Has this been asked before? Assuming the molds are still available, what Kenner/Hasbro Star Wars vehicle or playsets would you want folded into Joe canon and released as a Joe toy? What faction and paintjob would you give it? Olive Drab Republic Gunship for BattleForce 2000? Black with red trim COBRA AT-AT? Dreadnok Droid Tank?

I think most are just too recognizable without some new tooling. That's why I'm impressed when I do see customs that manage to make them look "new".

The Cobra mobile fortress from Resurrection, for example, with the HISS front was excellent.

70s Death Star play set. Give it a different gun and paint scheme and it's a Terror Drome module.

The 70s Hoth play set would also make a sweet arctic or desert outpost.

Any of the mini rigs would be perfect for Cobra.

I had the MLC-3 and MTV-7 mini-rigs. They were great opponents for the Armadillo

I keep seeing Finn's Landspeeder.

Cut the front end off and see if it could be bashed onto an AWE Striker lower body.

When I was a kid, I used a Snowspeeder for my Joes and thought it worked well as a funkier snowmobile. I could still kind of see it working.

The STAP from Episode 1 really seems like it could fit in with Cobra.

Hell, think of the MTT with a big-ass COBRA sigil on front and deploying BATs.

I did want to get a Republic AV-7 Mobile Cannon to make a Thunderclap v2.

The ARC-170, Jedi Turbo Speeder, Scout Tank w/Battle Droid, Republic Assault Submarine, Republic Scout Speeder, Republic Recon Fighter, MMT Drone, and Fleet Dropship to name a few...

Imperial troop transport for an iron grenadier vehicle
Maybe replace the slide in troop slots for one long battle platform?
