I would like to see more helos

Post by Legoguy76 » Sun May 08, 2005 8:33 am

Newbie here..
Just wanted yall's thoughts on the next helos that the toy makers will make. Personally, I would love to see an MH-53J Pave Low in 1:18 scale. It would be crazy big but would be a great compliment to the Pave Hawk, Apache, Little Bird, and Kiowa. Maybe a MV-22 later on? I understand scale-wise those would be massive but they would definately rock if done right.
On another note...I would also love to see like USAF combat pack. Say like 4 figures...2 PJ's and 1 combat controller, and one SF. That would be pretty neat.
Just a few thoughts for yall to chew on. This forum rocks!

According to Roy Sutherland of 21c, helos don't sell all that well so they are less excited about making them....especially now that many of the 'hot' ones have been covered.

Having said that there is a strong rumour going around that BBI is making a Russian Hind. It is my sincerest hope that that this is true. :D

As a helo fan. I would love to see more Helicopters. I would got for them from other countries. There are many cool copter to cover. The Hind would be a dream come true, if it happens. I would like to see a Nam version Cobra also, but who knows what we will see in the future if anything.

I know that the helos don't sell, but I would still like to see a Hind and a Chinook in 1:18!

Amen to that Tman! My Marines want a Chinook! Also making a Chinook and Hind there are so many repaint possibilities, and we all know that BBi and 21st like to make repaints. :D
