The biggest draw back to the Retaliation Hiss is the lousy cheap plastic threads which do not stay in. The vehicle is very top heavy with the cheap lower chassis cant support well, apart from minor play or display. Do not pick up the tank by its threads.
The front nose guns are ugly cause they're cheap molded and undetailed, so what I did was hollow the barrels and inserted Saw Viper's oversized mg barrels into them. I plan on using the POC wheels/threads and this thing could really be nice. The color blue is a tad darker than some of the pictures indicate and its not bad but I wouldve liked a black colored version. The turret needed a hatch for the gunner, but without the missle the canon looks ok. The lack of up and down feature of the canon though is a drawback |

POC/renegade all the way. Nothing like working treads.

I prefer POC/30th, simply for the treads and elevating gimmick. But the hull of the Retaliation is definitely tops, with the twin gatling guns and awesome canopy.

I also dont like how its missing the rear bumper. I also wouldve prefered it had a front bumper instead of the silly front piece with the guns which kinda make it less intimidating. The front guns shouldve been mounted underneath like the POC version.

I look the looks of the Retaliation Hiss tank, but once you get it in your hands it feels cheap just like the rest of the movie line. Not to mention all the features they took out of it. If this one had come first I'd like it better, but as it stands it's just a hallow shell of the 30th/PoC tank.

The POC version is a much sturdier design.

Voted PoC/30th Hiss Tank, but wish it had clear plastic windshield windows.
