And to be honest what I paid for it, was a steal!! I had never seen such a quality piece in a buy it now on eBay under 400 bucks and this one went way lower than that....
So that's why I decided to share it with you guys, now I need to figure out how to store it for a while....

Awesome! I loved this as a kid. It was my first actual vehicle. I never threw mine because I wanted it to stay perfect. Lost it along time ago.

I loved seeing them in the cartoons as a child.
Here's my version of them: Made from sturdy material, they are more durable than the original ones. Smaller, they are easier to display any 3 3/4 or 4 inch figue. If you are interested, please message me.

What I did was put my falcon and viper glider set-up in shadow boxes from michaels craft store. I used clear tacks to hold everything in place....

Great score! They are so hard to find in great shape and yours looks fantastic. Do you have a matching Viper?
The gliders were one of the very few 82-84 toys that I never had as a kid. I remember seeing them in the store but for whatever reason decided not to buy them. Eventually a neighbor friend had them and I even back then I was shocked at how flimsy they were and they didn't fly very far. Now I have them both, but they are a little beat up
