So I've never done an extensive re-imagining of a toy before, this was a fun experiment. I mounted a multi-missile launcher from the GI Joe HQ on top of a Cobra Septic Tank. I call it The Punisher.
I had to clip a bit out of the base for the launcher so I could reverse its position, because I wanted the base oriented backwards on the HISS (so the prongs would be at the back). It came out glossier, and generally messier, than I wanted it to. And I should have placed the stickers differently. And because the base is the ST, instead of a 25th HISS, it doesn't seem to fit the 25th figs very well -- the canopy is too low, and won't close with them in place. I'm not thrilled with the technical execution, I've done neater paint jobs, but I do think it's a neat looking final product. I wanted an absurdly disproportionate weapon to go with the aggressive cockpit cover on the Septic Tank. Pics at the bottom of the thread found here: dwarvenforge.com / One last Joe post (for now...)

Think Firefly's over compensating a bit :P
That's so over the top that I like it.

That's a pretty cool monster, but I'm more impressed by how good you made those Corps vehicles look with just a good paintjob! Nice work!

Deadpool would feel at home in that tank. Since hes the kind of guy to bring a massive tank to a knife fight.

Looks good. But when I first saw the title, I was expecting a standard black Hiss Tank painted up with the Marvel Punisher's skull as a new ride for him.

You should have Frank Castle running after it, yelling, "Hey, that's my ride!"
