The new Nerf toys are great and I found one that would work for a dropship or perhaps a VTOL depending on how it is converted. Against 15mm link link 28mm link link link Here is a link to the whole set… I hope. A couple of them could work as perhaps orbital defenses or artillery or who knows what else. If anyone has either of the other two launchers I'd love to see them.

Only the one in your pics is useful I think. Needs a bit of dressing up. But thanks for the heads up.

I have dug out some of my bits and have been test fitting some parts to see what I can make it look like. I hope to have a completed vehicle this weekend to show off. It's a really strong base to start with I think.

Fantastic find! I think you can add a turret right where the "NERF" logo is though. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

Even if not, I'm always a sucker for cool Nerf toys. Now I've got a hankerin' for a Happy Meal.

WOW! That would make a cool Hevay Lift Shuttle basis in 6mm as well – But our Maccas are putting out cardboard Ronald figures at present. Damn . . . it.

Various launchers good for doing H.G. Wells Little Wars style games with plastic 54mm space figures.

Well, I saw one of the toys recently here in NZ but not froma Maccas store – Anybody got a link to someone who sells them on eBay or somwhere? My first few searches were fruitless.

Looks neat, but I wonder if you could paint it?
