Yeah, I think I have enough to be getting on with.

I've a few ideas for these. This first one is for 'Recovery of Materiel (WIP)' , later ones will have tank carriers and hospital vehicles and such.



The figures aren't in the finished piece, just for an idea. I want some smoking soldiers, etc for those.

Only the Truck is a definite. The tank is an older edition metal figure that is smaller than the current style. It is a big truck, but it would need to be to shift a Land Raider, Titan, etc.


I also need to either get a guy in the truck (the truck has no opening doors, or photgraph it so the cab cant be seen or it is obv stationary and the driver is out.

The truck looks wwaaayyy out of scale. I think you should do something about that, perhaps make it so it looks like a massive heavy carrier vehicle instead of an oversized John Deer or perhaps just find another truck.

And their is no way a truck could pick up a tank like that...

There is a reason recovery vehicles for tanks...are tanks or bigger...that truck could never pick up a tank, either it needs to replaced, the rhino needs to be replaced with a sentinel or something smaller, or heavily convert the truck to make it look capable of moving something large. You mentioned it would have to be big to move a Land Raider or titan...you need a super heavy to move a land raider, and an orbital lander (spaceship) to move a titan, a pick-up truck doesn't quite cut it, lol

Also the scale of the truck looks way off as said by Trevy.

And that tank you have there? Its not metal. It is a rhino, the one before the current one, never been metal, though it might have a metal piece (i think i see the old whirlwind dish on the front).

Its a metal whirlwind.

Hmm, the scale for the series (or the truck - more likely now I think on it) must be off, because those troops would touch the floor pedals in that cabin.

Hmm, generally, I'm thinking you're right. I may need to bulk the lifter up a bit or change it to smaller machine collection.... *Deep Think*
