HISS Tank boards member jordan23 has passed along the UPC codes for the GI Joe 30th Anniversary/GI Joe Renegades bravo vehicles from Walmart:
1. Even if your WallyMart does not carry joes currently you can talk to a manager about trying to get them to carry them. All they have to do is activate the item and order. I did this at my own store (that does not carry joes) and product is in transit.2. By far the best news: in the system we have 3 new vehicles. All three have a retail of $19.96 and they are described as:
- GIJ Cobra Hiss Tank Unknown – (UPC#65356965167)
- GIJOE Vamp Unknown- (UPC#65356960618)
- GIJOE BLK Dragon Unkown (UPC#65356960617)
Thanks to jordan23 for the heads up!

First off I want to say hello to all you fellow hiss tankers. I am longtime lurker and dont post much. I do love viewing all the customs and reading the many different views on our wonderful GI JOE brand. Anyhow, I found a few interesting things in the system:
1. Even if your WallyMart does not carry joes currently you can talk to a manager about trying to get them to carry them. All they have to do is activate the item and order. I did this at my own store (that does not carry joes) and product is in transit.
2. By far the best news: in the system we have 3 new vehicles. All three have a retail of $19.96 and they are described as:
GIJ Cobra Hiss Tank Unknown - (UPC#65356965167)
GIJOE Vamp Unknown- (UPC#65356960618)
GIJOE BLK Dragon Unkown (UPC#65356960617)
***I figure the Unknown is that the pilots/driver are not known currently. No Skystriker currently in system. There are multiple 12inch GIJOE (police, heavy gunner, marine, etc.) with $19.96 retail. Also found some Marvel Universe packs priced at $19.96- Xforce, avengers, FF4, Superhero team; gotta be at least for upcoming 3 packs at this price point.*** Well enjoy and start to guess what could be in store for us and some of you go ahead and question my info....... No pics but remeber you heard it here first ;-)

GIJOE BLK Dragon Unkown (UPC#65356960617)
So before everyone starts to guess I figure these will be hopefully:
Hiss Tank- DTC edition that was shown as more of a classic style; saw protoype pics of this already from CON didn't we? Would be a sweet 'update' to classic. Perfect for 30th Anny.
Vamp- Hopefully a MK II, or with another pull behind vehicle( with the HAL!!!!) - has to be more than a classic vamp with the higher price tag!
Black Dragon- I pray its classic mold Dragon Fly in a black finish! Perfect blend of "Black Hawk" and "Dragon Fly" in name and style. BTW, It has to be JOE because the descript does not include Cobra.

They showed them all at the con
The hiss is most likely the crimson hiss
The vamp is the poc vamp with Steel Brigade driver
Black dragon is the VTOL from Renegades
Nictus says
isn't the black dragon thing from renegades?
and the hiss thank...isn't that going to be the red one?
and the vamp, isn't that the green version of the already released poc vamp?
if so...then i've heard this before
DAMN you darkseid! i hate typing on a touchscreen!

^This. It is good news to hear Walmart is putting them in the system. Thanks for the heads up.
jordan23 says
fixed my first post to remove my dreaming of what these could have been!!! Thanks for the reminder; Now I know.... and knowing is ....
Nictus says
several times i've talked to the manager (different ones) and they all claim that they have no control over the ordering, they make it out to be as if a computer has sole control over what the blue minions stock on the shelves.

i'm on an ipad atm
Darkseid83 says
Not sure about ipad or iphone, mines android based, the SWYPE comes factory on it. But they might have an after market app for it. I know on the Droid market they have a knockoff app of it.

Most stores say this. Up here in Canada the local Zellers stores say that too. But now that Target bought the chain I can go to them and tell the manager to get me any of the Target exclusives and he looks in his computer system and just finds which stores have them and gets those stores to ship it to him, as I am directly ordering them from him. I've amassed two dozen of those elusive Clone Wars 2-packs (Special Ops Clone Trooper and Geonosian Drone) this way all at $12 a pop! They go on E-Bay for about $30 and up before shipping. (Actually I should mention that Zellers stores had access to the Target exclusives long before Target actually bought the chain, no idea why or how but they did)
This also applies to Joes, as long as you know the UPC you can get most anything. You just have to actually say you're going to buy it. If you just say can you get in wave so and so, so I can take a look at the figures then I doubt they will. It's a Show me the money world.
