Check Out Cobra Commander’s Sweet New Ride

More accurate outfits and actual weaponry aren’t the only additions to G.I. Joe: Retaliation. Looks like there’ll be a few toy-inspired vehicles making their appearance in the movie too, like the HISS Tank above (as revealed by Cobra Special Forces). It’s not 100% accurate to the original toy, but it’s a damn sight better than the white Budget rental van Joe drove around Paris in in Rise of Cobra, so I’m digging it immensely. (Via ToyNewsI)
