I just picked up 6 of them and while they might look a LITTLE on the small side at first glance, they're close enough that the cockpit looks like it could fit a single humanoid pilot abet in somewhat right conditions. I think they'd be great as VTOLs or Starfighters for some alien faction. Personally I think they'd look great with Crusties or Sprugs link I could |

I like it… Haven't seen the movie. Yet…. |

I really like that thing, I can see it working for all kinds of things, but it does seem a bit small, (based on the package) I'd love to see how it looks with some 15mm figures. (or anything you have laying about) |

Looks like it'd make a nice flying HK drone too. |

I use mine with the Manths from Rebel Minis link |

As you can see, I'm still trying to figure out how to take pictures that don't suck. :p |

GREAT FINDINGS! I will go to store tomorrow! |
| Lion in the Stars | 12 Sep 2012 9:13 a.m. PST |
Oh, my. Totally going to have to buy some, now! |

Might even work with some of the 28mm "small Greys" on the market. |

I got lucky. They were having a BOGO sale when I bought 'em. They're great, and as you can tell by the pic, scale well with the Viper. So what do you think would be a good "nickname" for them? Lobsters or Prawns? :p |

Grampus, Cuttlefish, etc… |

Are these for sale in the racks with regular hot wheels cars? Where did you get it? That would make an awesome flyer for my 10mm sci-fi forces. |

I got 3 from Asda in the UK for £1.00 GBP each. |

Wow! I haven't seen those yet….But then again, HWs have sucked in my 'hood for a while now. Think I may have to hoard those a bit. |

They're on the racks mixed in with the regulars. To make things easier I'll describe the packaging a bit to make it eaiser to find without looking at each one. Blue pack, orange stripe thing which I think is standard for Hotwheels.On the top it has a small black strip that says "The Dark Knight Rises" and on the bottom, on a level that you could actually look bnetween the rows and see them it says "2012 New Models" |

Thanks! I'll have to hit the big box stores next week. What store did you find yours at? |

I was looking forward to this… but I don't think they're quite big enough for my taste. Yes, they could be remote drones or what have you. But I will keep my eyes out for a 1/72 kit or so, I think. |
