G.I. Joe Classified Yo Joe June 2023 What We Know
With Yo Joe June 2023 well underway and firing on all cylinders we wanted to give the G.I. Joe Classified collecting community a small breakdown of what to expect moving forward for not just Yo Joe June but also SDCC 2023 and beyond!
We now have 4 upcoming confirmed preorder dates for Yo Joe June. The next G.I. Joe Classified HasLab kicks off this Monday June 5th at 11AM with the heavy favorite rumored Dragonfly with Wild Bill. This has been a long running story that will come to a official conclusion shortly. The next set of preorders are as follows, June 14th, June 21st and June 28th. It is not clear if all of these dates will be accompanied with Fans First G.I. Joe live stream events and G.I. Joe Classified preorders.
Our breakdown as to what we expect to go up for preorder is as follows: The usual caveats apply until official preorders are listed. This is a list of curated rumors from all over the web from mostly accurate computer listings and nefarious Cobra Agents.
Update #1 Chris McLeod of the Full Force YouTube Channel has has posted updated information to our Yo Joe June What We Know news post. Chris seems to have an official listing from Hasbro that indicates we have a the characters correct but just a little bit scrambled. We have corrected our wave ordering to align to his official information to reflect a more accurate understanding of what will be put on preorder and in what order. Good looking out Chris!

Alright I’m back from my mission at the H.I.S.S Tank Factory (Hasbro G.I. Joe Roundtable with the Cobra Team.) First off at the end of our roundtable the G.I. Joe Team Emily and Lenny (Cobra Team) wanted to thank everybody for making the H.I.S.S. Tank HasLab such a success and sending a huge statement about the brand! This was one of the best Hasbro round tables I have ever attended with excellent intel. I wish I had more relevant question time to get the fandom more info but look at the following awesomeness the G.I. Joe Brand as a whole is receiving.
Next unlock #2 goal will be posted up by the end of the day they are working on it right now.
No Toys at SDCC 2022 from Hasbro this year in-person. Everything this year will be preorder online or sold online and shipped to you directly. Sgt Slaughter will go up at SDCC for sale to the public.
The success of the HasLab has opened up the line to further projects and gives the G.I. Joe (Cobra) Team at Hasbro room to expand on both the main line and future HasLabs.
Ripper and All Brand New Firefly are the last two figure announcements.
G.I. JOE Classified Series Cobra HISS Tactician figure is one per order (if you order 5 you get 5) and Ron will be doing the art for that box only.
Hinted at a special numbering “crafty number” for the set. (my guess is 788 if that’s true you are extra awesome Emily and Lenny!)
You will not see this H.I.S.S. Tank again they will not reproduce it, that does not mean they will not eventually see other colors or variations in the future or a new design H.I.S.S. Tank
As of right now there are no plans for further goals beyond the #4. Will need to revisit once that goal is hit.
O-ring line still working on future info for the fans on how it will be handled.
Making sure HasLab’s are dream items, special items you can’t resist that are must have for HasLab’s. Needs of Collectors in-mind when they make the decision to move forward.
Adding texture to the H.I.S.S. Tank HasLab ladder.
H.I.S.S. Tank HasLab will be on Display at SDCC 2022.
Update 1: Second seat will NOT be a unlock goal. It was discussed and the Tank can only hold one figure even if the weapons rack turns out to be removeable (still in design not decided on yet if it will be removeable).
There were tons of G.I. Joe youtubers and site admins in attendance and I would like to thank them as well. Justin Bell (Generals Joes), Chris (Full Force Podcast), Scott, Action Figure Insider and a few people I did not know but It was a good time. Lastly Thanks to Hasbro and the G.I. Joe team and every one involved at Hasbro for the invite!
From the Florida Everglades to the New Jersey Pine Barrens the Dreadnoks have a huge role in both Comic and cartoon G.I. Joe lore. Given the popularity and versatile way the Dreadnoks are used in G.I. Joe lore we wanted them to get their very own Most Wanted set of polls. Much like we have done in the past for our Modern Era March Madness events, we will be holding our very own Wanted Dead or Alive Dreadnoks Rumble!
We hope this event helps highlight the popularity of this team of misfits and also gives the Hasbro G.I. Joe Team valuable intel on what figures we would prefer to see in the G.I. Joe Classified series future releases. It was very hard to get this list down to the Bitter 16. Lots of debate took place to make sure the core characters were represented (since the line is so new) and to have some new potential ideas for Hasbro to chew on.
We hope you join us and sound off about potential vehicles like a Classified Dreadnok Thunder Machine (one can dream) to the more down to earth individual Motorcycles like they did with the The Baroness (and Punisher) in past Hasbro Deluxe releases. The debate is wide open! What Dreadnok will be King of the Hill and be crowned the Most Wanted – That’s up to you to decide!
Join us after the jump for the first round of Wanted Dead or Alive Dreadnok Royal Rumble!
Friday is here once again and what better way to send off the work week than these fantastic Funskool customs by HissTank member OreoBuilder. This part covers the wacky colors of everyone’s favorite Dreadnoks, Rattler pilot and poem spouting Mercenary. Click on the link below for more pictures.
