I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread to ID the sculpts used to create the vehicle drivers in the Retaliation toy line. I figure if anyone is trying to articulate these, it may save time. And in some cases, the sculpts can be used to make other figures if you can add the articulation. Phil and I talked these through If anyone can fill in any blanks, please post.

Duke (Ghost Hawk II)
Head Steel Brigade Delta helmet
Torso Data Viper (with added belt)

I just realized that 5poa Cobra Commander is most of the cancelled Howler pilot. Has hindsight revealed anything else?

Too bad none of the parts except the heads are usable elsewhere.

Wasn't the Night Fox legs the same as Retaliation Trooper? They looked really familiar...

This is an awesome idea.

Night Fox is almost all Ult Duke, think the only difference is the vest.

Thanks guys, I updated the list.

This is awesome! Thanks for doing this!

Would you mind if we stuck this in the joe wiki?

Are there pics if this unreleased Howler pilot guy? I don't recall hearing if that before.
