Hey Gang,
I have been seriously considering picking up some vintage vehicles, and I'm wondering which vehicles/aircraft/seacraft/playsets are able to accomodate both vintage O-ringers and ME figures? Specifically, I am wondering about the following: GIJoe Tomahawk, Cobra ASP, Cobra Mamba, Cobra Stun & Cobra Moray. Any advice and/or knowledge you can pass on to me about ANY vehicle, etc (especially those I mentioned) would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance, SW

Thanks Vanguard! So the Tomahawk & Moray/Hydrofoil are compatible, but the ASP, Mamba & Stun are not. Too bad...

I have the Mamba and a Stun and I don't see why you can't put ME figures in them. I don't even have O-ring Joes, but I do have those vehicles and 25th Joes. Foot pegs are the only thing they don't fit.

That list doesn't seem to be complete. Not every ME figure will fit, but the 25th/ME Cobra Troopers and Officers do fit in the ASP. And the Stun fits 25th/ME figures just fine. The Stinger/Vamp and Mark II will fit them too, only it takes a little bit of effort and if it's the earlier Troopers/Officers they won't fit because of the waist not allowing the legs to bend far enough to sit down. It basicly comes down to the figure, some do and some don't depending on thier range of movement. Sadly with out mods the 25th five pack Stinger Driver won't fit in the old Stinger.
oh btw, Night Raven. ME figs will fit in the drone but not in the Raven it self. Last edited by Trigue; 10-20-2012 at 12:03 AM.. |

They fit in the Mamba cockpit, you just need to bend the knees.

The Conquest X-30 can fit them in. Old school Rattler cannot, the only Rattler mold that can is the 25th Target one and its Tiger Rat repaint. The Dragonfly can carry modern figures but you need a smaller figure in front like a female or Sandstorm from ROC.

Thanks gang!
I have my old 1986 Night Raven (one of the few vehicles I kept from the 80's). A modded cockpit could fit 1 25th fig, and the drone fit one too. I bought both TF Rattler & PP Conquest from Zellers (Target) back in 2009. They are both great purchases! I had a chance to buy a complete Stun in very good condition for $20 about 10 years ago at a flea market and passed on it.....definitely a regret. So, it sounds like all the vintage vehicle sets I want should be able to accomodate most 25th/ME figs then: the ASP, Mamba, Moray, Stun & Tomahawk. Now to acquire them, one by one......
