When I saw Right of Might's Rolling Thunder Clap I knew I had to build my own vehicle based around that cannon. So a year and a half or so later I finally got around to it. I will also include some WIP pictures as an exclusive to Joecustoms critique viewers. Hope you guys like it.

The custom features include four side mounted machine guns, I made those from Scrap Irons missile boxes and Thunder Machine gun barrels. A drivers hatch and window frames made from styrene. I used Stun wheel caps and added a small front gun from the Rattler. I really hated how the original one is so long. I also built up the side gun chair so the guy doesn't look like he could easily fall out.

That thing must have incredible brakes to withstand the blast force, otherwise it needs a retractable piece (spade, trail, etc) out the back to absorb the recoil.

It may actually be more realistic than the original though. Launching ballistic missiles from inside a vehicle would probably be a one time deal and leave little left.

I like it. I think just a few blobs of dark grey camo could help it out a bit but the build is perfect.

It's a good idea and I had thought of it. Maybe someday but for now I like the grey. I almost didn't post these pictures because the sun makes it look more blue. It's actually a really dark grey.

If it were real the recoil would probably rip it in half.

It's a cannon,it's like a portable Battle Ship gun. But yeah I imagine Cobra drives it to a perfect firing location then it unleashes it's massive fire power on the Joes. It could also change locations but I don't imagine it could fire the cannon while moving.The secondary weapons are too make sure it gets where it needs to go.

Thanks. I've been working on this for a long time now. I was close to painting it Crimson Red.
