Awesome review, thanks for sharing.
My question is copypasta from Macross World, but maybe people hear would like to know the answer too... feel free to answer me on either board, or just copypasta your response too (however you like): I wonder if it's in Canadian Toys R' Us stores... and that makes me wonder. you say in the review that it's 1/32 (or so), I have never even considered looking at 1/32 scale vehicles for GI Joes... I just assumed they'd never work and look silly. I guess on a bigger item like armour or a plane it matters less and less as you get bigger. But have you ever picked up any other 1/32 items that are 25th Compatible? |

I guess on a bigger item like armour or a plane it matters less and less as you get bigger. I haven't gotten any 1/32 models that were 25th compatible, as most of them are not big enough to house the figures(armor/wwII aircraft). You are better off waiting for PTE, Hasbro, or Motormax to make "joe scale" vehicles, hope they might be in 1/32 like the F-22 or Skystriker, and made from the start to accomodate joes. |

I saw this at my TRU and was kind of surprised at how big it is. It looks a bit smaller in the pictures. The only problem IMO is that being all black makes it look more Cobra-ish than stealthy. LOL. The landing gears simply rock though and the zig-zag stealth etching all over the plane was a nice touch. |

I was ogling this the other day.
I plan to get it and put some COBRA stickers on it and make it a Night Raptor to complement the Night Raven. |

Thanks for the review. I picked mine up yesterday and put the modern era ACE pilot from VvV line. To be honest-it just looks as real as it gets. As far as the plane, please be careful with the cockpit, I didnt break mine, but once its removed from the plane-it does go back on, just doesnt stay in the socket as well when you open the cockpit again. Great review by the way. I was looking at the picx and wondering if you could compare the size to the SKYSTRIKER, for all intents and purposes, I think the F-22 is bigger. If they can do this, they can do the SKYSTRIKER. TRU and motomax would have a windfall of unbelievable proportions. Obviously they can do a simple, toyetic Joe jet (yet again) then they can obviously do the jet that collectors and fans have been wanting since the getgo. I do like the jet, but the Skystriker is still meaner looking and cooler. Its just my opinion, nothing more. I like the F22 and they did a great job, I just want them to put out another cool jet.
