Donny comes with a photo of April to beat it to.

Saw it at TrU. First trailer has a tiny Joescale TPz Fuchs and the second some form of tank/IFV. Also have an RC Abrams. Looked to be 1:16.

:whatever: LEGO has a shtick and they've stuck to it. What's Hasbro's excuse? Still using the old oil prices line?

Eh, I buy LEGO minifigures to sit in a display case. I appreciate the aesthetic for what it is. Back to the topic at hand, I agree, MB really did nail these. Though Total Recall Leonardo is horrifying.

Since JSI is actually doing part of this, does anyone want to see the rest of the XM/M6 (quad M60Cs) and XM/M21 (M134s) for this thing? That would include the turret and guns, plus feed boxes and chutes. Maybe an XM9 (40mm grenade launchers) since we'd already have most of the required mount...

The weathering is laughable even without the super glue.

The bench on the Huey is so low as to be virtually useless. Drop the floor!

I was so interested in the ammo can that I didn't even notice the M5 was missing.

The ammo can on the XM93/XM93E1 should go almost floor-to-ceiling, could be wider, too. Also need to source some ejector chutes. Did I mention there should be a rotary feed drum for the M5 in there as well? :trollface:

8 troops or 4 litters/stretchers. Not that you're gonna get that in there even with the wider doors.

The reality is that it's either scale fidelity or figure compatibility. I'd go with compatibility.

Not that I can find.

$35/side. http://www.fighting118th.com/forum/cold-war-era-1950-s-1980-s-/9084-113-vietnam-modernday-grade.html

Depot fresh!

I still can't find a Charlie with that M134 set up. I've found a USAF Papa model that uses it, and I thought I saw a Navy Seawolf bird with it, but I'm only finding that one with the 134 on a sagami.

It's not great, but at least it's not $200. If I can figure out a way to get those M134s mounted some other way, or mount them on my Joe Team gunship, I'll take one for what's left of the team. :trollface:

It's easy to slick these gunships. Not really any point, though, as they're short bodies, with even more limitations because of figure/interior seating and scale discrepancies. At least they removed the seat this time.

The M5 is a separate piece. At worst you'd have to fill 2-3 holes after pulling it.

6-8 new parts tacks a c-note onto the cost? I'll buy a $240 Harrier before I pay $200 for that Huey. :D

$200 would be just ridiculous.
