That is a very fun looking "tank", but it is even more overbalanced and goofy looking than a Mech. That's the point, after all.

Old Armorcast model from before the management change, but I don't see it on the new site.

Why not send Armorcast an email and inquire about the model?

Here's a store view of a walker with the same body, though out of stock:

Not sure it ever was sold as a tank, but possible.

Just click on 'Steam Tech Miniatures' to see some of the things that did have those tracks. Obviously, lots of mix and match possibilities.

It looks like Armorcast has brought a good half-dozen of their Steam-tech line back into production.

Good show, that!

Far as I know, most've been languishing since that change of management Rich spoke of.

I seem to recall a few of the 'weirder' pieces up before, but not nearly this many.

While this isn't the first wailing-and-gnashing of teeth about their absence, the coincidence of the post and the reappearance is impressive.

Can't say if it's deserved, but if I were you, Doctor, I'd claim credit!

Well done!

Doug
