Hello. I haven't posted anything for a long time but this model should find an informed audience here. So here's my Lego brick version of the GI Joe train produced by the Tyco company in 1983... no, there weren't just dinosaurs on earth at the time. If you know this vintage toy (otherwise go look on Google), you'll notice that it was not intended (at all) for the famous 3-3/4 figurines and some enthusiasts could say that therefore it is not a real toy of the line and that it does not touch their nostalgia. But in our bricks world things are different, we builders (yes I'm talking about you), are free to create models from whatever we want and make them compatible with our beloved figurines or any other scale. Anyway, here are the images, I hope you like them... otherwise go buy some Playmobil? ;D
The train have cool features like the deploying container / outpost and access to the caboose interior with communication post. One last thing the locomotive is motorized and can drag the wagons easily, I just need to make a video to show.
