I just like the way the details make them look more realistic. And since I don't "play" with them like I did as a kid(outside, dirt, banging around, rock chips, etc.) the details holdup. I wish Hasbro would put more effort and detail into some of their items but I also understand that it would be really hard for them to mass produce these items if they had more detailling on them too. My biggest complaint against Hasbro is that I have gotten more than a fair percentage of figures with really bad paint apps or CGs with crooked shoulder pads, etc. The Flight Pod started out as an extra Target exclusive UBP Cobra Commander Flight Pod taht was lying around and I liked your idea of a Crimson Flight Pod so that's how this one started. I really can't wait to get my jets and take them all appart and start on them! I don't know if I'm going to redo the Rattlers just yet though. I kind of would like to get around 6-10 of them and leave them as the original blue Cobra versions for my Springfield base dio I'm working on, but not totally sure yet, I might get the urge to do 1 of them into a CG Rattler.
