Also, I think it was based on the skycrane, not a direct copy.
I don't think it was made into a toy because Joe wouldn't have a chance against such obscene amounts of firepower and utter coolness.
We have to be fair.

Cobra wants you! I'm looking for some ruthless Vipers to fill the ranks. Joes need not apply.
