Default 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.

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.

Not that ATV. I know what you're talking about I have 3 of those 6x6 ATV's and they ROCK!! I mean the big Silver ATV that the Joes put together and loaded the Plane on. Someone did a cool custom of one a year or so ago at one of the conventions!
