Dave, I was looking back a few pages and saw your excellent V.A.M.P. conversion project...it made me think of the cool G.I.Joe stuff I had as a kid...I think my obsession with those action figures carried over to my obsession with miniature war-gaming, etc.
This was one of my favorite vehicles from the good 'ol days. I have lots of fond memories of jumping this thing off the stairs at home!
I think it would make for excellent inspiration for an IG vehicle, or even an Ork buggy!
Glad to see you are still at it!

Wow, thanks a lot Tibbsy! I'm so glad people get something out of this stuff! I really appreciate the comment and look forward to your stuff!
The AWE Striker would be a great Guard vehicle for sure!

Those postapocalyptic veterans would make great IG stormtroopers to go with my Valhallans, but I don't know how I'd convert the lasguns.

Yeah, but then again, even Fallout Lasrifles make that sound we expect from 40k lasguns based on all the fluff

The weapon arms are separate from the pics, so I think weapon swaps would be the easiest thing to do no?

That Schumacher set goes for $50-$80 on ebay! They only had that Licensed Ferrari line out for a very short time. Those are some cool walkers too! I don't really collect older O-ring GI Joes much though, but I do get nostalgic

HA! yeah... they would... indeed... atm they are totally high on star wars tho... but we still have a couple of atlantis stuff too... and there was this mech too:
that was a cool thing to build too...
and yesterday we scored quite a bit too at our local fleamarket... we spent around 50 €s for lego star wars stuff... retal worth was probably double or triple of the amount ... now we have anakin and savage opress and asajj ventress... and my son oskar finally got himself some madalorian fighters.. that set is one of the most sought for sets probably... it is that expensive originally but somehow they have been so popular that you almost can´t pay them on ebay... shops have long ago ceased to sell them anymore... so we were hughly lucky to finally find them.... and that for half of the retail price!!!
by the way... i am curretly at helios... and about to set the tower to blind me

Ok so, as requested, here is a quick look at the Dust Tactics "Warzone Tenement" kit
2 interior boxes packed full of awesome plastic goodness!
click-slide fit system
I can see some amazing things being possible with several of these kits!
It looks like you could even use them upside down for variation
