Transformers NEST Transport Plane idea! I bought this airplane- True Heroes AB-115 Shark from TRU- for my GI Joe display since i wanted a C-130 gunship, but while goofing off, i put a couple Deluxe class Transformers cars in it. they fit decently. The real test was taking my voyager Optimus Prime and seeing if he could fit through the rear door (like he did in the beginning of RotF) and he does. barely, but he does. The latch that holds the door in place back there makes for a nasty speed bump on the ramp, but i still like it. i know it is not a jet like in RotF/DotM, but for the price and size, it works for me. after the holidays, and if i have room, i wouldn't mind getting a second one to customize as a dedicated TF NEST playset/accessory. this one i will keep for my Joes. lol.

The TRU near me has one displayed hanging from the ceiling. It's pretty damn big. It would make for a pretty bad ass display if you hung it from the ceiling and suspended 3-4 TFs as if they were bailing out of the plane.

Thats a pretty badass plane, especially since I've been paying more attention to TF than my other stuff.
A custom paint job and maybe one of those Human Alliance figures piloting it could work. |

I bought this and had to paint it up into a Cobra Command Transport Plane. It is from the True Heroes toyline and cost $39.99 at Toys 'R Us. I just sold it for $55 shipped.

Looks nice, though at $55 shipped sounds like you lost money on the deal, bummer.

Thanks, I did lose out on Ebay auction. The supplies in paint, decals time customizing should have been worth the cost of the plane alone. Oh well, I enjoyed customizing it though.

Just got mine. I put some Star Wars cannons in place of the guns that it came with. If only I knew how to paint. I cut up a plastic bottle to make a winshield. I have to glue it to the frame now. So paint and stickers and it will be ready. I really want to get another one. Wish it was a little wider to fit atleast a VAMP in though.
