Product Description

From the Manufacturer

M.A.R.S. Industries has developed an advanced hypersonic high-altitude attach and reconnaissance aircraft to rule the skies. Supremely fast and powerful, the suborbital NIGHT RAVEN cruises at a top speed of Mach 6 and deploys stealth technology, making it undetectable to even the most sophisticated tracking systems. Equipped with twin rotary launchers, the NIGHT RAVEN strikes its targets with infrared-guided IRG-42X missiles. Rip-roaring adventure is coming your way, by way of this tough and ready-for-anything NIGHT RAVEN aircraft with electronic lights and sounds! Lower the handle so you can “fly” this jet vehicle, put the AIR-VIPER figure in the cockpit and check your retractable landing gear. Then, zoom off and prepare to use this aircraft’s lock-and-load firing action and two rotating 6-missile launchers against unsuspecting opposing forces on the ground! Includes AIR-VIPER action figure.

My son bought this with his birthday money--he is 7. He absolutely loves it. The sounds are realistic and change with different actions. He is big into the Army and this toy really does it for him. It is durable for him--he is a rough kid. The only complaint I have is the tail wings come off fairly easily but I think some glue would fix that. I would definetely reccommend this toy and would certainly buy it again.

This review is from: Gi Joe Movie 3.75 Echo Vehicle Night Raven with Air Viper (Toy)

The picture on the box front looks great. The picture on the box back looks pretty good. The actual jet looks not nearly as good.

The detail on the jet is not at all good. The color isn't black; it's more like navy. The tail fins and wings snap on. They are a lighter shade of navy than the jet and so look like they are separate pieces. The finish on all the plastic makes it look cheap IMO.

The sounds are great. The jet flyby sound is fantastic as are the firing sounds which include both blasts and bullet ricochets. The alarm beep sound is cool, and the several pilot communication sounds are very good.

Also, you can play sounds simultaneously. So, you can play the flyby and the pilot communications. Or the flyby and the gunfire.

For me, the look of the jet is so bad that the sounds could not redeem it, so I returned the item.

This review is from: Gi Joe Movie 3.75 Echo Vehicle Night Raven with Air Viper (Toy)

I avoided this toy for over a year because of negative reviews. People said that it fell apart too easily or was more blue than black. I saw 2 on clearance for $7 and I said "why not, at least I can see how bad it is." I am almost angry that it is so good. I am angry because people bagged on it and gave it a bad name when there is absolutely nothing wrong with this toy (except for the $30 initial price maybe). First of all, it sure looks black to me. It also seems sturdy as far as toys go. You would really have to play hard with it for the fins to snap off, and even if they do you can just snap them back on. Just tell your kid he can't throw the thing full force, which he shouldn't be doing anyway.
