This one is a tough decision, as it really is small as far as troop capacity. I thought it was just too narrow for most vehicles but sadly that isn't the case. It looks like it could hold maybe 10 troops standing. I don't know about this one. I was all for it but now I'm kind of seeing plenty of minuses that I didn't see before. Might be a better AC-130 than a C-130, as many have suggested.

I was able to put windshield too using plastic sheet from a r/c toy car box (the green one is from clip board but a bit too thick so I abondon it after 1/2 way done) Basically you heat the plastic sheet 6" on top of the stove (wear gloves) once it's start to get soft quickly place it inside of the black window frame and press down on all areas so it will mold the contour shape of the window frame. Then mark the outline with sharpie and cut it out then super glue it in place.
It's look really cool now. In low light the windshield looks tinted and in bright light it looks clear so you can see the figure inside the cabin. I also double side tape the pilot so he is firmly held in his seat. here's pix

Got mine the other day and was able to set it all up last night. While not perfect, it has some cool features like the seats and the computer console. I agree it's not really usable as a C-130 but who cares? It still makes for a great transport. Wild Bill will be dropping Snake-Eyes off over Castle Destro very soon.

For those who complained, The problem is the rear cargo door is too narrow. An easy fix, just need to minor modification. Maybe it will be my next project. What's a popular vehicle that everyone want it to fit? I don't have any GI Joe vehicle so I need a similar one that I can eaily get at TRU cheap to test for my mod.

I bought one today after seeing it in person - much bigger than it looked. With a little more work on this plane, it could have been really epic - wider ramp, clear plastic windows, better seats, grooves in the floor to keep table and computer locked into the plane.
