During the Yo Joe! June fanstream, Hasbro Pulse shared news of the newest addition to the Classified Series that features the HISS Tank.
Here is the rundown of the HISS Tank and accessories:
Fans can fund the new project for $299.00 USD with 8,000 backers needed to fund the project. The HasLab page featuring Destro’s Journal, which includes all the details around the new H.I.S.S. tank can be found here.
Key features for the H.I.S.S. Tank includes:
- Battery-Powered Interior and Exterior LED lighting: Includes vision lights, interior cockpit heads-up display, headlights, fog lights, rear Cobra convoy lights and the Cobra Insignia Beacon.

- Elaborately-detailed command cockpit interior: The Cobra H.I.S.S. Driver Action Figure sits buckled with a 5-point harness adorned with Cobra logo before an illuminated control panel. You can pose the figure operating the articulated joystick and throttle controls while targeting Joe combatants.
- “Gull-wing” Canopy: The vehicle comes with features “gull wing” functioning doors with independent right and left sides that lift from center hinges allowing the Driver to enter from either side of the H.I.S.S.
- Rear Cargo Bay: The rear personnel platform provides standing room for additional troops who can be posed holding the functional handrails. Below that is a retractable tow hitch on the rear of the vehicle. The center of the personnel platform flips up allowing the rear cargo door to drop. That reveals an illuminated troop transport cargo space. Inside is a jump seat and a weapon accessory storage rack.

- Removable armor plating skirt: The Cobra H.I.S.S. comes with a removable armor plating skirt detail with reactive armor to provide extra protection for the road wheels
- Extendable cockpit boarding ladders: Flip-down boarding ladders descend from each side of the H.I.S.S. granting the Driver easier access to the cockpit
