Modern figures are too big to fit in the cockpit. The modern startoviper can be crammed into the drone however. That is the only fig I tried with.

I'm looking into trying to customize a different bottom piece and seating for the night raven. Will let you know how it goes. Problem is that I think I will. Have to put a bit of a bulg to the base and then fair it into the natural contours.

The GI Joe: Rise of Cobra Vipers will fit.
I had the same idea only to be completely deflated.

I have a vintage Night Raven from my childhood...and was very disappointed when my 25th style figs wouldn't fit inside the cockpit.....if there was only a way tocustomize a new cockpit (even a one seater), without wrecking the original jet....

You need really short figures. If the legs are too tall theey wont fit into the seat. If the torso is too big it knocks on the roof.
There is a trick to seating regular sized ME figs in the rear-facing seat. You have to sit thier buts on the seat and plant thier feet up above the rail a bit. for the front I moddified my cockpit to fit the strato vipers.

^ yeah man, your welcome.
The scout jet on the other hand wont fit jack. Its possible to mod it, anything can be modded but I have not gotten around to tackling that. I do recomend if you dont own one to def pick one up. Its a superb jet and the features are just out there ahead of thier time. It has alot of neat little features like working air-brakes and drop down bomb bay. Its just a superb toy.
