Ogre Mk IV – the missile OGRE. |
| CPT Jake | 08 Jun 2010 3:21 p.m. PST |
The blower tanks from the Hammer's Slammers fiction. Close second are the Bolos. |
| Jovian1 | 08 Jun 2010 3:23 p.m. PST |
The Bauhaus Grizzly: picture Cool model for 40K too. The French Char Lourd F1: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FCM_F1 Fun fictional tank for a French offensive in late 1940-41 if the Germans hadn't invaded yet. |

Has to be Thomas The Tank

The Strogg 'Desecrator' from the 'Quake' game series… energy-based all-terrain (and amphibious) repulsor lift… plasma cannon… pintle-mounted secondary energy weapon… all done with Borg-style Necro/robotic dead-tech. link |
| Ivan DBA | 08 Jun 2010 3:30 p.m. PST |
The Akuyaku (it was the original "inspiration" for the Bauhaus Grizzly, to be charitable about it--frankly the Grizzly is a rip-off). link link |

I kind of like the tank from Halo, but Bolos are my favorites! |
 javelin98 | 08 Jun 2010 3:40 p.m. PST |
All the Bolos
OGRE Mk III, IV, and V
Tron hovertanks
The tanks from Battlefield 2142 |
| Rhoderic III and counting | 08 Jun 2010 3:45 p.m. PST |
The Tachikoma and the Fuchikoma. Some might protest at my calling them tanks, but I do honestly think they are (baby) tanks despite being walkers. They're described as tanks (however inconsistently) in their Wikipedia articles, among other places. link
link And along the same lines, I also dig the Coyote Tankstrider from the Heavy Gear setting. It has both walker and tracked movement modes. picture |

If the Tachikoma/Fuchikoma don't qualify, how about their cousin Bonaparte? link Adorable little treadlayer, although not as cool as the Bolos and Ogres are. |
| ming31 | 08 Jun 2010 4:05 p.m. PST |
Slammers blowers
Ogres( all marks) |

LNE has it's points… |

Have always liked the 40K Eldar Grav tank(I am not a Panzee player BTW).They seem to get the best paint jobs too. picture |
| Coyotepunc and Hatshepsuut | 08 Jun 2010 4:16 p.m. PST |
Destroid Monster from Macross. Yeah, I know it wasn't *exactly* a tank, but it was painted olive drab, right? |

The tank in Tank Girl, don't have a link but I seem to remember from the movie it was pretty cool.

Thomas is a Tank ENGINE ! And he's not really fictional – IIRC all the (original) series engines were based on real engines. The adventures may have been exaggerated a tad. |
| Pictors Studio | 08 Jun 2010 6:13 p.m. PST |
I think my favourite is the Tau hammerhead. |

"The adventures may have been exaggerated a tad."
I am shattered  But if I was you I wouldn't go around telling people Thomas is real. |

Bolos all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Calico Bill | 08 Jun 2010 10:58 p.m. PST |
Mk.I Landraider It just looks mean, even if totally impractical. After that, any of the "Renegade Legion" FASA tanks. |
| NoLongerAMember | 09 Jun 2010 2:41 a.m. PST |
Second the Akuyaku! link Also the tanks from 'Things to Come' YouTube link around the 6:58 and 7:13 points in the clip. |

Any of the self-aware Bolos. |
| Katzbalger | 09 Jun 2010 5:55 p.m. PST |
Plenty of neat ones out there. I love the descriptions of the Slammers Blowers, the clean lines of the Ogres, and the elephentine look of the Halo Scorpion, but you've got to love the Mk XX Bolo. "For the honor of the Regiment." Rob |
| doug redshirt | 09 Jun 2010 6:18 p.m. PST |
All the tanks from Valkyria Chronicles, especially the tank for the good guys. |

Good poll! I've always been partial to the Shadowsword from the 40K universe, and the Behemoth from Battletech. |
