Dream Vehicles?
If HAsbro hired you to make vehicles for GI Joe, what would you build?
I'd have to make the A.T.V. from Issues 6&7 The L.C.T. from issue 1 A T-72 and a BM-21 The Cargo (SkyCrane) Helicopter from Yearbook #2 I think what the Joes need more than anything is a LCU (Landing Craft, Utility) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landing_Craft_Utility "To Project Military Power from the Sea" ;) Something to run right along side the USS Flagg and dump troops and vehicles on Cobra from the beach! |
A huge floating LCU would rule. :eek:
|
Frank, if ou're referring to the OG's ATV from issues 6&7, Lanard make a reasonable approximation with their six wheel ATV. I use one for my OG figures. Other than that, all of the above plus the huge Cobra chopper that was prevalent in the early issues of the Marvel run. I would also love a Cobra APC that could carry as many troops as the Joe APC. :)

The Cobra head transport plane from the cartoon!! You know, the one that first appeared in the Revenge of Cobra: http://joeguide.com/summaries/the_w...ages/twd043.jpg
It would be Flagg-sized, big enough to carry some smaller Cobra aircraft within. Man, that thing would be sooooo cool!! |
I would remake the skystriker to something much better. Maybe turn it into an F-35 or F-22.
|
I'd make a 1:18 Plymouth Grand Voyager.
No, really. I love those minivans! I learned to drive in one, and I think it'd be excellent to be able to use one for my dios. :D |
Air - I would ask for a MV-22 Osprey for Joes. A SU-35 for COBRA.
Sea - I would go with a CB-90H for Joes. A Scorpéne Class sub for COBRA. Land - BMD-2 APC for Oktober Guard. For COBRA they are in a need for a ATV, like the last one that Corps released. |
The Cobra transport copter that showed up throughout the Marvel run -- that's up there alongside the likes of Billy, General Rey and Dr. Venom for impact without a toy -- and one with a detachable pod to carry a bunch of troops or a Ferret or the like would fill a gaping hole in the Cobra forces that's been there for about 20 years!

F-15 gets my vote. we've had just about every otheer american war plane thus far.
|
I'm with Stormer, I always wanted one of those super cool transport copters. It was way cool and a fleet of them would be superb. And if they could pick up Hiss Tanks or even the Paralyzers (I guess) that would be neat as well.
