I had this idea for a long time now, then recently I found a extra Bugg front part. I knew I had to build this and I am happy with how it came out. Originally I wanted to use Dragonfly skis but they just kept breaking on me when I tried to cut them. The rotors were from a True Heroes helicopter I found at a flea market.

That works surprisingly well. If you get another Bugg front section it could even be a submersible.

Yet another perfect mishmash of parts that look like they could have been a production vehicle. Very well done.

This is great. Makes me think of the opening and end credits of M*A*S*H. Great use of parts.

I thought of making some kind of space craft out of one. I might do that next time.

Actually there was a ww2 helicopter called the Hoverfly. Looks kind of the same too.
