I'm looking for playset and vehicle ideas to acomodate my marvel universe and assorted 4 inch marvel toy collection. Primarily, I'm looking for a good substitution for Ghost Riders bike, the Quin Jet, and playsets that could be good for other marvel locations.
If I had the money to blow, I'd get a uss flagg and actually mod it into a helicarrier :P |

Well, anything GI Joe of course- COBRA has a slew of cool vehicles that rock as does Star Wars- some of their more obscure vehicles could be great SHIELD stuff- or modded into it, anyway!
That awesome Fantasticar from their last movie (shown in the MU customs thread) works perfectly for the MU line. |

The GI Joe Defiant Shuttle would make a pretty sweet QuinJet. The Night Raven would make for a nice X-Men Blackbird too. (See links below for pics)

I have a few personal options as I own them and work perfect. The Tron series car is sick, it fits 2 passengers comfortably,it's light up features look nice and would be suitable for a Shield vehicle, also the amp suit from Avatar works amazing it fits Deadpool or Iron man/most MU figures tight and secure.
I've seen a 6'' Iron monger open cockpit figure turned into a sick deadpool battle drone by Jin Saotome, by simply dremeling out the helmet and Obadia inside. Other then this... most Tron, Gi joe, Star wars ,Avatar, A-team, etc... as far as that bike, just go on ebay and search for 1:18th scale bikes, you can find cheap ones from $1-10 that are mini replicas or real bikes.. I found an old Harley for Logan. |

Go down that aisle in Target that's in between the Lego shit and the action figures... they have tons of motorcycles that fit these guys perfectly. There's a few different lines of the Hot Wheels equivalent of bikes.
As for playsets, I'd be interested to hear where some of the peeps around here get those "inner city" and "back alley" playsets I see in a lot of pictures.

As for the Motorcycle, if you can look for the Maisto bike (1:18 scale) they fit well on MU's.. i tried this on my Deadpool and it looks great.. there are alot of different variations of vehicle / bikes depending on ur own preferences and the figure character itself .. hope it could help..

You can't go wrong with the GIJOE R.H.I.N.O. You should be able to find it on clearance somewhere or on ebay for a good price. It looks like something that Cap or SHIELD would use anyway.
