I couldn't stop myself on this one. Snagged the flash a few weeks ago and found that he had two left biceps. Since he was now 4-f why not use him for a custom.
I had this old jump in my spares bag and decided to 25th it just a tad. Added in the hose and silver detailing like the Cobra AirTrooper. I did have to cut off the RAH peg and add in a new one a little higher up made from styrene sprue. The rocket exhaust came from the Star Wars Pit of Carkoon Boba Fett. IIRC its the same part they used for this years convention Flash. Hope you like. Grand Slam from the upcoming Target Sharc will probably get similar treatment. Or maybe I should make a 25th Starduster? -Gary |

Very cool! I wish Hasbro would take a cue from Kenner and add plastic flames and explosions with some characters...Plastic flames with characters like Blowtorch, Barbeque, etc. would just add to the level of detail.
Nice job! |

Neat, you're gonna have to do the same thing to Hawk as well.
Man everytime I see a jet pack with the flame stand beneath, I can't help but wonder what fool decided that sticking the laser cord on the bottom of the pack was a great idea... |

Then Hasbro will come back and tell you that JUMP and the laser gun are experimental hardware...and that the cord is heat proof to 10 kabillion degrees...

Hasbro needs to release the JUMP system again, and a seperate more evil version for cobra command. it would be a cool troop building device!

...More evil as in painted blue with a red cobra on the launch pad surface?
Yeah, I guess that laser cord is probably some magic "adaptanium" alloy capable of withstanding all types of disaster. Too bad no one ever thinks to make a tank from the stuff. Last edited by Hicks_Royel; 12-27-2007 at 12:24 AM.. |
