Joe Pursuit of Cobra bravo vehicles with their respective drivers:- H.I.S.S. Tank with updated H.I.S.S. Driver
- G.I. Joe ground vehicle(speculated to be an all new VAMP with Clutch)!
Confirmation on the latter vehicle is pending, but if anything, as evidenced by this thread, it's one of the sleeper hits of the Pursuit of Cobra line! Click on the title bar to see more!

I think the holes on the "doors" beside each seat are for backpack pegs- to hang that passenger's backpack like we do with external stowage.
if that is the case, I am impressed with Hasbro's inventiveness in that respect. I may get one of these now! DrNightmare: I'm not getting the HISS tanks anymore, it's ugly :[
That jeep-thing is cool though
Wait, does the tank lock down or is it always in that sprung-up position? green_shirt: I'm not one who's big on vehicles, they just take up to much space. That being said I really want a handful of those vamps. Gotta make few different camo mods and see if I can cut up a small RC car to make a RC vamp. How cool would that be? Give it some LED lights and chase the cat around with it. I know the cat just can't wait. CG82: I think the Joe's and Cobra's will be chasing Dinos around soon..
THe Jeep is neat. The HISS will grow on me but its too under armmed and wouldve preferred the RESOLUTE version dammit. ShockVal: Nice pics Shin, thanks. That Vamp remake is very cool. The HISS looks a little odd to me. I like the top, but the way it sets on the tracks seems off. I would like to see that top a little closer to the tracks. Nemesis*Prime: The more I see of the HISS VII the more it grows on me. RayH: Now were talking, man I think that new vamp may just be one of the best Joe Vehicles ever, It's just so off the charts. I've always felt hasbro's new vehicle sculpts were weak, but stuff like this just just kills that. The vehicle driver looks realy well done as well, I'm anxious to see it painted.
Hiss as well, still like it but weve seen it many times.
I'm so insanley tired of waiting for POC now, Usually I'm excited about stuff, but I'm in no huge overwhelming rush to get it. But now with POC it's killing me, not having this stuff.
but not enough to buy it on ebay ;-p mattymatt: i love the new vamp ill buy several BvH: Being Bravo-class vehicles, I"m not sure I would pay $25 for a vamp or a hiss tank. The 25th VAMP and HISS would probably be comparable in size and were in the $16 range. I'd guess it would have to be a lot more "awesome" for me to consider it at the projected price point. samantha: I really like both but the Hiss Tank is a must for me. JokerFC: I really dig both of these.......Ill score them both I think MTN: I definitely need that VAMP. It looks really good. Unclassified: i would like to see these finished in person before i decide. so far they look good though. the hiss though, in battle i forsee that thing getting demolished. aim at the tracks and it's done..

Both these vehicles look cool, but are people gonna flip out if it's called the "Hammer" instead of the "VAMP?" (I kid...mostly). 1SGHauser: Yeah, these two will make it into the collection. I rarely collect vehicles, but both of these require purchasing. M. Aster Karver: HISS rules the day. The VAMP looks nice, but it's still too blah for me. Angry.Android: Ok, wow. I have to get that Vamp/jeep/whatever. Definitely need a few of those. The HISS i am on the fence about, like others said, if it has a "low profile" mode then i may get a couple, maybe more depending on how my vintage hiss liquidation goes. But make no mistake, i am very hyped about the future of joe vehicles! I am curious what that hollow cavity under the rear deck and corresponding hatch is for. Firebomber8: Im thinking that the Hiss locks down closer to the treads if thats the case then it is cool I will just never pop it up, and it will look cool fighting along side my Cobra Armor Div. But if that thing sits that high up I may not buy it unless I want to try customizing it to sit lower. In conclusion I only like the Hiss if its lower. macca glenlivet: That Vamp/Jeep is probably Hasbro best effort as far as vehicle's are concerned since 2003 when they released things like the Patriot Grizzly tank , the Split Fire , Ringneck , Treadfire and Venom cycle IMHO (the Steel Crusher was also good from the ROC line) . The Hiss tank I have to see more of it but that Vamp/Jeep is looking really sweet Jmacq1: Quote:

Scroll down on that page and you'll see some pics of the new HISS in the "lowered" position. jeremywatts: The HISS looks like the ROC Gunship on treads. Guess they had to do something with all of those excess gunships. Ixz72: I love the fact that Hasbro is updating the look of classic vehicles (namely the VAMP, HISS and before that the Snow Cat and the Polar Battle Bear [or whatever they call it now]). Both vehicles shown have a lot of potential for collectors (as far as details and customization) and a lot of playability for kids. LG: That VAMP is where it's at. This is the kind of update I like, hopefully this starts a new trend for cool vehicles. tycondrius: the Hiss is all I want . I did ask about the price for the proto but I may wait as its a little more then I can afford sigh. plus I'd preffer a painted version. not to big on prototypes shlappyguy: Can't wait for that VAMP. Batmandk02: Oh good lord! Why didn't they just make these vehicles for the Terminator movies because these damn things don't belong in my Joe Verse! I may get em when they go on clearance but those things are about ugly and just plain out Terminator vehicles. Flint071: Damn - just when I think that I am not going to collect any more vehicles they actually put something out that's decent looking.
Will have to wait until the final product is on the shelves to be sure - but there is a good change I'll be getting multiples of both. JohnnyAngel77: That new VAMP looks to be in much better scale with the figures than the retooled 25th vehicles were. Awesome. JoeMama: no no no no no! what is that neon green plastic undercarriage / axle on the new VAMP? GET RID OF IT! NONE OF THAT!
This is a potentially AWESOME looking vehicle, don't ruin it with neon coloring & Spring Loaded non-sense!
Don't do it Hasbro, don't jump!
Put down the spring-firing gun!
Step away from the neon paint ap's!
Both look overfilled with win, dipped in excellence.
Here's to hoping for these in early 2010. steve2477: That new Vamp is awesome, i'd like a few of them for my Joes. Troynos: I love the new VAMP, it's awesome.
The HISS is pretty sweet too. tycondrius: hands up who thinks that Vamp maybe for the JP line if its not on the cards for the current POC line-up ? vengecore: That's the Resolute Hisstank right!? Certainly looks similar to the ones at the end of the flick. tycondrius: its not quite the reso hiss. its similar in design. but its not the same tank.. Quote:

IceWolf: The Vamp is a WIN! Hiss Tank ehh not so much! felks22us: Nice i cant wait to get this Vehicles , the Vamp and the HISS Tank for sure i cant wait , might get two of both . COBRACOLLECTOR: These both look great I'm love with the new Hiss I need that baby for sure
and I love jeeps so that Vamps a must
I'm the most excited about these 2 items the most from the ROC/POC Line PitViper: Vamp looks A+ but I'm not as excited to own it as I am that HISS and the updated driver, which isnt all that updated...and quite frankly thats why I dig him so much.
I look forward to seeing that tank complete and decaled.
It is clear POC is on track to Joe greatness...everything that has been previewed here has been A+ stad: Quote:

The cobra helicopter-with-tank treads: hell no! GI abe444: Love them Both !! The Vamp looks Kind of like a MRAP lol A.V.A.C.: both are awesome. i will be buying a lot of the hisstanks. i'm gonna need a lot more spray paint here soon. ceraurus: Great looking vehicles. I'm less sold on the HISS, but I'm sure I'll get at least one. Freedom: The Joes should have been driving this vehicle through the city streets of Paris instead of that Rent-A-Van.
The VAMP/Desert Fox/Hammer is sweet.
The HISS is cool except for the fact that it appears to only fit one figure. Does one fit in the turret? | All times are GMT -4. The time now is 02:39 AM. | | Cool Stuff | | |
