Anyone going to pimp the ROCC?

Hey guys,

Just curious, what will be the fate of all these ROCC toys going out of HTS?

I'd like to turn one into a lavish BAT transport and mobile repair facility, seems like something the BATS would need in a prolonged rebellion,

Yeah, I'm pimping mine, but I don't know what it's gonna be yet. I took the turret out and added it to my regular ROCC - I also gutted the launch pad out (that thing was just dumb, IMO) so we'll see where that takes me...

So you still have the extra bird and the launch pad set up?....

The launch pad I had to chop up to make the hinged roof work (tried to do it without the pad, but it wasn't working.) Still got the bird - you want it?

I actually got the little jet from Segnett a while back, I've been trying to pythonize it for about 3 weeks, to varying degrees of failure.

So chief, how hard is it to remove this launch pad?

Got one but haven't decided what direction to go with it yet.

Depends on how clean you want it to look - I just took an Exacto-saw to mine and chopped it off right at the top of the little "escape hatch" opening, so I'd have 2 screws to hold it to the rest of the roof. Looks kinda crappy now, but I plan to add some stuff to it and make it more functional.

I'm going to use mine as a mobile command center for Oracle. In my verse, Gijoe is just an extension of the JLA and the Avengers. Oracle coordinates with all factions so she needs her own command center.

If Oracle wasn't still Batgirl in my 'verse Joe, I'd totally steal that idea. But it does give me some ideas..... thanks!

I've got one painted up in Cobra blue, just need some Cobra decals and its done. Got another to use as a vehicle transport. Still working on that one. And my third got an extra gun turret and is strictly Joe.

MS, are you going to explain how the joes lost their blueprints to cobra,

Maybe MARS made both of them,

I want to try the BAT facility on wheels, see if I can get that working, lol, I'll have to try and procure an exacto saw, CHief.

I'm taking the gun from my extra to fully load my regular ROCC. I don't know what to do with the extra afterwards. I've got about 5 transports that I'm currently working on so I really don't need to make it be a transport. I might make another "MASK" idea. Something sort of like that tanker. A vehicle that looks like a transport but opens up to be a mobile missile silo.

I'm calling it the LOCC , Lunar operations command center. I need an extra gun turret and the mechanism for those of you who might want to part with it. I could also use another antennae, otherwise it's a lazy bastard mobile moon command center! Thats the only way I could reconcile the internal launch platform, right in the back of the control room. "Light fuse and get away!"

I'm pimping my extra one out to be my Adventure Team command vehicle. I don't expect it to be much more than some AT logos added to it though.

I'm debating on getting any more of them.

I know I need one for the extra turret/Long Range figure.

I was thinking of having one for the Oktober Guard (maybe a gray or tan).

I would love to do one completely in black for my UniSol transport if I ever get around to using all those J-CVD Guile heads...

Other than that, the only other idea was for a "Shaggin' Wagon" for my 'Brawlstin Powers' custom. Shag carpet, lava lamps, rotating circular bed, YEAH BABY!

I'm surprised nobody has suggested making one in the traditional Optimus Prime colors, given how topical the Transformers are these days...

Anyone going to pimp the ROCC?
