Tyrants of Wind Scout Patrol Prototype, Part 2

Greetings fellow Air Raiders fans, A while back I posted a picture of the Scout Patrol prototype(see here), a Tyrant of Wind playset that was part of the canceled 1988 line. The set was designed and built by Bill Cooke who was part of the R&D department. Well, I spoke with Mr. Cooke recently and……

Air Raiders Fan Art, Part 2

There was an earlier post (here) discussing some cool fan art posted by Andrew Cosson, the operator of a great Facebook fansite, Air Raiders. The art included head shots of an Air Raider Warrior, an Enforcer, Lieutenant Noble and Commander Dregs. Well, some of that art is up for sale on ebay for those who……

Air Raiders of Wor, Part 2

There was a recent post about some Warlords of Wor/Glyos figures that a toy enthusiast had painted to look like Air Raiders (see here). Warlords of Wor is a line of 3″ action figures that are fully compatible with all Glyos System products. Glyos figures have a peg & socket joint system that makes them……

A New Air Refinery? (Part Two)

So I got the Nano Metalfigs Batcave Collectors Enviroment! in the mail recently. Folks might remember an earlier post about it being a great substitute for the Air Refinery. It came a while ago, but I just didn’t have the time to assemble it and give it a good look until now. Well, it’s here……

A New Air Refinery?

French Dragonwind

Lego Air Raiders

I came across someone named SparkArt on Flickr who had made a model for a Lego Hawkwind. They have a breakdown of pieces and how to build it. There’s obviously some elements that are missing like missiles and the air tubes but overall, I think it looks great! I would love to make that with……

Air Raiders Prototype Figure on ebay

Yep, another prototype is up on ebay. And it’s pretty neat! One of the early “phototype” figures that was used in the first catalog pictures is for sale. I’m curious how quickly they knocked these out. It still looks fantastic but it has a rougher quality to it, plus it has metal pegs to hold……

Enter the world of Airlandia, where the evil Tyrants of Wind have seized control and force everyone to pay tribute to their corrupt and iron-fisted monarchy. Only the Air Raiders, a group……
