It's a cool 39.99$ cheappppppp.

I can't wait to paint, weather, sticker and arm this behemoth.

Wow, that is a pretty decent price.

Well I have to get working on it, I haven't started this project yet, i have to finish another painful one first.

_________________

Well make sure to get before pics cause I think thats what everyone is waiting to see anyways..

Yeah, I am actually stripping off the stickers and starting off with the factory base. So everyone can see the details on the molds before I go Hog wild on it.

Can't find it. I'll keep looking, though. Yesterday I found a big empty space in the True Heroes area... frustrating.

However, this is the kind of toy hunting that I used to enjoy. It's not a short-packed figure Hasbro is making impossible to find without using eBay.

My TRU FINALLY got this in. They actually have one assembled and opened on an endcap. They have it mounted and turned sideways much like they used to years ago when I was a kid. It was pretty cool to see, but yeah I need to pass. It's just too big. I can't fit that into what I already have.

I just want the heads from the three figures...

You know, I'm looking at this thing on this page:

While I can't really get behind the C-130 idea myself, this would probably be an awesome start to a custom Howler. It'd require some work and I don't think I'd pay $40 to tear it up. If I could get one cheap though, I might consider it.

Sorry for bump, wasn't sure where else to put this...I've been by two TRUs and they both had this thing on sale for 30% off, it was $31 and some change and the sale was until 07/15/12 (I think). Just FYI.

On a related note: does anyone have any pics of the C-130 from the Marvel comics? I can't seem to find my old issues and can't find much on the intarwebs.

Thanks for the heads up, always wanted to get one but they were alway priced at 44.99 at my TRU. Picked mine up this afternoon for 31.49. As far a the pics of the C-130 from the comics to you know generally what issues it was shown it. Ill look through some of my cold comics and see if I can find it.

I think Snake Eyes jumps out of a C-130 in Silent Interlude. There's a C-130 on the cover of issue 13, so it may be in there.
ARAH #19
Special Missions #1, #20.

_________________

The one from Issue 21 and Special Missions 1 is just a plain olive drab C-310, The one in Special Missions 20 is the same olive drab color but it has the camo pattern painted on it as well. Ill see if I can get some scans tomorrow when I'm off work. I think on top of repainting mine I'm going to customize the entire inside of mine. I'm going to rip out the cheap cockpit area and redo it and see if can open up the section between the cockpit and original open area having the entire plane open from front to back. Then I need to find some cannons for the side wal as close as possible to an AC-130 to truly make a fully decked out gunship.
