I have to put some toys in storage. I would rather sell the Cobra Blackhawk instead of storing it. I will take $160 and I will ship in the US for free. I will not ship outside of US.

Or the two hands holding it in "midflight"...

Pretty awesome though, you should consider doing the same to the Apache.

While it is a great customizing job, just phenomenal. I think Cobra vehicles should be unique and really technologically advanced.

As for Joes...I really dont have a problem with them having regular military equipment and some pretty advanced stuff working together.

But overall, great stuff!

Other than sticking some Cobra insignia stickers on it, what exactly was done to customize it?

He painted the entire thing blue before he placed the decals on. To get a paint job to look nice and even like that takes some work.

Great work chopsooie.

I wonder if the 25th had any trouble sitting in the cockpit?If not,that just bumped the cool factor up.I can't stop staring at the pics,that thing is hella sweet!!

Thanks alot for putting me on the board. The helicopter took me about a day to make. Thanks a lot for the replies. I did not mean to steal Mindbenders glory, but his stuff does looks nice and I might make a Cobra hummer. In the helicopter you can put the 25th figures in the cockpit, but not so well in the back, but the old figures fit nice though.

I concur. The best part is the Cobra sig on the bottom. I can see people running in fear as this chopper flies by.

both those copters rock, all the more sad when the mad avac bomber carpet bombs and strafes the entire area with lead as that chopper lands on the battlefield amongst foes. gotta break a few eggs to make an omelete, as we say. we were never taught to lead, only spread lead. HaiL CoBRa!!!

I believe they stopped making them. The vendors online have all stopped carrying them and they seem to have completely disappear shortly after these 25ths came out.

put up a post on the extensive enterprises thread. That's how I got mine.

I'm turning mine into a Tomahawk

Dude that'd be awesome! You're going to mod it into a Chinhook? Or you're going to give it the same paint scheme as the Tomahawk?

That, the Dragonfly, and the Whale have to be my absolute Joe favorites.

GI Guppy the third
05-25-2008, 05:18 PM
I'm not going to mod it into a chinook as the original Tomahawk actually had a body that looked closer to a blackhawk. I know purists may scoff at the lack of a second rotar but I thought that second rotar on the original looked stupid since the giant engine was directly under the front rotar, and there was nothing really under the second. I am making some changes though, like some gun mounts and an underneath gun like the original. I'm just having problems deciding where to put the gun mounts because typically on a blackhawk they're set by the sliding window by the cockpit and the BBI's wings are in the way for this. I might add the larger white bombs and there's a perfect spot to add the small white ones. I even saw a picture of a black hawk carrying missiles/bombs that look similar to the tomahawk's smaller ones on it's wings.

I just hope it turns out as well as this one. Over at the Inner Sanctum, he's selling his that looks similar to this as well but I would argue it's not as cool because it's not the BBI Blackhawk which is closer to scale and has a lot more to it.

I'd definately like to see it when you're finished. Sounds cool.

Cool Bluehawk!....Yet Cobra would really by Russian aircraft. Which means no hummers, Hueyys or Blackhawks.
Great Paint Job.

why would they buy Russian exclusively? They want to dominate the world, not just the U.S.. They would buy whatever they could of off the black market, or just get stuff from Destro. I see no reason why they wouldn't have any number of varying countries weapons and armor.

The same reason all terrorists buy Russian. The Russians need the money. Also easier to get.
