first of all i have not been collecting the roc line. but i am thinking of troop building these. but i am waiting for them to go on clearance. just wanted to know if these vehicles mess well with the 25th figs. meaning are they to modern looking for the 80's style joes . for those of you that have them already. if so i am thinking of buying 2 night ravens , three dragonhawks, and 3 cobra hydras.

So far, have to agree.
Counterpoint is, the Nightraven, though 1/2 the size of the original is the closest to the ARAH line in style. still, get the D-Hawk.

I only collect Cobra stuff, and I didn't like the new Night Raven, so I just have a Crimson Hydra.
I like it, and I think it fits with the 25th stuff just fine. Cool pilot as well! |

Here is the deal: a few weeks ago when K-mart had their Night Raven for $30, I would say get the Night Raven. It has more features, is larger, and is a nice homage to the original (although it certainly has flaws!). If you find one on sale, do not hesitate but get it. But at full price, all things being equal, I would get the helicopter. The Dragonhawk has lots of cool features and doesn't take up as much space. It is certainly too expensive, but it is what it is.

i agree, get the dragonhawk, i picked one up the other day and i am very pleased with it, the price, well, thats another thing, but, cant change that. i also have 2 hydra's, i had to repaint them, the stock color make the toy look cheap, but a nice coat of red give the toy some "weight" if you know what i mean. the ice dagger, well, that is now in pieces on my bench awaiting some "upgrades", and the steel crusher, i wanted this very bad when it came out, it has some cool features, but overall i am disappointed with it. but mostly i agree with everyone else in regards to the night raven, unless thing goes on SALE, i will not be buying it. its too small for what it is supposed to be, and the shotgun action thing i think is dumb.

You need to be able to find 'em befor eyou troop build 'em, :P
Good luck on that. I only ever saw one Dragonhawk in the wild, and like a fool I let it go. Crimson Hydra is a terrible looking imho, I'm liking the gunship better, but you could honestly do worse than the new Night Raven. |
