Very very nice (and dangerous...)  :D

(I don't want to hijack your post but) I just want to share my (walkerish) version (apart from the gun and smokestack it's just a piece of a Disney Atlantis toy):

Nice work. You chaps make it look so easy!

I recently got hold of some Disney Atlantis toy parts through E-Bay, now I know what to do with them!

What a kewl... thing!

You folks over here on the VSF section simply do not cease to amaze me with your outrageously inventive contraptions.

Darn, I hope this VSF stuff isn't contagious...

Can you buy the armourcast treads seperatly or do you need to buy a full model to get them?

Nice one! Maybe its something about this weekend that everyone wants to publish pictures of their great VSF vehicles. Anyone else going to show pics of their new projects?

Which reminds me - I must photograph my latest VSF vehicle this weekend. :)
