Which real vehicle would you see as a Joe/Cobra?
 
I would see the V-22 Osprey

You can actually get those vehicles in semi-Joe scale from other toy lines.
Chap Mei has done both a Bradley and an Osprey, although the scale is a bit off from Joe figures for low price's sake.
BBI's new Target-exclusive line has done a Hind, although once again, the scale is off.

There's also a better-scaled Bradley from 21st Century Toys' XD line, but I don't know much about it as XD and BBI toys aren't sold in my area. There's a picture in Smalljoes' images here:

As for the Osprey, here you go:

Looking at these Russian sites, it seems to me that most of Chap Mei's exports end up in Russia.

Osprey?
 
Damn, that Osprey is sweet. A little out of scale, but cool, just the same. I'll keep my eyes out for you ToneGuns, if you'll do the same for me! And if you only run across one, don't feel guilty if you look out for #1, I won't! LOL!!

Ok I'll stay tuned. I found an A-10 from "Soldier Force IV". This Osprey is just fantastic. Chap Mei should have a online store for us.

I'm lookin' fr Chap Mei a long time, their vehicles are fantastic. The Bad Guyz collection have a Bigfood truck that would work fine with the Dreadnoks.

Yeah, I have 5 of their ch-47's chinook type choppers. I also snagged an MP van that goes well with the viper lockdown set, and I used a couple of their misc vehicles for Oktober Guard customs. They do have some neat stuff, but the BIG sets never get filtered down to my part of Southern California. When I was a kid, it seemed like all the cool stuff was in SoCal, but now that I'm living here, it seems like everything cool is back east! LOL!! Just my rotten luck!
