Both are a lot like these 2.5" Sigma 6 vehicles.

The issue I have with (the VAMP) it is that the doors do not have snaps so they will not stay closed. A little work will be required. Well worth the price though.

let me know if you figure out a fix

I got a fix already, I just need a second to do it. Just take some plastic from anything and make a small nub so that it can be glued inside the door. When it closes it'll snap the door shut. If you want to wait until I do it, I will be fixing it by next weekend and can shoot a picture. It should be a real easy fix that won't take long at all.

I am crazy busy w/ work so yeah please post a pic

Got these today. I have only had time to pull out the VAMP. Pretty impressed with the quality, as most of the knock off stuff feels too cheap. Haven't had a chance to pull out the jet though.

If anyone finds the blue version, please post.

I did some quick comparison pics using the ones YJAGG posted.

Having played a little with the Jeep I noticed that there is a battery compartment that could hold AA batteries, but there are no electronics. Also, there is a spot for a speaker. This is very remnant of some of the VvV vehicles that came out. The Neutralizer has a place for batteries and a speaker, but neither are in it. I really think that if I were to find an old Hasbro GI Joe speaker, it would fit perfectly in the Boley toys jeep.

I didn't realize that jet was retooled, not bad.

I still want the knock off ROcc, I hope we see it.

Dunno about anyone else, but these knock-offs have a very "Colonial Marines" look/feel to them. :shifty:

Good to know. I picked this set up at Dollar General a week before you posted this but lack of camera..blah blah blah..
Anyway I bought it to turn the jet into a Red Shadow's jet and have partially disassembled it. I happened to read this before I started paint aps so I put a coat of primer on it now that I read the paint wasn't sticking. So thanks for saving me from polluting the air with foul and abusive language.

I don't care much for that Jeep/VAMP, but the Jet/Firebat is cool looking. If anyone picks one up and doesn't care for it, let me know. I would take it off your hands, as we don't have any Dollar General stores around here.

Glad to help a fella out

Madon, check your pms.

I like these toys, I picked it up for the jeep after reading about someone wanting a jet.

I took the stickers off and immediately, it looks a ton better.

The jeep has a real halo feel to it, in my mind, but I like it very much.
