Hi guys,
Several time I tought of getting a Mudfighter, it has a nice vintage/modern look, it's rather small and looks cool. Well almost. I hat the canopy it just kills the dam jet. Last year or so Hasbro showed concept photos of some of their toys and I saw the Mudfighter there. The concept canopy looked much better. So I'm opening the topic to see if anyone made a custom canopy for it or used one from another toy. If you did post some photos.

What Hasbro did with the 25th Skyhawk was perfect, casting a solid canopy out of clear and simply painting the frame. Would work great for the Mudfighter too, but likely too expensive a piece for an individual to cast and make any profit on.
Actually, if somebody made a mold (possibly even modified stock canopy would work) inserts could probably the vacuum molded that would simply glue to the underside of the original canopy frame. Same effect, but likely a bunch cheap to produce small scale.
