Cheers for that Ink

It looks like the buggy stays in the air by sci-fi-magic... nothing a few holes/vents wouldn't sort out.


This thread has been very informative (I thought these vehicles were soft plastic for a start  ).

Thank you

I always figured those things sandwiched in between the wings' upper and lower parts are supposed to be jet engines.
If you only need one, let me know. If you need more, it might be worth having a search on http://www.ludikbazar.com/

Those engines get it going forward but I was hoping that there were some hover jets or something underneath... but it is nice and smooth so adding them won't be a problem.

Thanks for the offer but I think your link is more appropriate (I expect I will want a few) so thanks again .

they certainly do come apart easily, I bought one used off ebay the rear guns were already off and the fin on the hood and one of the forward guns came off during shipping then when I was trying to fix it one of the engines came out.
I intend to use it as a retro sci-fi hot rod anyway.

Thought that might be the case. Make sure to post some pics once the hover buggy armada is ready for take off...
It's quite funny- I bought the Buggies for some Bohkin & Druusch, you might buy them for the Grymn!

Ditto.  Great minds.

I've always had a soft spot for the Karmans (cigar smoking space gorillas, whats not to like ) and have a reasonable sized force, the prices in the UK though are way higher than the rest of the world (yes there is the odd bargain on e-bay now and again but retail wise, a lot more than everywhere else...).

I'll second Ink the Troll's link to Ludikbazar - much cheaper prices than the UK and good shipping times (and unlike Miniature Market in the States, no customs charges).

Postage is high, but the break-even point compared to ebay.co.uk is around 3 boxes of troops.
