So right both of you are!

That tank is awesome. The G.I. Joe Collectors' Club did release it a couple years earlier in 2014 as a Cobra Septic HISS Tank MK II, but the colors used for the 2016 San Diego Comic Con box set made it so much better.

While I have never liked Transformers, it was easy to ignore the Soundwave character aspect and just treat the toy for what it really was... a spectacular H.I.S.S. tank!

Other than those, the second edition of the HISS Tank would be great.I loved the original HISS,but I kind of pushed it aside when I got the HISS 2, because it was such a great,improved upgrade. I wouldn't complain were I to see a Rattler,Skyhawk,Killer WHALE,or Night Raven.

I'd definitely be interested in all of these. A boxed set of Zartan with 1) a decent color changing feature 2) an upgraded, correctly sized Swamp Skier and) in retro ARAH packaging...would be amazing.

Would also get the Dreadnok Thunder machine; never had the vintage version.

Never got the HISS II (had stopped collecting before it first came out). However, I really like the way this vehicle looks; both sleek & deadly - the dark gray & red colors really work well together. I agree that it's superior to the first HISS - even though that is obviously more iconic.

Funny enough, if I had to guess,I think the HISS II might have been the last vehicle I got before I stopped collecting. I thought having the troop carrier in back was a genius addition,and showed they weren't just painting things in different colours to sell again. They were still trying to be creative at that point, before they got lazy.

The HISS II was one of my favourites and a popular vehicle during play time with my friends.

I love the HISS II and would even love it more if it was repainted black with red highlights like Oreobuilder's amazing custom.

Initially, I thought the same thing about the colour,because it would match up with the original. Then after thinking about it,I liked that they changed the colouring. It made the HISS II stand out more,and it didn't feel like they were being lazy.
