Hey all.
I recall a few years back I found a website for a guy who was a huge Star Wars fan who didn't like the scaling problems between the figure and vehicles, so he took to making his own vehicles for his collection to the 3.75' scale. I was just wondering how many, if any, have done the same for their Joe collections, particularly with some of the larger vehicles like the Defiant or Skystriker, or some of the stuff seen in DDP's comic run. Any web sites, blueprints, etc that anyone would like to share? |

i know not too long ago a tanker made that resolute phantom which was awesome, im not sure if he had to customize the cockpit or not to make the modern era figs fit but i know there are members of the tank who have done it. not sure about any specific sites though. you could check the customs thread out and im sure there wil be some good stuff in there.

The most I've done, vehicle wise, is make the cockpit of the Sigma Six 2.5" Iron Hammer Mech fit ARAH and 25th Joes:
I also made a Hiss Tank into a Mech: |
