Got the new Tomahawk (not calling it the "Eaglehawk", copyrights be damned) and I'm trying to decide who to have crew it once I put it on display. Right now I'm planning on 25th Lift-ticket, 25th Wild Bill in the co-pilot seat and 25th Airborne in the loadmaster seat behind the cockpit. And for when I display the live-action movie team I'll swap in the movie style figures of those characters.

Got any better ideas?

I'd keep Wild Bill in the Dragonfly and then make a custom of Lighthorse to put in the Tomahawk.

I don't currently have, nor have future plans to acquire a Dragonfly which is why Wild Bill rides shotgun in the Tomahawk.

I just put mine together last night and I've got the same three in the front of the whirlybird.

In the forward-facing passenger seats I have Crazylegs and Ripcord.

Rear-facing I have Rock-n-Roll and Roadblock on the door guns.

O-Ring figures only for me. I went with a psudo-Southeast Asia thing. Kinda. In the back, comic pack Stalker, Snake "Classified" Eyes, Tommy A, Tunnel Rat, a v1 Rock & Roll. In the front a Greenshirt and a 6-pack Night Force Flint with a head swap to make it look like a generic pilot. It's kind of an odd mix, but I like it.

Mine still needs stickers applied

Lift Ticket is in the front with and LBC Up Draft (Black and Grey Wild Bill w/ a new head)

Load Master Seat: 30th Crazy Legs

Front Seats:Custom Hollow Point (3 pack Beachhead w/ tread ripper Clutch Head), 30th Life Line

Gunner Seats: 3 pack Sgt. Air Borne (I use him as airwave), Renegades Rip Cord who I use as Frieght

Mine's crewed with 25th Lift Ticket on the lead stick and Retaliation Lift Ticket riding shotgun.
Loadmaster's Seat: Tiger Force Flint
Front Seats: Air Raid and Resolute Scarlett
Gunner Seats: Chuckles and RoC Repeater

I realize it's a little random, but that recent set of issues of Flint's mission to nab Darklon that resulted in them being extracted by the Tomahawk really stuck with me. That squad seems like a decent ground squad that's taken over the positions in the Tomahawk to cover their exits. I'd hoped to get Lady Jaye in their but I've got an old version with the bad waist piece so her legs are spread out way too far when she sits to fit in the Tomahawk.

Don't you watch cartoons? All any vehicle needs is one guy to drive. The seat beside it is for guests, for tea and scones when Lift-Ticket has his friends over.

I think Tripwire would make a good addition for a modern E/T-Hawk crew member. http://www.yojoe.com/action/09/tripwire6.shtml

His Tiger Force version gave him chopper co-pilot SMOS, and along with a medic in the mix, could make an E/T-Hawk crew more versatile and supportive if/ when they land on the ground.

Since Glenda's bio specifically calls her a "helicopter co-pilot", I typically have her riding shotgun with Lift-Ticket.
