SWAT humvee???? I've seen the SWAT Little Bird thats armed JUST like the military one but just comes with the SWAT guys. Cyko picked me up the ARH Aerial Rocket Helicopter but with no rockets of course but it is pretty sweet. Yes I LOVE helicopters. If I wasn't a type 1 diabetic I'd have been in the army flying them.
Another thing is IF you buy a lot of stuff get a Big Lots buyers card where when you buy 10 things there the 10th time they give you a 20% coupon.

The structure is based on a Chinese 6x6 truck which is a copy of the German Mercedes-Benz 2060. It has a crew of three men, and is fully amphibious, being driven in the water by shrouded propellers.

Russia's BTR-90 has 8 wheels.

The PTE IFV is a weak substitute, no doubt. For me, it's something unique (non-Joe or Cobra) for the Oktober Guard to drive around in. I mean, I can't just drop 'em in an AWE Striker and call it good. The FAV is a Chinese vehicle, too.

Thanks for the HT link; I'm still amazed at how people can cut off that back door so cleanly. Even with a dremel, I'm afraid of hacking it up.

There was a fellow at JoeCustoms that made a Soviet BTR out of a Joe APC that looks incredible. Helluva lot of work, too.

Be sure to check biglots. I came across tones of the Resolute Comic Packs today. I didn't need them but do remember them being almost imposible to find at retail when they came out originally. If anyone needs any let me know in the next couple days as I will be going by that store probably thursday morning. They are 10 bucks each if I remember correctly.
