the price is steep- but what's wrong other than that? Is that a fake or something?

FAKE or remake Not 100% sure.

Um well the part where you attach the figure is real but the foam of the glider is not. Its a good copy with out the stickers as the camo looks the same. The originals were these below:

YOJOE.COM | Viper Glider

Its hard to say. I am about 50/50 remake.

the parts are real like all the plastic and the figure.but not the glider its self. Hobbie town USA has the same polystyrin if you have the right size you could make one. I was thinking about it. but I would never say they where real like this guy did!!!

About once or twice a month there is a guy selling repro gliders on ebay. I thought this thread was going to be about that at first.

Just curious has anyone bought one those reproduction gliders ? I've been tempted but they tend to get alittle expensive. Far more than I would pay for a repro and so far I haven't seen the auctions say what material they are made of either.

As for that glider listed up there that is a fake or atleast not a US released one anyhow. The old falcon/viper glides was the same color foam all the way through atleast the ones I had 20 years ago was. That one there looks to just be painted on the surface and roughly cut and maybe too thick.
