Love these prototypes. 😍 Maybe they can make an aircraft carrier for Ravens only.

In the comics they used an oil tanker as a VTOL carrier - for Hurricanes. I think it was called the "Arbco Valdez."
Most Cobra aircraft are VTOL, so the idea of them using a modified oil tanker or some other similar very large cargo ship makes sense to me. They could launch Hurricanes, Rattlers, Firebats, and every copter in the inventory. If they kept all of them under deck they could also just disguise themselves as a peaceful commercial ship. |

I like the idea of a disguised or similarly covert aircraft carrier for Cobra. A carrier is a large asset and would attract a LOT of attention/fire. I don’t think Cobra has the ability to put to sea the number of support/protection vessels to keep a carrier safe enough to conduct meaningful operations.
Maybe a submersible carrier would be the best bet?

I’d gladly crowd fund either or both of them.

This vehicle would ignite even more interest in the Retro line, which seems to be doing well so far. Since it would work with vintage then that broadens the buying pool even more. It would especially work well if the wings could tilt upward for easier shelf display. I'd crowdfund a couple of them without hesitation. |

Now that would be a true HasLab project for the 4" figures!

Something like this, and other great vehicles, would tie into a reboot/continuance of the ARAH cartoon with additional comic influence.
Animation on the small screen is thriving today. It's a shame the powers that be won't roll the dice on GI Joe in animated form again using classic designs ala MOTU Revelations. |
