So I was hungry for more Joe content over lunch and went bouncing through the review links at JoeBattlelines and came across this sweet looking Rattler/A-10 looking piece from the 2006 Joe Collector's Convention. (https://joebattlelines.com/conventions/joecon2006.htm)
It looks like Marauder John had this on display at least as a prototype at the show, and honestly it looks pretty decent. I'm curious: What happened to it? Was anybody here in the forums at that show to see it that year? Does anybody have any stories to offer about it and why it disappeared? I love my Marauder Gun Runners stuff, so this piece is very intriguing to me. What do you think, Tankers? |

If that isn't the world peacekeepers/power team elite A-10 ots a he'll of a coincidence. The missiles and the slotted missile connections are the same. They have two missiles attached to the two bomb rack that comes with the A-10 and the F-18.
Either way its worth it. Pick one up. https://www.mctoy.com.hk/index.php/i/toyseries/2 |

MJ had access to some of the PTE molds (mostly diorama accessories like tables, chairs, lockers, etc.) and was going to have a limited run of blue rattler inspired PTE A-10s. I forget why it never materialized (lack of interest?) but the only prototype was sold on eBay at some point. There was an interview or something with MJ talking about it but I can?t find it now or remember where it was originally posted.
