After seeing the Iron Man movie, I realize the name of this jeep is the "Fun-Vee". It's really cool. I was just checking to see if Toys R Us decided to get a restock of the exclusives and while I didn't find those I found this:



I'm leaning toward saying it's Cobra's, but I don't know. It's so cool that I might let G.I.Joe have it. It has a neat feature (or I think it's neat) where the front wheels pull out and fold up to make it a stationary gun. I assume the gun on top is suppose to be like a howitzer, so the folding wheels are to lock it down when firing I guess. Of course in the pretend world. It's really nice and well worth looking for. It was $16.99.

There's also an ATV included that has a feature sort of like the jeep. You fold the wheels down and rotate the body for a bunker sort of presentation. You can mount 2 over sized .50 cal guns on both sides on the wheels alond with a firing missile mounted on the ATV body. You get a couple of over sized weapons and 2 ugly figures too, but they're not worth anything.

Hi, i dont want to be rude but this is a very good looking vehicle..my point is: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING TO OPEN IT!!! and show us some more pics. Thanks.

I saw this at TRU the other night and thought it was pretty cool. The one thing that turned me off though was the wheel feature. As a straight up vehicle its very nice looking and would fit in my Joeverse nicely. But that feature kinda killed it for me.

I want a fleet with those wheels! Hell, I bet the army does too!

Damn right brother...rip that S*** open!

Hehe, It's open and pics are ready. There's a little Hulk fun thrown in too just to show off the cool new figure.

Honestly, it's the folding wheel feature that really makes it cool. Sort of like the Slugger having the fold down shovel/brace or any construction vehicle with the fold down braces. It's really rather neat and you can't even tell that it has fold out wheels when they are in the "drive" position.

The weapons suck. Over sized and the 2 .50 cal looking guns are both made of cheap rubber and over sized. I didn't even shoot a picture of the figures since they suck. The arms legs and head are cheap rubber too. Anyway, on to the pictures:

Oh, one other thing as you can see from the one inner picture, there is no steering wheel. That's an easy fix, but some may be turned off due to having to glue a steering wheel in. I don't mind and will be making one to put in once I decide who gets this. As it's seen with Destro in there, I'm leaning toward Cobra.

One other thing, there is a wall that limits the foot space on the front seats. It's another easy fix, but a pain in the butt for it to be there. Even the crappy figures it comes with can't fit. The back seats have limitations too and will require some modifying.

Would like to see some shots of the weapons with a figure or 2 for size. The vehicle and ATV are really cool looking. I might have to keep an eye out for this one.

Thnxs for the pics! great vehicle as i supposed and looks to work perfect with joe figures.
IMO i think you should give it to you Gijoe forces...it looks very military, and doesnt have the Evil needed to be a Cobra.
Of course that´s just my opinion.
