Could be a toy based off of some sort of Japanese anime cartoon or maybe a RPG miniatures game? I've never seen that tank design before.  :blink:
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

Based on the name its another interpretation of the, oh so ludicrous, P.1000 'Ratte' uber-tank concept.

B777LR

It's Hitlers Heer ยด46 project to build a landkreuzer or landslachschiff. 11 inch guns, if i'm not mistaken. Note the flying Japanese tanks from the same seller ;D

Yep, uses a modified turret from a Panzerschiffe.

Looks like it's Gashupon - originally sold with Bubble Gum in Japan (everything from 1/144 scale tanks, to 1/6th scale Weapons).
Judging by the name, it could be one of those Nitto SF3k(? not sure about that, but it involves a lot of Suits)

That would be overkill, any bomber ... dive or level, would do.

Could a Tempest or Typhoon do it with cannons? Or rockets? I suppose the top armour on the engine deck would be rather thin.
Anyhow, you could stop it just by destroying the fuel trucks.

ISTR reading that Typhoons (and even P-47s) had success against German armour when their rounds richocheted off the road surface and penetrated the thin belly armour

But against this beast, I reckon even a 60lb rocket would do enough damage to throw a track or jam a turret.
