These are currently available for pre-order through Locker Toys https://www.lockertoys.com/key/
I ordered 2 figures. Total cost plus shipping was $63.32 USD. The owner said over at hisstank that these should be available through Boss Fight Studios for around $26 each.

Thanks for this tutorial! My attempts at painting eyes have been horrible, except for one custom using a custom Wookie resin head sculpt. I've got several custom head sculpts I acquired in a parts lot. I just need to take the time and practice on them. I'm sure it's one of those practice makes...
Thanks! The official Hasbro Rattler is pretty sad in comparison to scale with the Bbi A-10. I get that it's not actually 1:18, but man is it an improvement compared to the size of the Rattler.

I imagine the wingspan would be huge! I have the Bbi 1/18 Apache helicopter and have never inserted the rotor blades because of how long they are. They would make it impossible to display on a shelf.

So, once you have the Hind completed do you plan on making molds and resin casts of the parts? The cockpit is just incredible! And the canopy is ingenious. Not sure I could commit price wise to the kit. I'm more interested in a larger scale Hind than the Bbi toy. If someone made a larger toy or...
Here are a few pics of my custom Cobra Rattler. I modified the Bbi A-10 that was sold at Target last year.
I removed the trigger assembly and gutted out part of the area behind the cockpit to make room for the rear gun pod. I used a pill bottle to make the pod area. The...
I customized this A-10 into a Cobra Rattler. The handle and such are easy to remove. There are screws underneath the plane, and you can remove the trigger/handle from mechanism. The only difficulty I had was removing pieces behind the cockpit to make room for the rear gunner pod. I used a pill...
Not to take away from your project which is amazing! That cockpit is second to none. I noticed that you've mentioned using the 1/35 Trumpeter model as a base. Do you (or anyone else) have pics of the 1/35 Trumpeter compared to 4" action figures? I know the scale will be off 1/35 compared to app...
I had posted these pics on the JoeCustoms FB page. But in case anyone was interested in customizing the new (re-released) BBi Hind here are some exploded views for you:
It would take some heavy customizing (like adding styrene) to make 2 figures fit in the cockpit.
More pics can be...
The Avery paper is already milky looking before you print. The Testor's clear water decals look clear when you apply, but once the water dries their is milky look to the decal - definitely not "crystal clear" as these others advertise.

I looked to see if there was a thread about this already and didn't notice one.
Not so much trying to bypass such sites as cobrastickers or rattlerrepros, but I am interested in making my own custom decals on clear decal paper. I've searched the various brick-n-mortar office supply/hobby...
