I made this landing craft for a contest... it is 40 inches long, 10 wide, and 10 high at the bridge. I made it from a weed whacker box I was going to throw out: After looking at it for a few moments I thought it would make a good ships' hull. My joes and their vehicles fit perfectly inside the open hull, and the front ramp can be opened or closed easily. I used ordinary spray paint to paint the ship and it can hold a lot of joes and vehicles.

thats cool. We had a WWII LST (USS LST-325) dock at Wheeling WVA and they had tours of the ship. All I could think of looking at the pics I took was that I needed to try to make one for my Joes. It will take alot of time to complete but it will be worth it. Your landing craft is very cool and since I just bought a brand new weed eater and still have the box I might just be inspired. Thanks for the pics.

That's sweet! I've been wanting to do a hydrofoil landing craft similar to the one the Joes used to invade Cobra Island in #1 of the Marvel series. But something like this might be better, and easier. Never thought of using a box. Great job!
