Picked up one the True Heroes “Steel Badger” vehicles at TRU this week.. as you can see, with a little TLC it’s not a bad piece... I cut off the ridiculous cannons and replaced them with the barrel from 25th Roadblock’s Ma Deuce and a Mk 19 from another Chap Mei vehicle, put some covers on the open hatches and painted her up... now all I need to find is a Sgt Slaughter head to make a driver for her...

True Heroes is a rebranding of Chap Mei and other manufacturers' lines. I imagine Chap Mei has some exclusive distribution rights agreement with TRU, but I've never seen documentation for that, and I have see Soldier Force branded toys recently in Ross and Marshal's, with proper Chap Mei logos. (Soldier Force being the Chap Mei brand that True Heroes repurposes, largely.)
I would say, and this is my strategy - If you want something, get it at liquidation when it happens. (Just leave a couple for me. :-) )

I picked up the hovercraft today. All in all a very cool vehicle. I just need to figure out a fix for the two side guns as I threw the launchers and nerf missiles into a drawer never to be seen again.
I am by no means good at customs but does anyone have any easy tips on how to mount a different gun on the sides of the hovercraft? (The hovercraft posted above is amazing and I do not have the ability to do anything like that ) I am just looking for a good lazy work around. Am also deciding on Sharc 9000 or Killer Whale decals. Thanks! |

Damn this is great! I don’t know much about these vehicles but what did this look like when you purchased it? Did you paint that green?

That's so awesome! Do the whales depth charges happen to fit in those nerf dart holders on the sides?

Thank guys. The whale is one of my all time favorite vehicles so when I found this I knew I had to have at least one to go with my pair of Vintage Whales. I have since bought a 2nd and may buy another soon.
