yeah, it's undersized and crappy that the cargo hold can't hold a vamp but....it will make an awesome gunship custom. Gonna hafta find me some of these things.

Well, this was the one I was really debating on using:

Off topic kinda but...
TRUE FUCKING HEROES gets a modernized HMMWV and an EOD suit-wearing fucker??!!
I hate this hobby.
Somebody is going to have to see if they can get the gun turret on that crap Humvee off and see if it can fit on any of the PTE Humvees.
Also, I'd rather get the True Heroes Osprey, just so my Para-vipers will have leg room.

I don't care if it's too small - I'd have one.
If I can't get a true 1:18 one, I'll settle for Joe-compatible.
Gotta do what you can with what you've got.

thats why you use the handle to hang it from the ceiling with. I keep on laughing that they used radials instead of turboprop engines.
so did anybody else catch that they put radials on this instead of turbroprop enignes. Makes me wish they use two engines instead so I could make a dc-3/c-47
I don't care if it's too small - it doesn't HAVE to be a C-130 in your Joe-verse. Lots of customizing potential there.
I wouldn't say hate. Not impressed maybe? It's an interesting plane and it's nice to see someone making something like that around the Hasbro price of a jet but it would require a bit of work to be functionable for something most of the people here would want to use it for.
I think it's a great concept but I'm not dropping $40 on it when it can barely fit a RAM cycle in it. It's an awesome kids toy. It has a decent amount of playability and would keep a brat occupied for a while flying it around.

I'd love to see pics next to real 1:18th scale stuff.. put it next to the JSI F-14 for example.. meh.
I wanted to believe.. but it just isn't working out for me. It's far too small to even have figure STAND UP in the exit bay.. that's kind of pushing it, regardless of realism.
Like Eddie said.. this would be great for Matchbox or 1:144 scale stuff.

If someone wants to drop the $40 and convert this into something 'real world' useful let me know. I'm not sure what planes exist in that size-frame, but with some work I bet you could use it for something.
I've never been impressed with any Chap Mei vehicles. Maybe that Moray looking boat but nothing else.
The boat works quite nicely. The rocket hauler could work as well. As for this unproportioned pile of plastic...meh
Just for perspective.. a TRUE 1:18th scale C-130 would have a length of about 4.5 feet and a wingspan of over 7 feet. This isn't really even close. Maybe half? So closer to 1:35th scale.
You could use it as a proto scaled down one for a smaller radar signature or some such crap. Maybe the door is smaller because they are using the Resolute jet packs and need to go out more streamlined then vertical
