Found another sealed Conquest to add to my Flagg. I'm getting pretty good at putting the stickers on.
The larger vehicles always kick my ass because the decals are more intricate and there are much more of them compared to smaller vehicles. I enjoyed building this second one. Even though I did have the Flagg when I was younger we were poor and I would never dream of having more than one of any given vehicle. So to add this second one just now was pretty neat. Also most people probably had the Skystriker's but those came out a couple years before I got into GI Joe so I was an X-30 kid.

That was one vehicle I wanted that I wasn't able to get, the Flagg just costed too much and took up too much space. That said, I can virtually smell that new plastic smell on that Conquest. SWEET! I love the Skystriker, but the Conquest was right up there too. Along with the Phantom X-19. I've always loved Joe aircrafts that are based on real world experimental designs - Conquest X-30 (X-29), Phantom X-19 (Stealth Fighter concept), Storm Eagle (X-23), and Thunderwing (X-22, now the F-22) |

My parents got me the 83 HQ but could not get me both the HQ and the Sky Striker. I coveted my older cousin's jet. In hind sight the HQ has a lot more play value. As a result I got every jet that came out after the Sky Striker, to sort of over compensate. So I was an X-30 kid too. I just restored mine too, got my final little stabilizer wig. I got her all cleaned up and just need to order some decals.
