1/6th scale GIJoe vehicle?

[karamazov80]

I would definitely go for smaller vehicles like the Swamp Skiier or Trouble Bubble, except as others say, the price would probably still be $150+, which would be waaay to high for me (lord only knows what Sideshow would charge from something like a HISS Tank or Awe Striker).

Maybe they could use cheaper material and charge a more reasonable price?

Hey guys I surely hope someone from Sideshow is reading this. And possible as next year we can have some 1/6th vehicles. Cough cough Snowcat, SKy Hawk,
The 1960's GI Joe's was 12 inches and they did have 1/6 vehicles for those figures. Come Sideshow put some vehicles out there.

Yo man, I still have most of those figures in my room. lol!!!

Now these are/were very awesome!!!!

IF Sideshow does decide to make some 1/6 vehicles it will be highly expensive.

I've done several scale ups:

My Ferret:

And on the workbench, a CLAW:

I've done the Bivouac playset:

There's more that I'm in the middle of but those'll get posted when they're done.

Those are really great lookin, Kozin! I had the Bivouac as a kid, always liked that set. I'm really diggin the Claw glider, can't wait to see where you take it!!!

Wasn't Stormshadow and the C.L.A.W. introduced in the same issue?, where he rescued a captured Cobra Commander from the Joe team.


The CLAW or Trubble Bubble (that's how they spelled it, don't blame ME.)
would be must buy's in my case.

If people won't pay $130 for a wall, wolf, and briefcase, what makes you think they would pay $300+ for a tiny vehicle. $1,000+ for a Hiss tank or anything that size? Heck, we haven't even seen a 1:6 Speeder Bike from Star Wars dispite getting a 1:4 scale one.

Sadly, the price of "the wall" has turned me off to the vehicle idea. I would pay $150 for Zartan and Swamp Skiier together, though. . .in a second.

I second that "in a second". !!!

Storm Shadow and the C.L.A.W. are introduced in issue 21. Where Storm captures Scarlett and brings her to Destro's castle. Snake Eyes rescues her.

I know a few folks that would pay decent money for a HISS Tank. Considering what some custom 1/6 WWII tanks go for, $1K is not a big deal.

Well, no 1:6th speeder bike from Sideshow at any rate The Hasbro one is fair though, especially with some detail and paint.

Personally, I'd like to see the RAM motorcyle. It's be pretty do-able at the scale in question, too...New Ray has made several nice 1/6th motorbikes in the $20-$40 range.

I would have paid $150 for this.

But no interest in a corner of a house.

Don't forget the brief case and the little wolf that come with it!
