Title: Atlantis Chuck Wagon
Post by: Prof.Witchheimer on July 04, 2006, 03:45:17 PM: Lads, i'm playing with toys again. That's the Chuck Wagon from Disney Atlantis movie. A nice piece and i would like to convert it for my scientists but no idea into what. A Super-Cannon disguised as a goods waggon? Or better something for Freak Show? Any ideas?

Then it looks like the basis for a horseless carriage of the military sort. Add a machine gun or whatever, a steering device and a funnel.

I wish I'd bought two now.

Post by: fatbill on July 05, 2006, 10:34:30 PM: I cut off the pole and crawler, and use plyers to remove both Cookies. Then I cover the back bin with plasticard and add a plastic tube for a smokestack. Dremel off the odd bit of cookware, add a some paint and a seated miniature and you have a nice steam wagon. I use them to haul various heavy weapons as a conveyance on GASLIGHT
