A few years ago my parents were moving. My mom called and asked if I wanted one of my bigger old toys. She said she thought it was the Millennium Falcon. I thought most of my stuff had been lost to too many hot summers in the attic, so I was excited to have anything.
A couple of weeks later she brought me my original Terror Drome (she is not the type to keep a mental inventory of GI Joe and Star Wars vehicles/playsets or what they look like). Apparently the reason it survived was that she had given it to a neighbor and they had returned it. It's missing the turrets, a couple of doors, and some other parts, but it is mostly intact. Due to the prices on parts I am restoring it VERY slowly. Hopefully I'll make some good headway at Toylanta and Joefest this year. |

I purchased a terrordrome a few months ago. It's a bit yellowed and has some pieces missing and broken, but I'm very happy with it. Slowly trying to find pieces to complete it. The lazy susan idea someone mentioned is a great idea. Might do that for mine as well.

I bought mine in 1986. After a year of pestering my parents for the Flagg for Christmas I set out with my grandma to Harrisburg to the Best store intent on finally getting a Flagg. But low and behold sitting on the shelf next to it was the Terror Drome. Now I had a dilemma on my hands. Get the toy I wanted most or get a base for my cobras? Alas I ended up with the Terror Drome as the joes didn’t really need to big base of operations to the cobras none. But I’m glad to say I did finally get my Flagg three or four years ago now. Paid $700 for it and only missing the mast cap and Keel Hauls pistol.

Does anyone have their Terror Drome behind glass? Mine is one of the only things in my collection that's not in a cabinet, and, given the size, a cabinet doesn't seem like it's all that feasible. I've currently got it sitting on top of a round coffee table. I think it looks cool, but idk...it drives my inner OCD up a wall for the Drome to be the *one thing* in my toyroom that's uncovered.
Any recommendations?

My uncle bought me a Terrordrome for Christmas 1986. I'll most likely be selling it this month though. My collection has gotten too big. I've got someone who's interested, so I've taken some farewell pics. Here's General Xadar meeting with Tombstone and other Cobra officials at a Terrordrome on the South Pacific.
