This was inspired by my previous custom the Wombat. I decided to build another vehicle out of the rear section of the Mean Dog. This time I kept the original chassis and converted the entire drivers area to allow for a proper seat and functional hatch. I also chopped and reshaped the slopped front end. I added armour around the windows and rally lights to give it more of a truck look. The missile launcher in the rear is removable and has a storage area in the back.

That is absolutely fantastic.

I love seeing the WIP pics. They really highlight the work you put into them. How are you doing the hinges for the hatch?

Saw this on FB and thought it was fantastic. It has a big, mean, futuristic look to it that is so aggressive.

There is a real life all terrain vehicle that looks very similar (that travels over land and large bodies of water). I was just looking at it earlier so coming across this seems like it was meant to be.

Thanks. It’s just two plastic rods, one fits inside the other. The bigger one is attached to the lid and the smaller rod is glued down on the ends only. This way you can paint everything and it still opens without chipping. It’s super simple and works great.

I like it a lot better without the missiles too. They were an after thought, that’s why they come out. It also has a trunk in the back for storage under the flat bed.

That super cool, I’ve seen some of those before. I’m always looking at different vehicles for inspiration.

Same. Which is odd for me as , for as long as i can recall, I've been a "figure over vehicle" collector. Dianauts changed all of that.

I've been a bit OCD about rc tracked vehicles that can accommodate action figure drivers for about a year now. Videos like the one above and custom build pictures have kept the interest high.

Your vehicle looks like it shows up in the first 30 seconds (and later).

That’s a great way of doing it. I may have to try it

Dang, I just sold one of these rear sections yesterday on eBay. This looks factory fresh!

Cool!
I´m normally not a fan of all black vehicles, but this one I like.
