I regret passing on this thing, even though I'm glad I saved the money. This looks like the *perfect* military vehicle for toy photography, I love how much play it has while still seeming to be sturdy. But even if I had it, I'd never use those tampos. Back, foul stickers! Back, I say! I'm glad it wasn't just me who thought that warning label was for us. So immersive!

Yeah, when I first realized there were decals I had a moment of "Ooo, maybe make it more unique?" but after messing with it I like it just fine as is. I use the stickers somewhere else. And it IS sturdy, I put it through some paces out in the dirt and then posing around, it's solid.

I think I’ve watched all the HISS unboxing videos by the community and I can’t get enough of them. I really do hope Hasbro finds a way to get another Classified offering of the HISS for all the fans to enjoy. I think they will. I mean we have at least three more vehicles coming 2024, four if Dragonfly makes it. I still think 2025 for that. So VAMP, Ferret, SMS, and whatever else may scratch the Classified itch for collectors in 2024. The play has just begun. Those ports for the machine guns intrigue me as a port for stands to hold Trubble Bubbles. The HISS is a wonderful piece!

I’ve always subscribed to the notion that the Haslab HISS was the beginning. I am hoping they do tone it down and put it in stores or on their site. Remove the lights, maybe the rockets and hallow out the inside some and I’m sure it could work. I’d love to have one or two more and would be happy with dumb down versions if that’s what it takes. Also, so glad I found your channel, I had missed the last couple weeks cuz I got lost.

Unfortunately I didn't back this tank when the opportunity was presented, I later purchased two of them online that cost me a small pirate's treasure, and not together separately a few months apart as money 💵 involved was insane well over $500 each!!! Plus 90 dollars shipping through FedEx that my buddy ordered for me and hand delivered them to me from his house as he doesn't have a car and lives several miles from me and took a bus to my house alone with lugging this heavy A** box on his shoulders a good part of the way on and off the bus!!! On both tanks!!! A few months apart!!! I have no car myself I'm in the same situation as him!!! But these Tanks are incredibly cool 😎 Good review on your part!!!

While it will keep you alert, "red light" does not interfere with your night vision the way that white light does. It allows you to see well enough while also keeping you combat ready.

If the do a mainline release version of this, it will probably be without all the options. Like it will have one canopy or the other, one set of tread covers (if any), and no rocket launchers on the side. Plus no electronics and only one driver figure. Also, if they modify the cannon on top to a three-barrel version and make it a light grey instead of black, boom, it's a HISS II. That would likely drop the price in half. $150 vs the $100 for the VAMP with Clutch would make sense to me.

I d pay $120 Can for a cheaper version with one driver only. I thought it d take more than one fig in the back, but it s nice I m not in it at all for a female gunner replica, it looks overdone to me. the tactician is ok, but superfluous too. I used to go for officers in the turret, or high profiles as Scrap iron - Firefly - Bludd. just how many kinds of troops one need? and no reg troopers available breaks my cartoon - scene concept apart. I want hordes of Cobra blue troops for my scenes! there s a rumour, I hope it s true, 2 packs coming.... hey, it s a nice acquisition bro, good show
