Like for instance having the recent Skystriker come with Northop Grumman decals I felt like had to do with licensing. However IDK how you do Joe vehicles (especially the popular ones) and not have them based on real world stuff??? Well as far as ground vehicles go they can make the VAMP, the Wolverine, the Snow Cat, the Mauler (based on a concept tank which never saw service, so it might be borderline), and then...well...how popular were the Havoc and the Mean Dog?Air vehicles: there's the Conquest X-30 and the Sky Hawk and...maybe the Skystorm (like the mauler it was also based on a concept, but there doesn't seem to have ever been a prototype).

FYI - I did pull the Dragonfly story from TNI. Not because I felt my reporting on it was incorrect since all I reported was the guy made the video, or that I am even convinced the guys video is BS (However him turning off comments on it doesn't help his case). I pulled it however because there are to many unknowns about it and even if the Dragonfly part is true, there is to much drama BS going on between the digital artists involved that I really dont want my websites involved in it. If you go to YT you can likely do a search for Dragonfly and find the video yourself and make up your own minds but at the end of the day as far as collectors are concerned it doesn't seem likely regardless of who is telling the truth or not a Dragonfly is happening.

The Dragonfly is pretty much just a Bell AH-1 Cobra helicopter with a different tail and a few other minor differences. This guy's 3D model looks like a Bell AH-1 Cobra helicopter with a different tail and a few other minor differences. Maybe that's why, if they hired him, they decided not to move forward with his design.Could also be that they hired a few different contractors to design a few different vehicles for them to chose from, and they chose to go with a ground vehicle to go up against the Cobra HISS instead of this. Him telling someone who then leaked what the project was may have made that choice easier, but I assumed the next Classified Haslab would have been a Joe ground vehicle anyway. That seems the most logical choice. I don't doubt he said that and that may even have something to do with licensing issues when doing vehicles based on real world ones.

I personally would not be interested in a 3ft dragonfly. I dont see 6inch vehicles being a big part of the classified line. Maybe gunner stations or some diorama type pieces would be easier on collectors wallets and space

20 hours ago, ransomz said:A 6 inch scale Dragonfly would be great. So would a Terrordrome. Not to mention a Thunder Machine. That last one would be my first pick. Yeah, me too. Im actually way more intrigued about the rumored Soundwave x Thunder Machine transformer. 2 of my favorite 80s toys right there..
