This is a christmas present I made for a friend of mine. It's a Segway for an IG objective marker I made out of a scout bike.

I suppose he could also use it as a standard bearer or sergeant. I'd let him count it as a close combat weapon or something. Let me know what you think!

fantastic and very funny!

Someone should make a rough rider squad on segways.

I'll let someone else make a unit of these guys.

Thanks for the feedback!

I chuckled.

hmm...


-calculates hot much it would be to get parts for a whole unit-

Brilliant!

Ha, genius. I love it!

All I think of is hulk hogan on his show riding around on one of those for some reason. Great stuff btw , love the origonality.

That's so funny! I've yet to see someone do that. You need a whole load now.

I'm pretty sure it's been done, yes.

See me roll on, ma segway......

Nice job!

Ha! I forgot about weird al.

In the future, the epic debate of "Who is better? Kirk or Piccard" wages on like a space wolf trying to open a can of Kibbles and Bits...

Nice !!! Now do an attack segway, too

love it

Nice, what parts did you use for it?

The arms are both marine scout arms (1x scout biker grip arm, and 1x scout arm with bolt pistol).

The standard/flag came from an old Space marine command box, I think.

The large imperial eagle on the flag came from a space marine drop pod (I put black templars on my drop pod, so I had the imperial eagle, imperial fist, ultramarine, and space wolf ones left). These make excellent vehicle and banner flair, I must say!

The segway is mostly bits from scout bikes and space marine bikes.

The "mast" holding up the steering column is a sprue bit from a recent Space Marine Drop Pod I assembled. I also trimmed down some sprue bits for the axel.

The only IG stuff is the head, torso, legs, vox-caster backpack, and hip flair (water canteen, empty knife holster, pouches and grenades).

Very cool and characterful. I too think a unit of those would be friggin awesome.

IG riding around in electric wheelchairs that they can't even sit down in. Sounds about right.

thats a win right there

As long as the guardsmen is still allowed to die standing up then you did a job well done.

Sweet, even better if it had move through cover and relentless, now THAT would be nice.

This thread lacks a certain amount of poop.

Beware, language inside.

Damn. I forgot to add the 3rd wheel. What was I thinking?

Your friend doesnt need an Xmas present. Keep it for yourself and make more. I would be scared if a unit of those came rolling towards me.

Yes, but for the right reasons? o.O

The only thing funnier then these would be marines riding wolves!

Oh my bad...

Power Armor on wolves, now that's just silly.

Just awesome!

Great job! i love it.
