So tier 4 is a Mickey Mouse Cobra Commander.

It looks great, and I can't believe they are giving us 4 figures in this project.  This looks to be a great figure, and I like all the little details.

Now I'm being greedy and hope they give us a surprise 5th tier due to the fact that this is going to pass the tier 4 goal with at least 35 days to go until the end.  That is a lot of time with nothing to draw attention to the project.

Awesome for all those who backed it. Definitely best bang for your back with all tiers.
Still think they should have included a towable vehicle

I have no doubt that there is something planned to be towed by the HISS.  Especially since Lenny mentioned the tow hook during the reveal.  The question becomes, do they have something in reserve to "surprise" fans with another, higher tier?  Or is it something that will show up at retail, or fan channel stores, since the HISS has done so much better than anyone expected?  Which means that the higher ups at Hasbro will probably be willing to let the Joe brand have more money, and opportunity, to get vehicles on shelves.  Hopefully they can show retailers that there is demand as well with how well the HISS is doing.

So we passed the 16,000 tier 4 unlock yesterday!!!!

Nice to see everything is unlocked and now we enter the "hurry up and wait" stage.  34+ days until the end of the funding period means we probably have a lot of quiet time until the last few days.

Definitely a nice problem to have.

Update:

HISS Tank:


16,496 / 8,000  (+75)  As expected the daily number has dropped again, and will probably continue to drop for a few more days before levelling off at some low double digit amount.  Then of course it will jump up again in the final days.  That is, of course, if nothing else is offered/shown/incentivized for backers.


206.20% of funding goal with 31d 17h left.


Definitely has slowed down quite a bit, but of course it is all gravy from now on for Hasbro so they don't have a worry.  It will be interesting to see what they do to try and keep the interest up for this project.

WOW!!!

Just passed 24K backers with 4 hours, 30 minutes left.

First of the "Final" updates:

HISS Tank:


26,772 / 8,000  (+4,984)  Almost 5,000 more backers in less than 19 hours.  Nice finish!!

Of course this isn't the "final" total since there is usually 10 days to cancel your order if you change your mind, plus there may be payment processing issues still.  On top of that I don't think they have included non-Pulse international orders so that could up the numbers some more, but we'll have to wait and see.  Probably another week, or so.

334.65% of funding goal (so far).

That is impressive. Now I need that in scale for 3 3/4 figs

So did anyone get in on the HISS Tank Haslab?

I did and I am glad I did, but the wait is going to be killer.  Hopefully they'll get the poll out soon on which HISS Tactician colour we can vote on because I'm all about the black and red design.

not me. I'm not collecting 6". Staying 3 3/4 only.

Same here. It looks super great, but I'm not going into 6 inches scale.

Did they ever get this poll going? Curious to what the collectors want to see.
