Just picked one up off eBay ... What a GREAT lil mean helicopter. If I missed it I'm sorry, but I don't hear a lot about it. Nice air support for my Joes. Thinking about picking up another and adding benches to the sides to carry a few joes into battle, like they use to do with real world little birds. Again great little chopper..

Hear hear. The Locust served my Joes well during all of my childhood! Like much of the '90s Joe stuff, this is an underrated gem.

We're talking about that little helicopter that originally came with the General, or the Dragonfly repaint?
I loved both. Sadly, my Locust (General one) had really loose guns. Luckily I was able to take it apart and add some tape to make the guns tighter.

I will agree. I remember getting the single release when I was a kid and loved it. I plan to pick up that version at some point to accompany the one on my general.

This is one of the vehicles that came out after I had stopped buying them, that I was really tempted to get. Still am. I wouldn't mind seeing one in black as a new Fang.
