALE would be crazy!
I personally want the MOBAT . Combine that with the Mauler and you have an up to date tank. Two seats in front. one up top and allow the rear to come down for a detailed gunner spot in the interior. Have Steeler , ( Commander ) Heavy Duty ( Driver ) and a new tank gunner and or mechanic figure and it would be perfect ...
Since the Mobat was my first vehicle as a kid, it would be a must have for me! Even though I passed on the last 2, I would definitely buy this one!
Makes sense, but I think it will be more of a MOBAT/Mauler hybrid on the level of an Abrams Battle Tank. Something like the Brawl character from the Transformers franchise.
Yeah, Zap, Flash, and Short Fuze as tiers added to the MOBAT and Steeler would be nice. They can release the MMS with Hawk and the HAL with Grand Slam.
I want the Warthog.
Thunderwing was also included in an updated MOBAT back in the late 90s. I wonder if he would be the fourth figure instead of Colonel Hawk?
Seeing as how they did a 3 3/4 inch skystriker they should have made a 3 3/4 inch rattler
I don't think that will happen anytime soon. The striker Haslab only funded because it got a lot of help at the end.
@69bjto bs....but after i left that comment they said they wouldn't do anything that small again. Small? It sure had a big price tag. And they lied to people to get us to buy them. They said they were making the 3 3/4 inch line again and never did. Just the bs classified. I have hundreds of figures with vehicles for them to ride in. No need for 25$ repeats with no vehicles. (I know theres 3 or 4 or so)
Great video guys!
Much appreciated! 🙏 Thanks for watching!
Rolling thunder would be epic!
I always skip the joes and only collect Cobra so it will be nice to take a year off from Haslabs
Yes!!! I've been calling for the M.O.B.A.T. with Steeler for the next HasLab. I want to complete the original 13 and you can't have Steeler without his tank!
Rattler is an existing aircraft???
Yes, the A-10C Thunderbolt II, which is still currently used by the military.
@ sure it has a certain similarity but it’s not really that close to a A-10. VTOL w/ 3 engines and a mid fuselage gunner vs the A-10s 2. The Rattler is awesome all tho
I’d prefer the warthog with Red Dog, Taurus, and Mercer as tiers. Or all tiers could be patches.
I LOVE THIS! You can sign me up immediately for the Renegades & a Wart Hog.
"All tiers could be patches." How dare you, sir. 🤣
I would like to see the Mean Dog. It is too big to ever be a regular retail, but not so big that it becomes impossible. It's only possible for a Haslab. The Mobat without electronics could easily be a retail in the 180/220 range "expensive yes" but not worth 300+
There's a big difference between vamp/stinger and thunder machine. The thunder machine doesn't have any re-used parts like the vamp and stringer. It would be all new. I just don't see that being retail any time soon. All for the Mobat, as long as it gets upgraded to hold more than one figure. I have no desire to have 3-4 named characters with any Haslab. Have other things like PacRats or changeable weapons or a towable item like the whirlwind or HAL.
Love that your kid is still involved. I think you guys are great. I do want some water vehicles. It’s coming. Time
I don’t see why the MoBat would need to be a Haslab over a general release. It’s a relatively small tank, and that’s it. It wouldn’t be any more plastic than the Thunder Machine really, and less intricate design. Unless they want to make it automatic movement like the original it doesn’t offer much Haslab potential. Sound effects maybe but most lighting would just be external as it doesn’t have an open cockpit like the HISS. Definitely don’t see a basic version being worth $300 +.
When did Hawk get demoted, General
I may be the only one but I would love to see the Tiger Cat with a Tiger Force Frostbite.
I'd much prefer the HAVOC. They really need to start making vehicles that can accommodate several Joes for display purposes. And i'm not talking about hiding them in the backseat of a car, lol. HAVOC has a lot of display possibilities. I definitely agree it will be a Joe land vehicle, I think that part is obvious though.
I think it's going to be the Mobat or killer Whale. I wouldn't count out the Whale largely because there is a significant amount of interest in that one. Also, an attack helicopter is more of a counter tank vehicle than rival to a A10 Warthog variant. So H.I.S.S vs Dragonfly makes more sense than Rattler vs Dragonfly, that being said, Rattler vs Mobat or Killer Whale heavily favors the Rattler... so, mabe a 1/12th sky striker at some point.
Agree Killer Whale should be a priority with the Devilfish and Shark with Deep Six from pulse. You could definitely run out Zartans ski vehicle like they did the atv or even the Moccasin. The Moray would be an awesome had lab in 2026! I mean yes the mobat is iconic but even as a kid it was bland only so much that can be done with it. I’d rather see the Mobat and Wolverine as pulse items. I’d love the gliders too at some point.
Wait, what is the Baroness's helmet design based on?
I agree with Dex, the patches were stupid. Should have been another figure. Why not do a ground crew person to go with it.
I don't know about the MOBAT. Ramen toys have tanks that will be sold for less than $200 and most likely on the market before this Haslab is even announced.
Are these prices for real, holy crap!These vehicles and figure sets are incredible and really fun to see; I've been having a blast going down memory lane. But those price tags deflated the tires pretty dang quick... hasbro going after gen x already strapped retirement funds
The Whale would be my first choice, but I’d be ok with the MOBAT. I don’t think they will have any OG 13 figures included (outside of Steeler), I think there is still a demand for the OG 13 regardless of what era you collected an s they would sell very well. Maybe they continue with the NF line. I’d also want one offering, not a deluxe offering. I like how everyone who backs it gets the same thing.
Since they already have a Covergirl figure, albeit a bad one, wouldn't the Wolverine make more sense than a MOBAT?
I don’t have particular nostalgia for the Mobat, so if this bears out, the tank and vehicles would have to be super appealing to me. But I definitely prefer the later wackier vehicles, like the Persuader or Mad Dog (think that was its name). Definitely will snatch a retail Desert Fox!! That was one of my all time favorites.
Hadn’t seen Dex’s thoughts, but I agree with him! Especially on the patches! Would rather the cost was dropped than pay for those.
Mobat will be a monster. Hopefully the driver can go duck in.
Why can't they do what the Marvel Legends team did this year with pre orders with Dragon Man and Sentinel 97?
I think snowcat or thunder machine would fit in that situation.
just a thought but doing an rc whale haslab in the future would be cool. like if they have to waterproof it anyway they could probably make it rc a lot easier then say an aircraft
this will have to be big enough to be able to seat at least 3 figures. The original didn't do that. It needs to have a driver, Steeler as the tank commander and ordnance loader
Steeler, Sgt Zap, Short Fuze, & Col Hawk for figures plus A US Army Armor patch "Third Horde".
