Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has good reference pics that compare the size and details of an original HISS version 1 mold and the DTC HISS. I was thinking of getting a DTC HISS after seeing the great customs people have done here. Is the DTC HISS much bigger? Does it fit the 25th figures better? I can't decide if I should wait for the 25th HISS or try to snag a DTC HISS now. Any help would be much appreciated! |

I don't have comparison pictures(though Yojoe.com has good detailed pics) but I do have both vehicles. The DTC Hiss is by far one of my all time favorite vehicles, and it has plenty of room to fit the 25th figures in both the cockpit, and the turret. They don't fit well in the troop carrier(the back hatch of the tank). But neither do the classic figs due to the turret. I highly recommend the DTC version.

the DTC hiss is a bit bigger. i would use that one as you can fit more troops in it.

I love this tank. I wish I had been able to pick one up when the Hasbro Toy Shop clearanced all the DTC vehicles.

Yeah, Xerofall's custom is the bomb! Sounds like the 25th Cobra trooper will fit in the cockpit without customizing the trooper or the tank, if I'm hearing everyone correctly. Did you get the $5 DTC HISS online somewhere. I've been looking for the best deal, but they seem pretty scarce. Anyone know where the best price is? I feel dumb for not picking it up when it was on clearance. Thanks for everyones input, too!
