There was a larger scale STINGRAY Model kit, that could be converted to COBRA use, not sure if they still make it, but this fits into the GI JOE VERSEwith the right paint apps

As accurate as it can be, and your casting skills are awesome. I love that hair. So um, next project is the submarine? *fingers crossed*

Thanks for the comments guys.
I was originally going to use Eel shoulder pads but didn't want to buy another one just for them. I tend to try and spend as little as possible. Which is why I probably won't be buying those sub model kits. I wanted to make a custom one but don't really have the skills for vehicles as you can see http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...jimbotron.html |

I hear you there on cost, this hobby gets expensive. But I have an Idea that might work.
The royal naboo starship. Sometimes you find these for dirt cheap online or craiglist. Paint a different color rearrange the inside, paint it etc. take off the rear fins and add a couple vanes and a cheap prop system or such and it could be very convincing.

Room for Captain and crew, Recon Sub, and Diver Recovery Hatch or it could be used for boomer deployment

Or remove the front sub and place torpedo tubes there and use the section immed behind it as a torpedo ready room.
ANYONE else have any thoughts on this idea? using the starship with a few light mods as a sub. IT WOULD SIMILIAR to the other ones I had pictured also the sub from fanastic voyage. Taking off the front and the back pieces to the engine nacelles, one can place a simulated Cat drive system, similiar to the Red October

Or lose the props and use Thrust Vectoring,lol it is fantasy after all, plus it would be a easy mock up

If I can find that for a decent price, I'll have to get it. It looks like it would take minimal effort to make into a Cobra sub.
