Spider something?

Modeling Subjects Science Fiction

I’m normally out on the aircraft forum but I sometimes cross into the “other” realms [:D] so thought I’d share this model I built years ago. I don’t remember what it’s from, I only remember I paid five bucks at a swap meet and I liked the odd look. I think it came from Japan? I replaced the gun barrel with an aluminum turned one I found in the armor section of my LHS. I added wire handles and the bomb in the rear is from the spare parts box. It’s painted in MM sand and weathered with oils. The spidery legs move too. I hope you enjoy.

Thanks

Cool! Reminds me of the Desert Gunner fromyears ago. Dont know what series this is from either, could be any of a number of Bandai TV show tie-ins. Looks good, very unusual and not something you see daily!

I like it. You wouldn’t be interested in selling it, would you?

That’s a Desert Gunner or a Crab Gunner from the Bandai series “Dougram”. I’m not sure which, but I DO know it’s Dougram.

Lots of the Dougram mechs resurfaced in the Battletech universe.
