It seems very very meh to me. Looks very unfinished and like some toy I can pick up at Walmart. I bet it looks a lot better painted up, have to wait to see the finished product.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. |

Cheaper than FW, but still a tad overpriced for my tastes. If it looked more definitely from the AT-43 universe I'd be tempted to pay the premium, but when it doesn't look that different from a "real world" Hummer or Kubelwagen then that's what I'd rather buy and save the cash.
Still its a reasonable execution if somewhat cramped and unimaginative for sci-fi.
I'd rather buy the Karmans' sky-buggy affairs generally. Those are SCHWEET!
Still, at least they've started. Hopefully they'll come up with something more worthy of attention next time.

After seeing Mongoose's Skinnies, I've stopped asking
for imaginative science fiction.

It has a very scratch built look to it. And not in the good way like the vast majority of the stuff posted by dakkaites.

Yeah, I am not sure how skinnies got past anyone and made it to market. In the 80s that might have flown, but now?
Yep, the Karmans stuff is sweet.

Not that great, actually looks a lot like the old 80s GI Joe buggy.

It's not unique enough for me. The appeal of AT-43 was
the striders and different army concepts.
A jeep?
No thanks.

It's kinda cool but the Halo Clix Warthog, which has a similar scale, only costs $20.

Old Crow Models do a similar vehicle which is equally cramped but weighs in at only 1/6th of the price....

Level of detail is probably comparable, especially if you get the upgrade sets.
