Hasbro's Premium Members 1027 event took place on the evening of the 27th of October 2023 and had reveals from across the Hasbro key product lines.
The GI. Joe segment kicked off with some 'name only' reveals of figures they are working on with confirmation that Raptor and the Iron Grenadiers are currently in the works and will be previewed in due course.
The team then went on to unbox the VAMP, the first of their new larger vehicle format - indicating their may be others in the works? The VAMP had been known about for some time now after a digital render reveal back at SDCC 2023, and the 1027 event provided the full reveal and the pre-order launch ahead of a May 2024 release. The set will be number 112 in the line, with Cluth featuring two helmet options, a wrench and a pair of weapons. The VAMP itself includes further accessories including a fire extinguisher, fire axe, and fuel cans. The VAMP with Clutch is a Hasbro Pulse exclusive and is a May 2024 release.
Hasbro does like to put future releases into their promo art, so if you do want to read into it, the VAMP box also features a Cobra Ferret in the background of the artwork. There was also a fairly heavy hint during the unboxing of the VAMP that they have created the ability to hook up a trailer and it seems the MMS (Mobile Missile System) may well be in the works.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
