well if you could pick me up one i'd be much obliged. Here are some pictures of it just to make sure we're on the same page. Looks like a short, chubby, Chinook helicopter

Aferg,
Check out Timd`s album.

He took one of these helo`s & extended the body

Looks Bloody awesome with the added length.

Hope you get one mate

I`m after a 2nd myself.

Lontic appears to be a front (or ?) for Chap Mei. Found the short Chinook on the new TRU website:

They also had a nice pontoon enabled copter. No idea what it is copied from (rivet counters jump in please!).

it's their version of a littlebird....they had it in a military paint version too a few years ago.

I see the new TRU online shop doesn't ship outside the US either...just like Amazon. Good to know..
