Preview: Border Model's new 1/35th scale Soviet Apocalypse Tank!
Apocalypse Tank
From Border Model
Kit No #BC-001
1/35th scale
Price: TBA
In a mix between video games like red alert, and a designer's want to make something REALLY out of the ordinary, Border model are making this, the "Apocalypse" tank, in cold-war Soviet markings. The tank has some interesting features we will look at, as well as a finished example, made by Border's staff (probably somewhere in the future).
Anyone thinking the recent boxart depicting an invasion in San Francisco was far fetched, get a load of this box art work, made by the talented Jason Wong, depicting soldiers with jet packs, rockets, lighter than air ships and a burning New York cityscape in the background! Wowsers...
The model features:
A full, newly tooled pre-coloured Soviet Apocalypse tank. (-no glue required.
Workable track links, rotating turret.
Posable hatches, opening stowage bins.
Movable dozer blade.
Posable twin main guns and MG turret.
Three red/yellow glowing electric lights (like an infra red glow thingy).
Vodka bottles (in 35th scale plastic) are included.
From Border Model, we have a vide of the tank in CAD showing how it all goes together...
