Hey guys, know of any toyline that has a realistic scale-wise croc for Croc Master? The 25A crocadile is still too puney looking for Croc Master. |

Michael's arts and crafts store has Alligators and Crocs, they are statutory, but are otherwise great for use with him. |

I've got a rubber one full of plastic beads (some kind of squeeze toy) that should be just about the right size for a full grown croc in 1/18. Might check a dollar store or maybe wally world. If you're really desperate you might even try a pet store (PetCo, Petsmart) and go after an aquarium croc

If you want a huge one, pick up the one from the AT Recondo pack. Then have a few more of them to flank him. |

The CORPS! Adventure set had one that was absolutely beautiful. So was their standing polar bear in the Arctic set. As mentioned, if you have a Michael's art store near you, check out the section that has the world animals. I found three Joe sized Komodo dragons with amazing detail. They had both crocodiles and alligators there as well. |

awsome thanks guys, there is a Michael's nearby so I'll check that out before the dollar store. Going to stock up on some 1/18 scale full-size crocs before he comes out in wave 10. That's a perfect size croc btw Kronigstiger |

If you don't mind painting them yourself, look at BigLots. Last time I was in one, I picked up a three-pack of molded white, rubbery gators and crocs (each was a different species). You just have to paint them to your liking. But I figure for the $5 or so it was, that's not bad. |

The croc with the new Croc Master is definitely larger than the last one, but still not large enough, IMHO. It does have a movable mouth, though. |

It does have a movable mouth, though. agreed on both counts, but again it still looks like a little baby. Those other adult crocs look pretty 1:18 scale with the joes. Definitely going to stock up on a couple for the 25A Croc Master when he comes out - will have to fashion my own leash though. |
