Behind the Scenes
The helicopter was a source of embarrassment for the production team. Kenner wanted to market a helicopter toy for the gargoyles, in spite of the difficulty of justifying its presence in a show where most of the main characters can glide. So, Greg Weisman put the helicopter in, and then Kenner decided not to make a toy out of it. A toy called the Night Striker was quite similar, however. [4][5]
