Man, nothing beats the freaking Tank Car, except maybe the atv!
Good call on that Pile Driver too, what the hell is it anyway? |

I dunno, I think every year has it's clunkers, except 1982 and 1983 (too much nostalgia there to judge correctly).
1984: Swamp Skier 1985: Bomb Disposal Unit (who ever used that?), Weapon Transport 1986: Air Chariot (just not a fan), Hydro Sled (essentially a board with missiles), LCV, Swampfire 1987: All of Battle Force 2000 (cool if taken separately as some Sci-Fi concept, but they just didn't fit in with the rest of the Joes), Road Toad, POGO Ballistic Battle Ball, Mountain Climber Pack, Earth Borer, Rope Crosser and Rope Walker 1988: Battle Barge, Swampmasher (I didn't get the point of the wheels, and the color scheme? Forget it), Motorized Battle Axe (seriously - look at this one if you're not familiar with it), Minesweeper, Gyrocopter (or the L'il Fang) 1989: Triblaster, Mudfighter, ANOTHER Battle Force 2000 vehicle (Pulverizer) Past that I'm not even going to list them, as they all start looking a little silly to me. ;) (As a note - I had most of the above, even the most ridiculous ones) Mike |

I always got the impression Larry Hama liked the Vector too, cuz i think it and Maverick showed up a lot more than the rest of the team until they all got waxed. Quote:

I had the skystorm!
I'm too lazy to look right now, but I seem to recall it being based on an actual experimental aircraft. The RL aircraft didn't work, but then again the X-31 is based on an experiment that didn't pan out either. Its goal was similar to a V-22 Osprey's - to combine the helicopter's flexibilty in low-speed and vertical flight with a fixed-wing aircraft's efficiency in level flight.

but, yeah, it's still pretty silly looking. Looks like a BF2000 reject.
