Well, I made this an hour, and don't say "It looks kinda crappy" because that's what they looked like in the late 40s and 50s. I made this for my brickfilm series as well as the Brick Arms Army Builder Contest.

It looks "random"..

But of course I can't really judge, seeing I don't know the source material.

Love the helicopter propellers though!

Actually I did use his cockpit design, but he said it was OK. And then for the body I mixed the bell 61 and the Hughey together to have a troop transport that has a rickety antique look. And the copter blades are a popular design.

Oh and it's a boat, too, ya know! Razz

PM, the US never used helicopters as troop transports during WWII...
And what weapons are these? They look like Sci-fi weapons.

DP, the first copter used as a transport was designed in the late 40s and was built in '53. But in my series, the humans capture alien equipment and use prisoners to help them use it. So, in my film, they get helicopters a few years earlier and they have designed assault rifles mimicing the aliens. But they are expensive and few and are issued to only to the elite.

The propellers look out of place and too small, the guns o the side are out of place, the wheels are messed up, cockpit too spacey...

Oh and Hazel's weapons look crap, too thin and too much detail, they don't fit with LEGO.

Small chopper=small blades. And it's a tandom (I believe that is the right word) chopper so the blades are like that. Cockpit too spacey? Well it can barely fit a fig...

And they're crappy because they have too much detail? Ok...
