    Well, aerodynmaic principles are the same all over the world, and if you have the same mission in mind, it's not impossible that two separate designers would come up with very similar designs.

    Of course, it's not like most of the designs copied were ever really that secret either...

    Something for you Silver Agers, mentioned on a page here--although I think it would look pretty impressive in any comic-book age.


    While the drawing indicates a propeller-driven aircraft, it wouldn't be that difficult, I think, to depict it as jet-propelled.

    Re: Super Transportation

    Why this car isn't a part of the Hot Wheels line I will never know--the Walley Larson LE-1 Groundfighter


    Myself, I would swap out the turbocharged V-8 for a turbojet engine--then I'd have enough power for the blaster cannons, the electromagnetic weapon attractor, the sonic incapacitator, the million-candlepower strobe light ("MY EYES! OH, GOD, MY EYES!!!"), the extendable wings, the hover jets, the bowling ball thrower (who needs a battering ram when you can throw a 300-mph bowling ball at the door?)--to name but a few.

    Still, this car is cool enough without all that stuff I mentioned. Pleas take note--I want this for my birthday. It's at the end of May, so you might want to start saving up now.

    Okay, I'm not a big fan of the movie Avatar, but I thought the vehicles were terrific.

    So here's the:



    Aerospatiale SA-2 Samson

    I thought it could work as a super-agent vehicle as well.

    How about an atomic airship?
    The soviets actually proposed this behemoth, but they forget a critical system: gasbags for lift.

    That's odd, considering that they seem to have included everything else they could think of...?
