I picked up two of each of these fanciful plastic tanks at dirt cheap prices. The bigger tanks cost around a dollar each while the smaller ones went at around 25 cents. The hulls and part of the turrets seem to be based on real world tanks but the main guns and accessories shout "Sci Fi". They've been primed black and will soon join the ranks of my 28mm sci fi armies. Check out these figs here and here.
First, the bigger tank has a three barrel assembly as it's main armaments. Two smaller tubes flank a huge "powergun." A 28 mm Void figure is shown to show the scale of each model.
The smaller tank seems to suit a light tank role but it has two main guns as well as two more guns at turret sides.
The details are crisp, even exaggerated and may take shading and weathering really well. I'll be choosing a camo scheme for these soon, maybe inspired by what the troopers were painted in. All in all, a very good buy:)

They look great where id you get them?
ReplyDeleteGot these at the bargain toy department of Trinoma, a local mall here in Metro Manila. These were made in china and are marketed as tanks for the 54mmish green and tan army men -- recasts f course:)
ReplyDeleteFine looking additions indeed. Will you try to spruce them up at all? Ream out barrels, add some stowage and stuff? I've seen some equally good stuff here in Athens, but not as cheap unfortunately.
