A member over at JC got the jet and he says 25th Ace won't fit. Can barely get a ARAH figure to fit inside.

Is this really by PTE. Their stuff is usually not to scale and out of proportion. Like the f18 cockpit is very big and bulbous looking. Big enough for 2 figures. The f22 look very accurate and not funky looking. Could this be from another company? The figure included seem to suggest so.

Plus, their F/A-18 was designed 5 years ago, the F-22 out now is similar in construction and detail to the PTE A-10 released last year. I have a feeling it will take minimal modification to the interior cockpit to enable a 25th figure to sit in. I am determined to make it work! Plus.... if AVAC can get in there...maybe SRO wave 2 Ace can fit in there too...... |

The F-18 was made to have 2 figures in the cockpit.
I don't think it is more bulbous than the Thunderwing was or any of those Spytroops era planes. Plus Joecustoms Spartan never said he couldn't get Ace to fit just that it was a tight fit.

it'll probably fit. or else i'll make Ace fit. it hasn't stop any collector from modifying the cockpit and all. hey i had a slight problem with WW when i put him on the A-10. but a little bit of magic, he got in there. now somebody paint it on Silver and slap some Decepticon decals.... and you got? It's Starscreammmm!!!

Just learned from the joecustoms thread that the new F-22 is BIGGER THAN THE G.I. JOE THUNDERWING AND can fit 25th anniversary Ace inside easily!

I just bought one the these today, and I was able to get my 25th Ace in the cockpit without too much trouble. Now granted he didn't have his helmet on, but with some minor modifications to the F-22 I think Ace will fit just fine. I'm going to be customizing mine anyways into a new XF-22 Skystriker. Finally 25th Ace will have a worthy aircraft to pilot.

Alright boys, I got mine, shoved 25th ace with a pilot helmet on inside the toy and there is enough room for him! Looks great! Only thing I don't like, is that the vertical stabilizers are not angled outwards enough. Otherwise, it is actually by Motormax Toys, could be in coordination with M & C Toy Centre/PTE, as the construction is eerily similar. I read that the plane is either 1/32 scale, or pretty close, which is what the Skystriker was back in the day too.
This is a great deal better than the Thunderwing, which I also have. Motormax even molded in interior details, such as the interior of the thrust vectoring nozzles! I honestly did not see that coming. It is also more accurate than the Thunderwing, it literally makes the Thunderwing look like a kids toy, more than it already does. It is also cheaper, it is only $24.99. For the past few months I have heard fans clamor for a F-22 for their joes, now we have one! |
