I knew the fin can was all new—several new features including the launch lug loops, the longer pins/sockets so you can press it together (and it will stay), and the tabs that lock the fin can into the slots in the body tube.

I wasn't sure about the shock cord anchor bits (and didn't look too closely at my re-release Air Walker to compare). But since it and the Dark Zero (and according to the instructions the just-released Terra GLM) have similar parts but one doesn't use the clip on the inside, I wondered if they were the same parts. I see the Terra GLM's part numbers are different for the shock cord mount bits. No big deal either way.

The net result is a nice looking model that requires no glue to assemble, yet does need to be put together beyond the usual ARF/RTF. I'm eager to see how it flies.

Now you need to do one with all the plastic parts in clear rather than translucent blue, to give the Ghost Chaser a Ghost to chase.... .
