G.I. Joe Haslab Skystriker Situation Report #4 - The Wings, Landing Gear, Missiles And Display Stand

November 30, 2021
Hasbro has released a 4th Situation Report video for their Haslab G.I. Joe Skystriker campaign highlighting the Wings, Landing Gear, Missiles And Display Stand. With just over 1 week to go before the campaign ends, it has 5,847 of the minimum 10k backers needed in order for Hasbro to move forward on it.



As seen in the video, the wings are no longer connected to the landing gear like on the original toy. The landing gear is now released by pulling the tailhook on the back underside of the jet. The wings will expand by pulling a lever on the back topside of the jet like on the original toy. They also revealed the jet will come with two sets of tail fins, one set will be grey like on the original toy and the other set will be black to match what was seen on the box art.

Sorry to hear the third tier wasn't made, but I'm happy for everyone that backed this. I know poor Joe doesn't get enough love these days. At least now you guys can say that GI Joe got more support than a Star Wars toy.?

Oh yeah, still we got tier two and that sweet Cobra crew team... I was more excited about that Cobra team than from the Joes line up.???

If they ever do a 6" HISS Tank or Rattler, I'm in trouble. Still love the 3 3/4" stuff (have a bunch), but my collecting focus has been 6" for quite a while.

Part of me hopes they just keep doing the smaller scale stuff and spare my wallet.

I'm glad we (The Joe fans that back it up) got tier 2 Ripcord unlocked... This will prove that we are glad that O-RING is back and that Haslab GI Joe is for real and with more projects to come in the future...???

I backed 3 last night ??

Not a bad haul overall but the Spring 2023 release is a pain...

I couldn't be happier! 16,805 backers for this awesome Skystriker. I hope this means that more o-ring Joe's are on the horizon. With 30 minutes left in the campaign I caved and bought a second Skystriker. I just couldn't resist. This was a grail toy from my childhood that I never owed, but played with when visiting my cousin. He also owned the first Cobra Rattler and Kenner X-wing that I ever played with. Awesome memories. I hope Haslab keeps these dreams coming in the near future. Go Joe!

it has been updated to

16,798 Backers

I still have my Kenner X-wing I got for Christmas in 1978 or was it '79 anyway poor things laser cannons are deteriorating ? electronics stopped working a long time ago

Well according to Hasbro during Pulse-Con they have a whole line of new o-ring figures planned, so this should just be the tip of the iceberg I would think.

So best Skystiker toy to date, 7 figures, 2 support vehicles and a display/Flight stand. Overall I would say not to bad.
