Yeah, I see the potential there, bigger engine, get rid of the stupid spikey bits, add a gun or two and you're away  ;D

You can't throw away all the "stupid spikey bits"! They're the best bits, especially the twin prong out the front! Just think of the Mad Scientists lab you can put together with all that!

Too many exclamation marks, the science is getting free....
So many projects..... so little time.......

Yes, the doomwheel looks very nice and definitely has VSF potential. But I better don't look at their price tag ...

There is a Star Wars mini of a mono-wheeled vehicle that might be worth chopping up and converting.

Agreed. The General Grevious monowheel is going to be a much better deal. I saw a few a while back for around the $10 mark.

Might be ok if it wasn't for the very expensive cardboard box that it comes in - that probably doubles the price.
