jgasbo1:
    First off, great job on all of the entries. Very impressive. None the less, I vote for :

    BlndWeasel - RC Heavy Mechanized Assault HISS 262
NeoDragonKnight:
    congrats everyone, this was an awesome contest (and Ill take a bit of the responsibility for helping to suggest it ;) ). I was totally blown away by peoples entries, it was way better then the other figure contest we did. Cant wait to see the final results! good luck everyone
Cold Slither:
    You all did amazingly well! I'm floored by the imagination and effort you all put into this. I'll take one of each please!
C.I.A.D.:
    Good luck, Everyone! Oh, and just a little FYI...My vote can be traded for a wraith variant, so uh...yeah...PM me :| jk of course.
Echo7Solo:
    great job guys, this is the best contest yet and the work here is all top shelf. I can't wait until next time!
xFlintx:
    Hiss DOzer all the way.. GO AVAC! The others were great too, but the Hiss dozer was my favorite.
Tuscan:
    Wow, there are some horrible selections. And you changed the rules? Strange. Go joemandan!!!
Zer0G:
    This was actually a very difficult choice given the submissions that were chosen.

    I gotta say, those Hiss Tanks creations all deserve recognition on the site maybe in the gallery section.

    My Vote went to A.V.A.C - HISS Dozer 422
Gunzlingr:
    So tough to choose just 1....
Lantern_Lad:
    HISS Water Moccasin all the way! Two vehicles in one, lights, a seamless combination of two vehicles.
COBRACOLLECTOR:
    All of them were Great

    Im a lil pissed the Pimp Daddy Destro tank with Jacuzi
    diddnt make it but i Voted the Water moccasin 171

    The paint job made that one really stand out
Tuscan:
    I knew the Hot Tub H.I.S.S. wouldn't make it because there were too many glaring imperfections but I promise I'll make a deluxe version just for you!!
Outbackk:
    They all look great...mmmm...going to be a tough one.
Dealer Destro:
    Sux I can only vote once. Good job to all the finalists. Very amazing work from each of you.
Unclassified:
    man that was tuff, i feel bad cus i would loved to vote for the dozer as well an another but couldnt , an i voted for joe's, an after i voted i noticed im not the only one, so far it looks like joe got this, sorry fellas. if i was able to vote for more i would of voted for more. it was a tuff one!
The Commander:
    All of these customs deserve a round of applause and I agree this is the best Hisstank contest yet! Great job everyone!
Killjoy:
    Great work guys!
BIG BOSS:
    BlndWeasel - RC Heavy Mechanized Assault HISS 262
    this was a hard contest.
Troynos:
    The Water Mocassin HISS is AWESOME!! It reminds me of a MASK vehicle. Great job on that. Very original.
Tuscan:
    ^ THIS!!!! It is the nicest one out of the ones the judges picked for sure. it's very creative, the paint applications are factory clean, and the modification of parts is at a level far above anything else competing against it. you can hardly tell where the H.I.S.S. meets the Moccasin!
Fierce Krypton:
    dude that mechanized tank is the crap!
Viper Officer:
    I cast my vote. I did it for Pyroclasm -Road Pig's B.O.S.S. HISS 108.

    The accesories and originality on the desing made me go with this one.

    Congrats to all...We HAVE artists here at HissTank. Excellent contest!
Tracker:
    There is a lot a impressive work here. Good job every one!!
DPrime:
    Gotta go with the HISS Dozer. It's well done and - no offense to the other entries - is something that seems a bit more thought out than the rest. While they're all good, to me this one takes the cake because it's both imaginative AND realistic. It's exactly what pretty much all armies in the world do, and makes perfect sense for Cobra to have one. The yellow, while not great for a combat role, makes perfect sense for base work, and looks surprisingly nice. The figure is also perfect.
Noizeindex:
    I also went with the Dozer. Even after coming back to this a few times this is the choice that keeps sticking out. They all are really good though!
Dunklar:
    They all look great but i have to go with BlndWeasel - RC Heavy Mechanized Assault HISS 262. Excellent work!
delta:
    Jungle Hiss gets my vote
CobraCoffee:
    Are you kidding?

    The Dreadnok Tank is the best. Not only did he modify it but he gave it character. Bumperstickers, a crew, a Dreadnok Bat! Awesome!


    Love the saw blade.
Lt. Faceless:
    BlndWeasel - RC Heavy Mechanized Assault HISS 262. Gotta go with this one.A dream come true.
Fast_Draw:
    I like the Hiss Moccasin the best and voted for that one. There were many good customs overall though.
Badgumbo:
    I'll keep my vote to myself but I just wanted to say congratulations to all the finalists and more importantly to everyone who created a custom HISS vehicle. I am a figure customizer and can appreciate the level of thought, ingenuity, and hard work that went into these by everyone. Incredible job everyone. Great contest to the Admin and support. Looking forward to what is next.
CdtWeasel:
    I was robbed, ok not really I was just outclassed. Still happy with my tank in the end, and happy to be beat down by quality.
Norseofcourse:
    I'm voting for the Urban Shock HISS. It's a great mix of fantasy with reality, which is what the Joe 'verse is all about. How the Desert Recon HISS with the Trouble Bubble isn't in the final running I have no idea.
Xerofall:
    :(

    That Hiss Moccasin was a very clever idea and is seemless in construction. You've got my vote.
buddystalin:
    The Pimp Destro one with the built in bar/couch was easily the best.

    Jungle Hiss gets my vote of those in the final selection.

    Factory perfect paint and parts.
Steel:
    This was a tough choice between 3 different models, but in the end Cobra88 ROCKED it!

    Nice job everyone!
COL Abernathy:
    The Hiss Moccasin idea stands out without being gaudy or overdone. A wild idea simply executed makes for an outstanding and believable customization.
Cobra Invasor:
    This is too damn hard because I really like all of them but my vote goes to:

    Carnage717 - H.I.S.S. Mark V 714.
(GI)Joe:
    i went with cobra88's i based my choice on what tank i would want an army of and that major looks pretty bad ass with the star wars helmet..my 2nd choice was the dozer such an awesome idea.

    all the others are incredible.. hats off to everyone, amazing job
zovex:
    i want pyroclasm's drednok b.a.t. !!
Acrizer:
    I felt bad voting... so much great work.

    I agree it's hard to pick.
Captain Carstein:
    Destro made it easy on us being able to vote for more than just one. Even though I voted for my top four, all superior paint jobs and customs, if I had to vote for just one BlindWeasel's RC HISS takes the cake for me.
Driftbot:
    i agree with xerofall's expression of = ( for not making the final cut.
    however,
    with all of these great- no, AMAZING entries, its obvious that mine are outclassed. i still had a ton of fun doing my customs, but these are simply on another level.
    now i will have to click each link and sort through them all for a good while to cast my vote(s).

    GREAT WORK EVERYONE!!!!!!
    i think we all made this very first contest a HUGE success!
    i heart the tank!!!!

    okay i cast my votes. (there, i "rocked the vote" lol)

    the water moccasin is just so clean and factory looking, i cant resist.
    the jungle hiss got my vote because its close to my desert hiss. call it a sympathy vote. ; )

    and what's this? not a single arctic hiss made the final cut?! im actually kinda shocked about that. some of them were incredible.

    GOOD LUCK!!!!
    i cant wait to see who wins!
mister-x:
    H.I.S.S. dozer422 you have my vote, early congrats to A.V.A.C awesome job on the driver, he looks good in yellow.. kind of a look at the forgotten behind the scene jobs it takes to run an evil organazation
Hannibal:
    wow, yellow is a pain, you gotta get points for that.

    But I went with the jungle hiss, looks like a unified theme.
VIPER E7:
    Congratulations to the top 8. All the tanks all have a uniqueness that make them great, but I have to go with JoeMANdan’s HISS Water Moccasin 171. Two vehicles in one is awesome. Good Luck to all!
Ev!L ErN!E:
    This was very hard to decide, but when it all came down to it I had to vote for A.V.A.C - HISS Dozer 422, this entry is by far the most original of all the entries and deserves to win, you can tell the amount of time and love that went into this custom.

    But I should also include that everyone who entered the contest did an amazing job, even if you didn't make the list, I have seen some great customs come out of this contest.

    So good luck to everyone on the list... but once again vote for A.V.A.C - HISS Dozer 422
DeeLux:
    Jungle Hiss 13 looked to be the cleanest work, got my vote.

    Hiss Dozer was my second choice.

    Awesome work by all!
