Me ending up signing up on the forum here was an aftereffect of a couple of e-mails I sent to Bob commenting on how the 'variable geometry' hoverbikes that Doug comments on having had in the past sounded a lot like some MASK toys (and I pointed him to the silliness of the Ninja Storm hoverbike, where the whole wheel assembly spins around like a rotor *under* the bike).
Well, I just spotted a more *current* edition...Bob, hie thee to a Toys R' Us or similar store and find the Motorcycle/Hoverbike from the 'Sigma Six' toy line (it's supposed to be the latest version of GI Joe). The front wheel mounting is an odd fork, which rotates from vertical to horizontal in the 'hover' mode...and the back fork (and wheel) splits in half and flattens out to the sides...
Hmmm. Now that I look at the title again, I wonder what would happen if Doug landed in the middle of Megaforce. Probably help the 'Egg' *design* the Delta Mark 4, if nothing else. :-) Not to mention the 'inverse photosensitve' coloring materials...
