Certainly there are areas on the top of the fuselage that have a sandy/grainy texture, and other areas are relatively smooth.

Congrats RedRaptor! My favorite Joe vehicle as a kid! If I was going to get any of the piloted vehicles, the NR would be top of the list.

I wasn't planning on it, but I bought most of a Night Raven today for $20. I have never examined one in person until now. Wow what a plane. I still need a drone, one missile rack w/ missiles,the rear landing gear covers, a new sticker set of course, and maybe a new air brake gun (ends of the barrels are broken.) Anyway two minor issues 1) is the front of the plane textured? There was some similarly textured gunk on the nose and I scubbed it off with some goo gone, but when I got to the area under the cockpit it wouldn't budge. Issue 2) since I'm here, I haven't looked it up yet so dont tell me to look it up please, the left tail is loose is the a way to correct? Thinking a bit of masking tape, maybe.
Thanks in advance. Wow what a toy. I always looked askance at the Night Raven. Not any more. As fas as the gunk..that must have been the prior owner. People do some "creative" things with their toys sometimes. The tail fin issue plagues most owners who have older, well played with NR's. The tape thing will work or there are adhesive puttys that will not damage the plastic that can be used. This allows you to continue to remove the tail fin when you want without the sticky residue left behind by tape. PM me the list of NR parts you need and I'll see what I have. Again, congratulations!

First off..great deal on a great vehicle. I think I have some of the parts you need for the Raven, I'll hook you up if you send me your mailing address. There is also a seller on eBay named wormyworms who does great repro stickers that are pre-cut and numbered. I just finished my NR and the stickers are excellent. They cost me $7.99 and look perfect.

Got mine 100% complete with little drone on top,& figure w/uncut filecard & blueprints. Actually bought the night Raven and cobra moray 100% complete from the same guy. Still trips me out thinking of how big it is... Nowadays they'd never make big planes/jets, and other huge vehicles. Also, the more time that passes the bigger 87 & older vehicles and playsets are gonna be unreal $ wise!!

I can say that I belong in this club. Don't have any pictures of my vintage or ROC birds though. Will have to work on that when I can find the time and them.
I hate to hit up this thread with a pitch, but might be able to help out some by doing it. As if anyone is looking for this bird or parts, I do have one complete (no figure) and a bunch of pieces. momaw nadon |
