Discussion Thoughts on a custom project...

Lord Vokk · 06-17-2012, 11:34 PM

I always wanted to get a group together and have a group custom project....

Pick a specific Joe vehicle from past that is cheap and easy to aquire. Have each member of the group aquire one of said vehicle and put their own custom spin on that the vehicle.

Then post our creations here on The Tank.

Thoughts?

This would be a nice custom contest.

I'll throw in $20 for first place if you pick the AWE Striker... that would be funny.

Also another $20 for a Ferret ATV contest.

And finally, Swampmasher!

That would be a cool contest, make the Swampmasher cool again!

I know it is not a past or present joe vehicle but,for my birthday in april I recieved the True Heroes ab-115 shark plane(it's freaking awesome btw).As I was "setting" it up I commented to my son "I wonder if anyone has tried to make a submarine from this." If not I think it could be a good project.

Similar has been done before as a 'Tank sponsored custom contest.

I think that's a really cool idea. If you do decide to set up some kind of custom contest, you should choose one of the $15 retaliation vehicles. That way it's super easy for everyone to get one, and it helps support the line. My vote would be for the Moccasin.

I support this idea and I'm in for sure if it's something like the Fangboat or the Ret AWE.

Plus everyone has at least one version of those already.

I had great fun when the Tank held a custom HISS Tank contest many and many ago.
