Since the mold was retooled significantly, I hope we see repaints in the future. I think back during 2002-05, Hasbro ran a survey at conventions asking what repaints they would like to see, I know a desert Conquest was on the pamphlet for sure, and I think a red Rattler. A red Rattler in Python Patrol camo would be awesome. Or it can be a crimson command rattler with generic cobra pilots.

I just got my rattler and X30 (i live in Europe, takes a while to get here) and i must say, the rattler is a piece of crappy workmanship.
A few complaits: * The bombs fall off by just touching it * The new soft(child proof) tips of the missiles are crap, they bend like noting. * The wing is missing HALF of it, the underpanels are gone, making the wing floppy and plain stupid looking, making the plane lighter in my eyes, not heavier. * Wild weasel can barely fit the cocpit, you need to cram him in just before the point of fracture * The landing gear on mine had allready stress marks, not even being used Once, that won't last long. As i opened the X30 first i was releaved that hasbro didn't completely ruin it or redesign it, but with the Rattler it's very different. I always wanted a blue rattler, i only gad the GIjoe vs cobra gold exclusive, which missed the second canopy, but at least it was solid. This rattler is therefor the biggest vehicule letdown so far, right before the flight pod, but as they probably laugh at Hasbro's :"Fans do buy ANYTHING!" If i had to give it a score it would het 2/10. It's a ripp off. |

It honestly sounds like yours is defective, because I have had none of the problems you mentioned and I handled mine quite extensively before, after, and during my review(I love joe/cobra planes). If yours is defective, I'm sorry to hear, that sucks man. |

Did the Rattler or Conquest come with figure stands for Slipstream and Wild Weasel? I hope I didn't lose mine. Thanks, I re-read the review and looked at yojoe but could not find the answer I was looking for.
