I should have noticed you did say "repaint".

I loved the RoC NIght Raven. My brother got it back when I was about 8 or 9 (yes I'm a RoC kid) and those missiles were absolutely dope.

I'd nearly forgotten all about that toy. (Where'd the last decade go?)

Why they always repaint some vehicles but not make new brand original ones ?

Nah. It wasn't great by any stretch, but there have been far, far worse Joe vehicles (or even Joe planes). The "action features" were relatively low-key and while it was smaller than a lot of people wanted (of course) it was still a respectable little plane. I've never regretted owning it.
I'd be willing to bet that if the OG Night Raven had never existed, the reception of the movie Night Raven would have been a lot less negative. It might not be beloved but a lot more people would probably think it was a pretty cool little plane. But a lot of people were upset/disappointed that it wasn't as worthy a successor to the original as they wanted (and that's a very valid opinion, the OG Night Raven was super-awesome). |

"Finally?"
I had already considered the Cobra air legions replete with fighter-jets that are 100% Cobra with no real-world analogs. But seriously, I understand what you mean. I thought it was an okay toy for kids, but my children didn't seem to like it. Instead, they always preferred to play with my vintage Night Raven (and I really didn't mind, but I just didn't want them to break it).

I didn't mind buying several of them at $10 each on clearance, but at regular price it was really a terrible jet.

I liked my ROC night raven (all those missiles!) but I didn't like the landing gear or the fact that it only could seat one figure. My brother and I used to just use it for strafing runs on the Joes and used Firebats more often as a regular jet.

That night raven was the best thing of the movie, modern and very high tech.
