I just rolled out with two new editions to my Cobra armored division. They are both modified Chap Mei vehicles. The first is an armored car that I have yet to name- perfect for battlefield and urban combat alike. I'd love to know what you think

The second one is called the Cobra Scarab tank and it is based on the real life German "Weisel". I'm really happy with this one and I'd love some feedback.

Really great job! I have to ask - what are the specific names of those vehicles (if you can recall)? And where do you find them? I have such a hard time finding any Lanard or Chap Mei vehicles. Even on eBay, there isn't a lot. Mostly figures.

I don't think the vehicles have specific names. You just have to watch out for them. I searched for the armored car forever. I finally found one on ebay- it was incomplete and was featured with a few figures that I had no interest in and it cost me $40.00 plus shipping. The smaller tank was purchased at Rite Aid pharmacy at Christmans time for about $5.00.
Just keep your eyes open. Check E- bay regularly as well as local pharmacy's and discount/ outlet stores. You never know where they're going to turn up or under what label. Toys r us has them in he same aisle as GI Joe and under the animal planet/ dinosaur valley label in the learning toys section. Sometimes you'll have to pick up figures and accessories that your not interested in to get apiece that you want. Maaybe a Stegosaurus to get a cool jeep... but the prices at retail are usually very reasonable for what you get.
There are sets I would give my left arm for, that I can just never get my hands on. The armored personell carrier is AMAZING and I would love it for my Cobara army. There is a missile carrier to die for that make's the GI Joe Thunderclap (I think that's what you call that thing) look like a tinker toy.
I just keep my eyes open and pick up what I can when I can. I'm always searching flea markets and the like for little treasures. You never know when a Chap Mei is going to turn Up!
