I mean seriously, take a look at the two (which maybe I'll do tonight if I remember) side by side. The Joe Glider is about twice as long, as more "girth" to it, better detailed. The CLAW.. not so much..

I originally was going to pass on this, but I think I will get some just for the CLAW. I'm pitching the figures though, hate the colors, and I don't like it when they put pilots of other ships with gliders, the AVAC Pilot pilots the Firebat, end of story.
I think this Black CLAW will look pretty cool on a Night Watch Trooper or a Python Officer. |

The colors of the AVAC didn't do it for me if he looke dmore metlaic like he does on his card art maybe, the missiles are also way to damned big no matter how many the put in the box, might as well given the missiles form the X-30 LOL. The small ones is all it should ever have as the original had those. It is nothing more than justa back pack like Zartan's swamp skier was just a gimick. The glider that came with Grand Slam should have been the new Cobra CLAW 2 paintd black and given better stickers with a Black and red painted AVAC with a new head or even a Paraviper like they currenlty have, would looked better inmop.
Not going to get this even if it was a 1.99 at a thrift store.

I picked up 5 today. They are not perfect but I like the Claws. They will look great in a diorama. Just my opinion.

I kinda like.. Atleast its self propelled with engines on the side to push the metal wing through the air. The Joe Glider looks like a flying brick with a huge metal wing and a vulcan cannon on there. Gliders are supposed to be lightweight.

I have not bought a Firebat yet due to the AVAC being crap. There is one in a damaged box collecting dust at the K-Mart near me, but I keep passing it over when I look at the figure. Is the Firebat worth $16.99 loose? |

I was thinking about buying this thing for the missiles. The Ghost Hawk needed a few more than the ones that came with it. I like the color scheme (green and black), but I agree with the assessment of the figure and the vehicle/accessory.

If only the weapons weren't funky colors I'd have used them for spares. No such luck, though.
