NEWS: Cobra HISS Attack Scout Images and Review


We told you yesterday about the not-yet-released-GI Joe Cycle Armor with Ashiko. Now we've news of the vehicle's Wave-mate, the HISS Attack Scout.

Although - like the Cycle Armor and Ashiko set - the HISS Attack Scout has been widely available in Asia for some time, there are currently no details of when (or even if) this vehicle will be released in the US. Rumours abound of this Wave being an online exclusive and it's also been suggested that the toys may be released to overstock outlet stores such as Ross Dress for Less and Gabriel Brothers, in the same way the Rise of Cobra Wave 3 Alpha Class vehicles were. At the moment this is all pure speculation, however.

Anyway, HISS Tank member FrenXy managed to grab the Alpha Class HISS Attack Scout and was kind enough to share some images of (and thoughts about) the vehicle. It certainly looks interesting but until I see it in person, I'm not convinced enough to make a purchase, especially given that - if the rumours are to be believed - this vehicle could be available soon at a knockdown price.

More when we get it.

  1. I'm not impressed. I think they could have made this so much better

  2. I think it looks unfinished. A canopy cover or even rollcage over the pilot's position would have been an improvement.
