Hey guys, I got the finale pics of my HISS.... It has since been revised....

I decided to change the top gun from the rocket's to the gun from the RAGE. I didn't really like the original one, and also with what "mech-grunt" said, I decided to change it....

I also added some air-brushing work, unit numbers (could not get any from 'Cobra Stickers' as they only accept PayPal and I don't have it...

I also used a grill from an AMT 1972 Chevy truck model and cut it down to fit, with some blue painted headlights. Made some exhaust pipes for the rear (the car guy in me coming out), and as a joke, some chrome spinners.... hahahaha





This one is a bit fuzzy, but nothing I can do now....

This unit was started by Destro, after a Viper (the HISS AV Driver) saved him from 4 green shirts. Viper, Andrew Colman, was given a promotion to an officer and rejected it in favor of wanting to be with his unit. Destro liked his devotion to his men and decided that Cobra Commander would not miss this Viper and also finding out that G.I Joe had started a new Special Forces unit for covert missions, he made a new division.

The Viper Special Forces is made up of only the most devoted Vipers in the legions. They are all hand picked by Destro and then put through rigorous field test's. Only "Vipers" are let into the elite unit. Vipers, Night Viper's, Range Vipers, Heat Vipers, and a few others, but only Vipers. Destro like the fact that they are more likly to fallow orders, then some of the upper racked officers in Cobras racks.

Viper Andrew Colman, being the very first in the ranks, is the commanding officer of this unit. Destro told him to start finding vehicles to use. Colman being from the mid-west, always was taught by his dad to make all the farm equipment work, looked at the retired grave yard to start. Seeing lots of old original HISS's, RAGE's, Razorbacks, and also Rattler's, he got some other Vipers together and did some cutting and welding. Every peace of the "Vipers Special Forces" is made of old out to pasture Cobra Vehicles, making Destro happy to save the money...

So with that, I give you.... The "Viper Special Forces HISS AV"...
