My top 5 include:

- The C130
- The cobra Airship from the cartoon - When I was a wee lad, I would use my mom's ironing board as a cobra airship.
- the german plane from Raiders of the Lost Ark
- a Joe Submarine playset
- Mega Force Strikemaster Attack Shuttle - Though anything from that line could be wicked cool.

I'm really surprised that someone hasn't said Colonial Marines APC and/or Dropship from Aliens ;-), as I would like to see them in 1/18th scale. Dropship need to be able to hold the APC too :-D.

I second or whatever number on the Halo, as all that stuff would rock, even know that Warthog that is out now works okay for being on the larger side. Also always wanted to see the Pelican Dropship or Scorpion Tank, but don't think it will ever happen with the size and all of the line. Might have, if Mcfarlane would have kept doing that mini scale that Joyride started.

I second the Aliens APC - I have a set of the Hot Toys 3-3/4 Aliens Colonial Marines figures (snap kits) and they are awesome, but we were always missing decent vehicles. There was a Dropship planned for the Kenner Aliens line but it got dropped at the last minute. It wasn't great though - only held 1 figure in the front and was chunky.

I sprung for the large size diecast APC and Dropship that came out a few years ago - really nice.

At least I picked this up back in the 80s when it was cheap. :-D

God wish I still had mine, my sister broke the gatting gun off the front.
And then my mother gave it away thinking since I didn't touch as often, I didn't want any more.
I was trying to find a way to fix the gun the whole time.

C-130 Hercules with Slipstream, a bombardier and a navigator
USAV Spearhead TSV-1X with Cutter, Rampart and Topside
Stryker APC with Rollbar
HEMTT (heavy expanded mobility tactical truck) with Long Range and Tollbooth


All because the Joes are seriously lacking in transport vehicles for all environments for both troops and equipment. And for Cobra, that Skycrane chopper from the old comics.

Well, I knew someone would correct me, if I was wrong. Must have missed that the first time ;-). Well they would still be cool to get none the less.
