Looked around a bit on the site for an answer but didn't stumble upon what I was looking for so sorry if this is a repeat....
Anyways, I've been eye balling this toy line for awhile now and still haven't taken the plunge and bought a set. I'll check em out on-line and get all pumped with the options for customs but when I get down to TRU and see em on the shelf, I get turned off. I'm sure someone out there can tell me how well the scale of the True Heroes vehicles, play-set, weapons stack up to modern Joes. They look a tad smaller then 1:18 but is it that bad of a difference? And how would you rate the quality of the martial used for this toy line? The price is great but I don't wanna piss away $20 if I don't have too. These are the ones I'm interested in...anyone got em and could give me a quick review? Or any review on the line for that matter? Thanks!!

Thanks for the input autopilot! You wouldn't happen to have any pics of your fleet of humvees out of box?
Yeah, hear ya on the figures. They would be either donated or given to the dog to chew on. Again, thanks!!

I like them I have a few, but they are one sided(most of the cool features, paint, opening doors are on one side the sides are usually plain

Most of the True Hero sets are loaded with repainted Chap Mei figs, which sad to say are pretty lame. Occasionally a set comes out with the old PTE figs (which many of the vehicles are based on) and those are great generic army guys.
The Vehicles are awesome, but do have flaws. For example the Blackbird chopper had seats that are totally unaccessable. However almost all the vehicles (Both from Chap Mei and PTE) work great with joes (both ME and RAH, but ARAH are easier to use with them). |

Pretty simple, but to add the mix, vehicles okay, figures crap.

If you like the vechile get it. It can always be customized to fit your needs. I removed the back seats on my blackbird & replaced the floor with Duct tape. It does what I want it to.
