    The best part is how smooth it is where the chassis were combined. It really looks like it was molded as one piece. I'm impressed.

    BTW--When I came across your post on a TF G1 website about three or four years ago, I thought that your board name was the greatest thing I've ever read. Now. Three years later. I feel the same.

    Its a very good possibility, I will be keeping an eye out for some good deals on trashed Stinger and Vamp shells once I get my new printer payed for. I took a massive amount of reference photos and measurements during assembly for the event of making more APC's.
    Would you work on one if say a person were to supplt you the vehicles and some cashola for printer and paint work?

    Just wondering is all.

    THIS. And how did you do the vehicle on the blueprint? Looks all engineer-y.

    I would prefer to buy the jeeps up front than have them provided, this way if something happens and I am unable to finish the job noone gets the shaft.

    I did pretty much the same thing I did for the custom, just cut up two jeeps and spliced them together. I made a new graph paper background with Joe logo for it and typed in all the text. The canopy I took from the joe APC blueprint and modified it.

    that thing is awesome. i was especially impressed with the fact that you made the canopy as opposed to just trying to mash up something to fit. super work man.

    Are you talking about those female Cobras from the Convention set? I haven't tried them, but they use the same basic body as the male Cobra trooper and he fits just fine. It will fit comfortably six figures of the 82-94 type, plus two in the front seats. Doubt it would fit the 25th style figures at all, they are quite a bit bigger.
