 Description

Built in the confines of his arctic base, the wicked Doctor Who, together with his numerous skilled workers, created an avian armada. Using intelligence from a hundred different countries, the warlord birthed a swarm of metallic angels. Arming the vessels with gas bombs, the pilots were ordered to head out and capture Kong, the one creature that could mine the precious mineral dubbed Element X.

Reaching the island within a few days, the forces of Who started their assault. Dropping some ammonia filled canisters, the weapons soon weakened the screaming ape. With the gas taking effect, even Kong could not stand against the malice of man. Crashing to the ground, the mass of living flesh was prone and defenseless. Moving in, the Jet Helicopters lowered their steel claw grips, locking on the giant's legs and arms. The machines then took to the air, defying human eyes as they towed Kong onto the awaiting battleship of Who. Then, pulling up dock, they set out to return to their arctic base and their prize: Element X.
