How badly do I want a RHINO?

Post by The Baron »

I found this review and haven't slept easy ever since. So I thought I'd share my disappointment.

Slap on some SAS stickers and we're away.

They're reduced in the Hasbro sale, which won't ship to the UK. Maybe we should organise a petition for a UK release...

Are you kidding me? This has got nothing to do with good old Action Force. Even to GI Joe standards it sucks. This vehicle might look nice in an Alien movie to transport Ripley and Co. but other than that I would not know a single use for it.

Then it will be an ugly red vehicle. ;)

This vehicle just looks way too manga to me.

It has potential as a nice update on the old SAS jeep in a humvee style go for it Baron.

You know, I am just thinking.......

Slap some missile launchers and machine guns on a Batman Begins Batmobile and you would have something similar.
Come have a look at some of my custom action figures:
