It's roomy enough inside to work with and if I screw it up, I'm out the cost of lunch for my family at Whataburger. If I screw up the Tomahawk, replacement parts are much harder to come by. I have two of them, so there are options.

OK, I feel I'm in the presence of experts. What is the best sanding primer for Joe toys?

Have you ever checked out Joe Customs? Lots of guys on this site do their own customs, but that site is dedicated to making customs. They can help with any technical needs and maybe give you some inspiration for what to do with your Tomahawk.

That Chinook from TRU is awesome, lots of guys on this site have used it in pictures. Plus it's big enough you can put a VAMP or AWE Striker in the back.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.
