I had the early jeep and trailer, the Adventure Team helicopter with cobra and idol and the funky airboat that came with the hammerhead manta ray. I hated that boat as with a Joe in it, it was barely above the water and a wave in the pool would cause go to take a swim. At least I didn't have the Skyhawk like another friend did which promptly ejected his Joe at max altitude and then got stuck in a tree.Lancenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-74245824565336828832011-12-08T10:42:27.355-05:002011-12-08T10:42:27.355-05:00Man I wanted one of these!Man I wanted one of these!Retro Houndhttp://www.retrohound.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-32621012456678594582011-12-08T07:07:20.898-05:002011-12-08T07:07:20.898-05:00Had this and I believe it's still in my mom...Had this and I believe it's still in my mom's attic.
