I've started working on a 3 3/4" scaled Gi Joe Train set. This is very much inspired by the prototype Hasbro made but never put into production. I think it'll be fun to make different cars for different functions. I don't plan to be faithful to the Hasbro design but will take cues from some of the cool things they did - maybe a search light? This is a pretty big project but should be a fun journey. Thanks for checking it out.

This is amazing. Truly one of my favorite creations I've seen here in years.
Maybe a passenger car with a small armory? Troop carrier. Keep us updated!

I'll be following the progress of this. It is one of the concept toys I always wished would have been made. It looks great so far. Thank you for sharing.

This is real cool! Good luck! Still think The Train would be a great Pulse exclusive. Buy a car at a time, track pieces with figures.

Very cool! I always loved that pre-production train that Hasbro never built and it looks like you are doing a great job with creating your own version! Looking forward to your final product and I also enjoy your youtube channel - great stuff!

Awesome! Will the cannon car have an ammo car behind it? Can't wait to see how the engine turns out.
