So I was looking at the HISS and I realized that it's kind of "plain" when next to the Sting Raider, Ghost H.A.W.K., V.A.M.P., R.A.M. and Armadillo (all of which got some new detailing.
So why were some vehicles given more of an overall compared to others? I think it makes the non-overalled vehicles look dated.
I don't like the MOBAT at all. Yeah, it's cool that it's the same as the one I had as a kid (and still have) from back in '82/'83; but it just looks dated. The way Steeler fits in the tank just doesn't look cool anymore.
The HISS was always a plain looking tank, but now it's even more so when put next to the other vehicles that got more detailing and new touches.
Can tell the '08 V.A.M.P. is more modern and better then the '82 V.A.M.P.. Can tell that the toy-making technology has come a long way and can produce better vehicles.
It's cool seeing the vehicle of old compared to the vehicle of today and seeing that it's the same but only better.
Then you got the HISS and MOBAT. They're kind of blah.
