1988 Vehicle
Representations
In 88 most of the vehicles actually had a fitting color
scheme right out of the box, surprisingly enough. Imp and B.U.G.G. were the
only two that looked like they might need some attention.
Imp was given the rocket artillery colors to match the
Adder and partially re-colored Detonator to get rid of its Cobra Navy colors.
Since red Cobra stickers are easy to find, I changed out the standard yellow
logo on the front for a red one which looks much better.
For some reason the colors on the B.U.G.G. just seemed
fitting for its body style, but were a bit problematic in regards to project at
first. This was a water vehicle but wasn't an Eels vehicle, so it didn't really
merit the Navy colors. It also is a Cobra Island defense patrol vehicle, and
not a naval attack vehicle so again the Navy colors didn't seem fitting. About
the only vehicle it matched as is was the Water Moccasin, and since it had been
decided that Secto-Viper would take on Copperhead's colors, the B.U.G.G.
matching the Moccasin would be just right. This also meant that the colors
would get to stay virtually unchanged, with only the red parts repainted black.
