I always hated the Hiss 2's factory paint so taking inspiration from the HISS3 being a repaint of the HISS1, I decided to have a go at making a HISS2 into a HISS5.
I had a Hiss 2 with a broken cockpit frame, several broken tabs, and multiple missing parts. I repaired the cockpit frame with styrene sheeting. I replaced the missing side cannons with Built To Rule cannons that can swivel 360 degrees like the originals. The entire Hiss 2's frame was repainted camo black, and details were highlghted with red paint markers. Stickers came from leftover GI Joe sticker sheets and Zoid model kits. I finished it off with a chin weapon package consisting of 3 antipersonel grenade mortars and 2 laser cannons made from Zoid parts that can rotate 270 degrees and the 2 laser cannons also pivot up and down.

That is amazing. The Hiss II was one of my favorite vehicles. You improved it exponentially. The paintjob is outstanding.

The HISS II is vastly superior to the HISS in play features. My brothers and I really enjoyed the HISS II.
The black looks really good on it. Great job! |

This looks like the BAT-HISS. Needs a Batman logo and would be the accompany piece to the 66 Batmobile. Love it.

That looks like something Syd Meade would illustrate. Super cool.
The Batman Beyond HISS.

Great work, sisco. The paint details and chin gun really add to its menacing visage.

I love the default ccolors of the HISS II but I also really like what you've done. I usually don't like it when people repaint these plain black and red but you've put a fun spin on it with the raised edges being highlighted and that makes it look much better I think.
