Its a VTOL (vertical take off and landing) like a AH-8 Harrier, why the engines rotate from vertical flight to hover to forward motion.

I cant wait for it to come out mainly because i always wanted the original and secondly it will look great with my tactical battle platform (especially since its one of the few vehicles that would fit on the landing pad)

It could also skim across the water.

Isn't the skyhawk on the original box art for the platform?

The way I look at it, if you have enough thrust anything will fly. After all, rockets don't have wings, right? So I figure that it can be used to skim water/snow, but then you kick in the afterburners and it can go airborne... in my reality it is nap of the earth type flying over short distances, not something that is going to reach significant altitude.

Yes, and so is the Armadillo, both of which look awesome on it.

It'll be the first 25th vehicle I buy. (Not that the FLAK isn't tempting) My first two Joe toys when I was a kid were the Shyhawk, and the ASP. I got them at the same time. I finally got some figures, shortly after that.
