Hover Trucks
« on: May 10, 2009, 10:12:14 PM »
These are made with tape deck parts, the racks out of two deceased DVD players, and the undersides of two office chairs. The safety rails are 1/2" square screen.

These are deliberate homage to the hover-vehicles in "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow", as they are great places for heroes and villains to engage in fisticuffs.

You, sir, are not allowed to attempt a takeover of the solar system until your octopus sobers up.

Those look awesome!  If I'm not mistaken I think I see the disposable tips from a physician's ear scope.  What would we gamers do without those things?!

Who makes those white troopers?
