Recent work on an Exodus Wars project revealed how best to tackle this guy, specifically the wheels.
Edit - and I still need to figure out how the dude gets into the operator cabin.

I wonder how the dudes get in the little truck. You know, the one with the umbilicus. |

By the looks of him, that dude's main limitation on getting in is his lack of legs, rather than the design of the cabin. |

I like the chassis. It could be the basis of all sorts of civilian (possibly ad-hoc armed) vehicles. Please make it available separately from the rest of the assembly! |

Maybe the side window opens up like a DeLorean. |

Neat ideas, gentlemen. I also have a desire to make a fuel tanker or something else like that. Jfrk9mp can remind me. |

Speaking of which, does anybody have any pictures of the FW tanker? Edit - found the IG trailer/crawler in the 2005 catalog, but the pictures are really small. |

Hatch on top. Or am I overthinking this?

Or for that matter, one of the side panels. Perhaps I could keep the top hatch, and "end users" could simply file it off, if not desired. |

I feel like I'm a kid again, watching Thunderbirds for the first time. You make this look far too easy. (Though I have to ask: what kind of effect would it have in-game?) |
