Four days left to get some votes in, although it doesn't seem like the Skystriker will be overtaken.

Machine Gun PAC/RAT - Seems too small to have enough ammo for 4 barrels. I mean, .002 seconds of ammo inside.
Missile Launcher PAC/RAT - It's okay...I guess. Four missiles and it's done. Polar Battle Bear - I had this but not Snow Job and lived where there was rarely snow. I liked it but it was not useful for me. S.N.A.K.E. - I like it more than the PAC/RAT's but it seemed like a slow moving weapon. Skystriker XP-14F - Never had a vintage one. I don't have attachment to it. The wings being connected to the landing gear was not great. Twin Battle Gun - I like it but I dunno. Viper - Cheap garbage. Wolverine - I like it but it doesn't make much sense for it to be a one person vehicle. Battle Gear Accessory Pack 1 - Including this? One of the best accessory sets, one that gives fans and reseller frustrations with the guns being close to originals. Why were the helmets brown, though? Official Collector Display Case - One of those things with the plastic that gets brittle with age, sadly. |

Loved the twin battle gun. What's not to like? two gatling guns anti-air, anti-personnel anti cobra

SNAKE. It worked with everything.
Is it an Imperial battle armor? Sure. Is it something Cylon originated? Sure. That thing had endless uses with a bunch of toylines. |

48 hours left but it looks like the Skystriker has this in the bag.

I never had a SkyStriker as a kid. My neighbor did though and it just seemed a pain to try to get two figures in there. I also concur with the other Tanker's comment that it was kind of limited in play value, unlike the ground vehicles. I now own a modern one-seater version (POC?) and it just sits on a shelf with other vehicles. I guess I just don't have that connection to it from my childhood. Jason |

I've still got the Polar Battle Bear, the blueprint, and the box. To me, that vehicle is as significant to my childhood toy memories as the Batmobile and the Mystery Machine.

That vintage box art hits harder than most others. It's just perfect for some reason.
