>>10120958The HISS Tank is overpriced at $300 but Hasbro was at least able to hide behind "Well it's a fuckhuge piece of plastic with new electronic features, and it comes with several action figures that would retail for $25." Again, not trying to justify why it cost $300, but there was at least an argument there.
The Sky Striker pissed me off because they basically looked at what the Sky Striker goes for on eBay and said "We want that much. Throw in some blast effects and O-ring Joes and some other new stuff and we'll call it a day."
I don't even care about O-ring joes. I think they're overpriced and I think technology has come a long way since the original line was released. I think it's fine and dandy that the retro line exists for fans who want it, but I ended up just buying a 30A Sky Striker on eBay because it cost less and I think the 25A version of Ace looks a lot better than the original 80s version.
