POC HISS Attack Scout
Just acquired recently the latest wave of Alpha Class vehicles in the POC line… The Cobra HISS Attack Scout. I bought this to complement my POC Black HISS Tank. Here’s a short review. Out of the Box Out of the box, here’s what we’ll get… .HISS Attack Scout .Driver .Sticker sheet and instruction sheet .Diorama The Driver The driver is the same as the 25th HISS tank driver and came with the handgun (no figure stand included). The HISS Attack Scout The HISS Attack Scout comes fully assembled. Like the POC HISS, the scout has working rubber threads that rotates with the wheel once pressed & pushed. The driver can easily fit in the cockpit. A peg at the back is provided for one trooper to ride on. However, there is no handle bar provided at the cannon. Unlike the POC HISS, there is not much stickers that came with it so I just followed the instruction sheet. The only thing that I complain about the vehicle is that the designers did not consider that there should have been a canopy to protect the driver. As you can see, he’s all exposed. Here’s a picture with other Cobra Troopers from Wave6. Verdict Get it!!! |

Hopefully we can.
As of right now rumor has it that it might end up being an internet exclusive here in the US. Thanks for the pictures and review though. It looks great!

Thanks for that mate, for some reason I really like the the look of this thing, especially with the driver in it. He is pretty exposed at the front but from the side he looks totally protected, I dunno just something about how low he sits in there looks awesome. I will definitely try and pick this up.

Except for the blue Cobra symbol on the drivers chest, I like the package. The red details on the vehicle also seem to clash against the blue. But I hadn't seen any hints that there was any blue on the vehicle or figure before this and it looks nice.

Thank you for sharing the picts! Looks ok but it has always seemed unfinished to me, not sure why I think that way about it but it looks like it's missing the top of the vehicle.

Thanks for the pics. I really thought I'd like this when it came out. But for some reason I'm not digging it. Maybe once I have it in hand, it'll be cooler.

Great review - thanks for posting. Repaint driver looks ok, but the vehicle itself looks meh to me.

All this is good for is to put a tank body on top of it without having to tear apart a POC HISS IMO. It's like Hasbro said "here, have some treads". They could have at least gave it a cover of some sort.
