Saw this while Christmas shopping, I doubt it's scale compatible but could maybe be hollowed out? I've never seen a toy Herc so am very curious. Does anybody have anything from this range?

Paint it red, with skull and crossbones, and then take it back within 16 days. Go on. dare you?

you could get away with a few alterations, but painting it red might be pushing it. Heard a few cases of people taking back 25th figures with beat up vintage versions stuck back in

Had these people escaped from Fife or even worse Aberdeen?

Got me excited then, Chopper would look great in a Joe sized C-130.

A 1/16 fat albert would probably fill a dining room table! It would be great to have one though.

Not wanting to abandon the project, this may be a compatible scale.
It's just the instrucitons though, and I know nothing about building from scratch...
