Well, for me, I'd love to get a Hovercraft LCAC for the Joes

I'd also love to get some sort of APC for my Cobras. Maybe a Stryker or something similar

The APC idea would be cool. I want a JSF (F-35) for sure.

Something I've thought about but haven't tried to make myself would be a vehicle playset. Sort of like the Star Wars ships, but more using fold out abilities. Like say a huge SR71 type of plane that folds out to be a Cobra base. If the right people designed it, it could work well and look neat. It would shave some cost out of production by giving people 2 play environments in one.

The MLRS or Multiple Launch Rocket System would be a great Joe vehicle. It would replace the MMS. The MLRS isnt exactly new, but its currently used by our military.

The Crusader or Paladin Howitzer would be awesome too. The Crusader never made it to production so the Paladin is still the current technology here in the States. I used to work on a Paladin.

I know I should have pics of this stuff but I could find files in the right format. So look them up on the net, cool stuff!!

Predator remote controlled aircraft

Stealth Fighter jet F-117

An Abrahms tank Joe-ified to replace the dated Mauler and oversized Grizzly. Maybe even give us an inside so it acts like a playset to offset the cost of a large vehicle.

I don't know how long it has been that fans have been asking, but Cobra needs a large transport helicopter. That would fill a gaping hole in a lot of collections right there.

You're as bad as Kilcarr sometimes, P-luv :P


I wouldn't mind seeing some plain-old troop transports. Something like the modern FMTV - because the APC is a little dated. An FMTV works for troops, cargo, etc.

A Stryker/LAV could be "Joe'd" up to make it look more futuristic yet still have its roots in real-life equipment.

And as lame as it is - I want to see an update to the SkyHawk - bigger & more practically designed, but keeping to the spirit of the original.

The German fennek would be cool

The Gaz 3937

I'd also love to see a Joe-ified M1 with multiple crew positions.
An F22 and a RAH-66 Comanche would be great (especially as it was "cancelled").

YES! I got to see the two proto Comanches flying when I was at Ft Rucker several years ago (right before they cancelled the program :( ) they were friggin' awesome - I'd love to get a Joe-scaled Comanche :D

1. Unmanned airborne drone w/remote station and operator figure
2. Cartoon "proto"sharc w/Torpedo
3. C-130ish transport plane w/pilot. Obviously, it wouldn't be to scale. Maybe with removable wings and a break-away side panel to get inside. Big enough to hold two or three vamps.
4. Utility vehicle set. Small, non-combat type vehicles. Two or three in a set. Things like forklifts, golfcarts, etc. Older characters like Zap or Short-Fuze in more relaxed uniforms.
5. Cobra Space Shuttle w/the Baroness
6. Comanche-ish helicopter w/pilot that isn't Wild Bill. Was the Comanche helicopter program scrapped? At any rate, it looked cool and the Joes should have some version of it. I was typing this as the last two posts were put up, but I'm leaving in it.
7. MAGGOT re-released in better colors w/Worms.

How about a red 1986 Camaro with gullwing doors.
The C-130 is a good idea, and the AC-130 would be just as good.
A business jet, for Cobra.
Osprey, with nose-mounted Gatling gun.
M1 Grizzly Engineer Vehicle
Transport helicopter for Cobra.

This thing:

And with maybe a pop-out hang-glider.

I'd like to see Cobra finally get a true fighter jet, perhaps a mig-29 or even one of the newer Russian jets. As much as I love the Rattler and Night Raven, I just cant make myself believe they would survive a dogfight with a Skystriker.

Also would have to go along with a Stryker, C-130, and Osprey.

I just want a 25th Swampmasher. Maybe, in more realistic colors.

The line has always had a serious lack of troop transports, either surface or flying. The couple of large transports that have come out, (that I'm aware of) are both for the Joes. I guess that's why all the Cobra troops start out as infantry.

I'd love to see the stryker as a cobra vehicle. But I hate them so oh well.

I'd like to see an updated hiss. something designed like a modern MBT with dual cannons to make it more hiss like.

I'd also like to see a "super" Abrams for my Joes. Something that feels like a regular M1 with extra special stuff to make it more fitting with Joe.

A paladin with Thunder would rule.

Cobra troop transport chopper with swappable cargo bays would rule.

a pick up truck with different mountable weapons would also pwn.

An updated Sky Hawk, not really a redesign but atleast as much as they updated the trubble bubble and vamp etc.

A larger version with some slight redesigns of that cobra sigma 6 fighter, like make that transparent bit in back be an enclosed bomb bay. or pop out missile launcher.

A tank like http://paperkraft.blogspot.com/2008/04/ ... -mark.html or http://www.ea.com/official/cc/cc3/us/release.jsp and even the Orca would be sweet to get as well. Even just the turret from the tank on a Mauler body would be sweet as well.
