on yojoe.com I seen the preview for the 2008 Rattler, just tried to snag one up on ebay, still in box, now it shows that it has vTol, but does the vtol accually mean something on the Rattler or is it just for storage on them, I know in real life, the Cobra Rattler to my best of knowledge isnt Vtol and that the wings foliate like that to transport them in aircraft overseas, so is it really a vTol like toy or something of real nature? tho the toy is really neat, dont touch the wings Cobra Commander they are sharp

I think I had nearly 900 red and 400 blue Rattlers, bought or built them shortly after the Gulf, alot of people wanted alot of bombs to be dropped on Sierra Leone

Well the real A-10 does not have engines in its wings. Real aircraft with folding wings also usually have the wings fold up or backwards to make the aircraft small enough to fit on a ship. The rattlers wings rotate up so that the wing mounted engines can lift the aircraft into the sky. The vtol capability is just for the cartoons and comics, and doesn't really directly correlate to any real production aircraft.

well yah of course, A-10 in real life doesnt have intercontinetal capabilities does it, I know in a old game, Soviet Strike or Nuclear Strike for playstation, there was a mythical prototype vtol A-10 in the game, alonside a harrier, but im talking the Cobra Rattlers wings look fold up for transport
