Posted: Thu Nov 28, 2013 9:21 pmCheck out this variant...
The box is clearly different, but what really sets it apart is its size.
Most of the Daiya toys in this line are a little under 9 inches long.
This one is over 14 inches long and is on a much larger scale.
There's a battery operated variant of this larger toy as well.

Thank you for posting. Another one I need for the collection.
Who would have thought that the Chinook would still be in combat 50 years later (I know its supposed to be a CH 46 but it looks like a CH47 to me)

Posted: Mon Dec 02, 2013 10:02 pmThe longevity of some helicopters is pretty amazing, but I guess you have to chalk that up to inherent limitations in design (at least in part)... It's hard to top some of these tried and true airframes.
