Vehicles Cobra C-788 Air Transport

46 Zone · 11-18-2018, 03:44 AM

So I got one of those Batman Flying Fortresses, took out the inside stuff, put in a floor, added stickers and a new cockpit, and now I have an added air assault vehicle!!!

I used 1/8" plywood for the floor. Styreen was too flimsy.

I used the cockpit from the Cobra Mech suit.

Cargo hold

There is a cargo door in the back to drop a Zombie Bomb!!!

The front opens up to show a front control panel.

nice job! like it better with the floor. I been passing on these as I just don't think it fits in my joeverse but I like what everyone is doing with them.

is there room in the cockpit for two people if like the cockpit was cut and chopped to fit?

Yes. You could put 25th stinger seats in if you cut away the Batman joysticks.

Dead sexy! I do have to say, the side fold out gun turrets covers could be painted red. They are already shaped like Cobras. It is almost like the Mattel designer is a Joe fan...

Great custom work.

Pretty slick! Maybe someone can mold a giant serpent head to mount on the front like that big air transport they had in the movie!

I know!!! I was searching Amazon for something like that. I even though of putting the Cobra music box front from the 2008 five pack, but it looked too much like a sticker. I may consider getting this set and repainting and modding the Cobra microphone on the left. I don't know if it would work though. Anyone want an Imaginext set without a microphone?

that's sweet. wish i had the skill for that cause i really wanted to get that vehicle but the "base" feature was lame
