The Cobra Sandstorm is the newest and fastest version of the HISS Tank. This Half-Track version has a much lower profile and can easily handle any terrain although it's mostly used in Desert warfare and on the beaches of Cobra Island. The rear cannons can be fired from inside the cabin or from inside the tanks body. Making it easily operation with only one Cobra troop. The Sandstorm features tinted shatter proof glass to keep the glare and heat away from the driver.as well as land mine detectors. Cobra has plans to mass produce these vehicle to replace the aging Hiss Tanks.
I had this idea in my head for such a long time. It's a Snow Cat front half joined to the Hiss rear tank body. I used plastic to build up the middle and join the two halves together. I also made the front and rear side steps and a small shield to protect the soldier a bit better in the turret. I also made it so the figure can sit down instead of stand. I spray tinted the cabin glass to give it a more Cobra Look. Total Cost of build Snow Cat 2.00 Hiss Tank 5.00 Stickers 8.00 Paint 5.00 Total 20.00

Very nice! The Cat and Hiss have been melded together to form a great half-track! Seamless mash-up job, bro!

Excellent work! The pieces used flow so seamlessly together that it looks like it was factory made.
