Picked up one of these for $19.99 before Christmas last year and just took it out of the box last night...
The G.I. Joe "Dragonhawk" dropship! Needs a bit of a repaint (such as the neon green buttons), but I think it looks pretty badass!
I'm going to give the whole thing a shot of dullcote, paint the missiles white (they are hard to see- but are in the weapons pods just above the skis), and maybe some weathering. Joe toys have come a long way; I love this thing! |

Admittedly that thing looks really sick but it's not much of a dropship is it unless the joes tape them elves to the belly for deployment |

It actually comes with a big cargo pod that fits underneath. Not scaled to 3 3/4 joes either, the figs from this line were about half as tall. I got one on sale last year too Kev and I love it. Really cool vehicle with all the lights and sounds and such. |

Be afraid..... Very AFRAID!!!!!! I did this in January thinking now all I need is a APC for it.. OK and a little cutting to the cockpit to fit pilot figures that are 3 3/4

There is also a small Joe mechasuit that attaches to it that can be deployed. |

Yeah I thought the cage that came with it was kinda dorky looking so I left it off. I'm on the lookout for the updated VAMP (which is compatable with the Dragonfly dropship):

Yeah it is... but since Sigma Six died a horrible death... hard to find. |

I thought so too! Take off the skids and weapon pods, paint it silver and there you go. |
