So in case you haven't seen it, here are some pics to whet your appetite for the upcoming year.
Needless to say, I am customizing this bad boy into a Cobra Carrier, and the Quinjet is going to someone in the Joeverse, especially with an included Sky-Cycle!!!

Not meaning to be a nay-sayer, but it look pretty small, if that figure is to scale. I could only see the small catalogue pic though.
It's a cool design if it is large enough...

Oh it is tiny, compared to the FLAGG, the size is apparently 3 feet. That doesn't matter to me however. It is going to be a Cobra Carrier for small aircraft (Flight Pod, CLAW, FANG)
Also, I did a quick check with a tape measure. IF, it is 3 feet long, that is roughly the length of 2 Skystrikers in a row, or 4 Sky Hawks. So while it may not be a FLAGG, it is definitely big enough to be a great playset. It also looks like it has some sort of crane on the rear deck.
Also, I don't think the scale between the figure and the Helicarrier is correct in that picture. I can't wait until Toyfair to see better shots.

3 ft is big enough for me. Space is limited so depending on how this thing looks and if I can hang it from a ceiling will effect my choice to follow canprime leads.
Still, that is a great idea. I'm out of timbits for now or else I'd give you one for the idea. Maybe later, when I can give more. ;)

3 feet is good. That'll work. It looked smaller in the pic to me...

That's very interesting news indeed! If something this big gets released for the Avengers movie, maybe there's hope for larger vehicles for Retaliation?
I don't see this as an aircraft carrier custom (doesn't appear to have the width), but it would make a great starting point for a Landing Craft Tank/Hydrofoil like in the early comics!

I'm holding out hope for a large vehicle/playset. It may not come to pass, but if any year was the year to do it, it would be a movie year.

Oh sweet hell YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, it is small, let's get that out of the way right now. Yes, it is basically a glorified table.
I DON'T CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is probably as good as we will get for Joe/ 3 3/4" for the forseeable future and I can see it going well with Joe/Cobra.
Lots of cannons, actual space for figures to stand (on the sides) and while the control/cockpit is definitely small, it does look like there are a bunch of features we haven't seen in action yet.
Not looking forward to the price however.

nice looking BUT it looks like it is suppose to be part of the SDF-1
