Precisely why I didn't buy it. If someone wanted to part with a legit PAVE (with pilots) for a (relatively) reasonable price, I'd jump on it. I sold my Army BH to Loaded so he wouldn't get raped on ebay.

I need to do something to my BH's.. they look so nekkid without anything done to them.
Though they really are a space hog with all four blades attached.

Oh I don't think I'll go the full sensory package overhaul.. but some weathering/usage marks.. maybe some actual gear inside etc.
Not a fan of the parade-presentation look!

Anyone have a good solution to replacing one of those little... things on the side of the rotor mast? I have no idea what they're called, but one broke on my Huey and it's been lost to Kitty Jones's locker I fear.
Hmm I'll have to check, it's the one with the launcher on the front (always thought that was uglier than the Slicks), and I can't bear to display it broken so it's been sitting in storage.
Really? I never noticed. I'll have to take a gander when I get home. I just put the rocket pods on the slick and it looks nice to me. I do want the "Easy Rider" one, but hell if I am paying $300 for one.
I love the Hogshead version, myself. I only wish that the grenade launcher was removable in a way that wouldn't require massive mods to the nose.
Also had to make sure these didn't fly off..

In sad Helicopter news I can't find the blades for my Kiowa (Operated one) or Little Bird. Lord knows where they got off to.
I did! I do still have that. Haha. That was such a long time ago.. and I was drinking.. and cut myself.. wow..
Hughes-designed helicopters, just say that.
They use all the same parts, but Bbi actually did a new fuselage. I reckon they could have easily forced the MD into an inaccurate MH.That it's sad.
Dunno which is worst, either. The Hughes-designed ( ) one would look okay blade-less as a bird undergoing maintenance.Gotta find that Kiowa's set, though. Not a fan of the real thing but it is an awesome 1:18 model.
Good news! Found the blades for all the helos! They were stuck in a bin.
Bad news..

Ended at $167!! For a KIOWA!! I remember the day when Super Cobra's were ending for that kinda scratch.
Saw a F/A-18 go for over $300 bones (MIB).. guess the demand is still out there.
