I have one of these, working on a shadow custom at the moment as it looks good next to the shadowtrak... Going to use a different gun on top maybe but its a pretty decent vehicle... Tough too, esp after I kicked it down the stairs...

the back plug hole on 25th figures is higher and the stick is thinner. You could saw off the old peg and glue a new rod. That's what I'll be doing with vintage packs to make them fit newer figures.

yeah, ive been doing this too, works out ok, ive even had to move the pegs on a couple of 25th packs on 25th figures too, on some figures the hole seems to be lower too.
i think this pack would work fine on an original flash.
