The line is officially cancelled. It was only released to a test market in Concinatti from October to December 2004.

Thanks to Elvin Pena from TFW 2005 for originally reporting the news.

Thank God it was cancelled. I was worried that Hasbro had lost their minds.

TF wise it was clever, but why canceling the GI Joe version?

They get a figure and a much cooler vehicles,it looked like the GI Joe version was actually good...

I guess that's one of the "boy products" that didn't make enough money in 2004, cause Hasbro has complained that was one of the reasons the profits dropped.

Maybe they don't bother to distinguish them as separate lines?

Maybe BTR=BTR=BTR=BTR to them. Who knows...

Some of these are actually pretty funky... much better than the Armada ones, anyway...
