 Re: Zag plane
I wish they'd make that zag on a regular mini size. I don't think there's been a green one yet.

 Re: Zag plane
that would be interesting.
Also does anyone know if there are going to be 2 zag planes released at sdcc? I just saw a picture on flickr with two mini crouching zags. That one and another.

 Re: Zag plane
The problem with the regular mini-zag size is that the sculpt is split in a way that would only show the head.
The reason they created the crouching mini-zag scult was to make a compatible version that would work with charactics vehicle models.
Personally, I like the crouching zag best... shows a little more personality, and the vehicle options make it really fun.

 Re: Zag plane
I really like this one; great colors. It has an old-school feel--though I'm not even sure I know what I'm talking about. but that's how it struck me.
It looks like they made the propellers less sucky.

 Re: Zag plane
It reminds me of a Nutty Mad or a Weird- Ohs type of figure and vehicle. It more specifically reminds me of this Nutty Mad type plane I had as a kid; a weird monster in plane that "flew" by being being spun around in circles with some kite string, and the propeller moved as well. This is a cool toy.

 Re: Zag plane
Yup! This Charactics X Gargamel "Hawk" (Improvement ver.) was offered last June 25--some of us received paypal invoice, some of us did not. I think it was limited??
If I'm not mistaken, this garga plane has an orange base vinyl..and I have seen a fleet of these , I just now can't remember where?

 Re: Zag plane
The first version was way better. There's way too many colors going on with this one. Not my cup o' tea.

I liked the idea but the first one was "too classy" for me, I prefer this one way more. But Gargamel rules, they serve us all. pickleloaf wrote: they should make a plane with a full sized zag Sounds like a motobot custom waiting to happen.

 Re: Zag plane
sometimes garish colors work (sdcc brain from 2006) sometimes not...this is a case of the not for me. the first version just played up the sculpt way better and made it more cohesive.

 Re: Zag plane
I agree the 1st one had a better paint job but this plane is cooler because the propeller spins. I don't like toys fail to deliver the fun. If a toy has wheels they should turn, if it has a propeller it should spin, if it has tracks they should forge ahead.
