Nest of Vietnamese Cobra Hatchlings for Special Hobby 72nd Scale AH-G x3 Build

A very early AH-1G 67-15475, Judy in the Sky, with the TAT-102A turret housing a single minigun, no ECS (Environmental Control System) but it did have the newer position lights on the tail boom.


The second is AH-1G 68-17108 VT-26 of HMA-367, USMC. Early tail and classic Cobra head of the Scarface squadron.


The third is a hard choice as there are many worthy options! At the moment, I am leaning towards AH-1G "Pig Pen" 67-15476 operated by C Troop, 1st Squadron, 9th Cavalry Regiment (part of the 1st Cavalry Division). Note the yellowed teeth!

For the third option, I would love to have another M35 (20mm gun) armed or anti-Strela suite Cobra (sugar scoop or toilet bowl exhaust), even both!

I need to identify these as the striping was unique to all as were the sharkmouth schemes.



Others also have both the sharkmouth and anti-Strela suite such as Suzie Q III:



Centaurs M35 armed Cobra. Maybe Gary, @centaur567, might know the identity?




Another candidate with a challenging name and sharkmouth to replicate but M35 armed:


Last, one with both the M35 and anti-Stela suite but no idea if it sported a sharkmouth...


Decisions... decisions!

Why do I always get "Boots a walking" in my head when I see these threads?

Well, @moon puppy ... Here ya' go! Free ear worm!



I might have identified a Centaur... @centaur567, do you recognizer her, Gary?


The Sharkmouth doesn't seem to be completed at the front though but otherwise matches...

Not that I know of. They must have been done after I left. Gary S.

I somehow forgot that Bettie Kay qualifies! M35 and a simple but unique sharkmouth, more like snake fangs!
