That's sweet. Do you know where that came from, or what line, or who made it? I'd been contemplating making one of my own last night after seeing one in an old Marvel comic that had this helicopter in it. I was going to use two of the PTE knock-off Blackhawks.

I'd kind of like them to make the huge cobra transport plane. I figure the odds of Hasbro ever creating one of those is about the same as them releasing an evac heli.

It was never made into a toy because it was a comic specific invention. Hama needed a transport heli and that's what the marvel guys came up with. I had a thread a few months ago wishing someone would do a custom. The animal capture thing is close but with its tiny rotors and stumpy appearance it's a little too unrealistic looking for me. Also, I think it was based on the skycrane, not a direct copy.

I don't think it was made into a toy because Joe wouldn't have a chance against such obscene amounts of firepower and utter coolness. We have to be fair.

I think Hasbro will wait a few more years until they have peddled umpteen more garbage vehicles at the collectors and just when everyone is broke and tired out they will come out with a cool cobra transport heli. That's just how Hasbro rolls.
