This says 1/14 scale, but looks like it would still work with the 6" scale "G.I.Joe: Classified" line. It does not open, but could be used for display alongside the figures.

Classified collectors say it is too small for the 6" figures. Really, this thing is a complete miss. Making a Joe vehicle that doesn't work for any scale Joe figure isn't something anyone wants. If they'd done anything besides slap a new thin plastic skin over their existing RC bodies you can at least try to make it work.

Does it look super bad with 1/18th Figures? I just imagine this painted in the Nok colors...

At 1:14, it is closer to Bruder scaled vehicles. So instead of a jeep sized vehicle you end up with a large gen 1 humvee sized monster truck. Not incredibly way off, but for all the things it isn't and can't do, you're better off putting an actual VAMP body on an RC frame. It isn't a good RC vehicle (2 wheel drive that can't handle dirt, grass, or hills), doesn't hold figures, and even the missle turret doesn't move. It looks great on shelves and that is about as good a compliment as anyone can give it.
