Being a military history aficionado, I was excited to see Build-A-Rama’s Custom Desert Hiss Tank resemble a North Africa campaign style vehicle. First, the paint scheme and weathering on this Hiss Tank makes this piece feel like a period piece from the 1940’s. I love the converted turret of the old Hiss Tank to a Trubble Bubble platform, which is a great concept! Overall, this vehicle is very well executed and would fit very well in your 1980’s or current GI Joe collection.

Custom Crimson HISS and Killer WHALE
proudpaapaa1 has allocated budget to the Crimson Guards and given them a way attack on land and sea with his
Custom Crimson Cobra HISS Tank and Killer WHALE GI Joe vehicles. What a way to upgrade Cobra’s Elite forces! The devil is in the details with this one as he has made a great color scheme and design for some classic GI Joe and Cobra figures. The blues and crimson red are in the right places on the HISS Tank and I like the upside down triangle cobra symbol on the side of the tank as it makes it look more militaristic. Take a look at the detailing below:

As for the Killer WHALE, it was captured by the Crimson Guard and redone and what a great looking vehicle this is. Again, the crimson red is the right shade and I love the choice of blue on this one. The alternating colors really accent the right pieces on the vehicle and I love the addition of the cobra symbols on the front of hovercraft:
