OK, so maybe it's just a replica, but come on! AIRWOLF! How awesome would it be to own Airwolf (even if it were just a copy of the original bird). A friend invites you over for a BBQ and you ask, "How big is your lawn?" He asks why, and you tell him not to worry about it – then you land in his front yard in frickin' Airwolf and fly away with his girlfriend. Kid getting bullied in school? Pick him up in Airwolf and see what happens. If he doesn't get instant street cred, you can always just waste the place with your Sidewinder missiles (not included).

Of course, it would take a lot of work to perform any of these heroic acts, because this bird doesn't fly. According the seller, Steve Stull (whoever the hell that is) did the work, and it took him five months to build, using a Bell 222A airframe as a starting point. The "Wolf" was apparently made for a helicopter museum in Georgia that never took off (!), and now all the exhibits are being sold. I wonder if they'll be unloading the chopper from Riptide next.

More pictures from the eBay auction, where last we checked the bid was $38,900 and the reserve hadn't been met, after the break.
