DRAGONFLY M5-R

Many people complain about the funky, bright, rainbow-ish colors and paint jobs. These new toys are primarily for children (ages 3+), not adult collectors.

Only $9.99!!! Batteries included!


Both rotors spin manually. The main rotor's blades can fold back (see box picture).


See that orange oval button underneath the main rotor and exposed engine? Press it to see the orange areas light up and to hear rotor sounds! The sound clarity and pitch are the best I've seen in any 3 3/4" toy vehicle.


Gray hook retracted.


Gray hook pulled out. A simple feature that enhances playability!




Ball-and-socket jointed c0ckpit handle


Eagle Eye with Dragonfly M5-R.


Eagle Eye fits in snugly inside c0ckpit.


Decals neatly pre-applied.


Comparison with Marauders Stealth Copter.


Ravage: How come the Dragonfly M5-R is so much cooler than our tiny stealth copter?!
Eagle Eye: 'Cause we're The Corps!


Ravage: You can have my sissy copter in exchange for yours!
Eagle Eye: In your dreams, sissy!






Comparison with M-Zero Flash Hawk and Marauders Stealth Copter.


My only complaint is the lack of a weapon. It makes the Dragonfly a sitting duck or rather a flying duck. Nevertheless, the Dragonfly M5-R is one sweet looking chopper! Thumbs up to Lanard for creating two badass new vehicles for The Corps!

That chopper looks great. It's a must have and it wouldn't be too hard to add some guns.

It looks cool. I can't decide if I'd want more than 1 though. A second one would be to bring over for G.I.Joe or Cobra in some way.

I can see this converted into an Adventure Team Capture Copter. I might get 2 and paint one yellow to make the standered AT copter. Hope these show up at Wal-Mart soon!

3-MAN RECON: MARAUDERS WITH ALL-TERRAIN CYCLE

Only $4.99. Another reason to love The Corps!
Beautiful artwork shows Roadrash driving the All-Terrain Cycle.
If only there were a cartoon. Maybe one day I'll do it.


Marauders. From left to right: Roadrash, Ravage, Vulture.
Ravage is the leader of the Marauders and comes with an impressively huge gun.
Vulture is the pilot of the Marauders and comes with a crossbow.




Gotta love Vulture's bloody scar! Seriously how many 3 3/4" toys have blood smeared over their faces!?


Roadrash. He's the highlight of this review. He comes with 3 accessories: a black speargun, a gray handgun, and a black knife. Roadrash can store all 3 weapons. Pretty cool, eh!


It's never mentioned if the All-Terrain Cycle is exclusively for Roadrash but it seems that way since he's the leather jacket, mohawked bad boy. He's the hot shot of the Marauders.


I hope this is Lanard's final repaint of this particular motorcycle. It has been repainted for the umpteenth time. Ironically, this is my favorite version. Love the paint job. It complements Roadrash and it's got that Marauders feel. Unfortunately, the cycle is not perfect. Its handlebars are small and fragile. And there's no way to seat Roadrash gripping the handlebars with his feet on the foot rests.


The All-Terrain Cycle completes Roadrash's look. It was made for him. They're an inseparable duo.


Pick up this set if you see it! Trust me, you will not be disappointed!

I'd love to know where the FULLY ARMED part of the motorcycle is as it has NO weapons to be FULLY ARMED. And T-crotched still means BLEH!

_________________

That's a typo. They meant FULLY ARMED FIGURES. All 3 figures come with their own weapon(s). The motorcycle is not supposed to be armed. Thankfully, it isn't.

I like T-Crotches.

_________________

That SO isn't a typo...... Its printed right under the motorcycle... I bet it was supposed to have weapons of some type but they didn't get around to it.. Thats how you defend something like that. You do know I'm just having fun and totally dissing you I hope.

Husker85 has reported that he found the Sky Raptor


viewtopic.php?f=15&t=26609 is his thread about it. Says it comes with a pilot figure as well.

Hey, just wanted to let folks know that I spotted a Corps Sky Raptor at, believe it or not, my local grocery store (Bi-Lo) in Charlotte, NC. On sale for $10.99. Haven't seen it at Wal-mart yet. Probaly will pick one up this week and add it to my Flagg fleet. A new S.H.A.R.C perhaps.

This comes with a figure as well. Standard pilot except it is the blue with grey accents like you get in the three pack.

SON OF A BISCUIT! I was living in Clarion, PA for two years and there was a Bi-Lo down the street (even though it closed 3 months before I left).

_________________

That Sky Raptor screams Marvel vehicle to me, I might want to get a couple and make SHEILD or similar versions out of it.

If you get one, be sure to post pics!

And hook some people up as well.....

Just got the Sky Raptor today. I will post pics, but it does come unassembled like the way RAH vehicles did back in the day. Great if you want to start a custom and not have to disassemble anything. All on sprues and is very detailed. Doesn't look like it has a typical landing gear like the switchblade, so like I said before, this could be a real nice upgrade to the vintage S.H.A.R.C. I'll also let everyone know if the vintage Deep Six fits in the cockpit, but it loos to be a stretch. I checked another Bi-Lo and they didn't have any Corps stuff. This could be hit or miss. The Bi-Lo I got mine from had three and now there are two. I had stated in another post in general customizing that I would help if somebody wanted one. So, right now until I see more I can only get my hands on two. PM me if interested. If I get more than two requests then I guess it will have to be a best offer kind of thing or maybe work something out with the forum administrators. Come to think of it, maybe that is the better way to go. IDK
