Is that thing real or fictional? (Getting hard to tell these days...)

looking at the pics of it, it looks like it could be a real thing, but you are right H, it very well could be a Whiff-in-a-box.

I think it's a whif-in-a-box.

If you look at the following image it includes the script "Military robot designed by Live Resin".

From the look of it they've taken bits from a number of different robot ideas & combined them into this awesome piece of destructive hardware.


BTW, I have the vehicle-mounted .50 cal/40mm version of this;

I wonder if they will bring a 1/72nd scale one out  :rolleyes: The ore I look at it the ore I like it. The vehicle mounted version looks great, and again, 1/72nd scale versions would be brilliant to liven up and old APC or truck.

Kinda O/T, but does anyone else think the LiveResin logo in that image look like the Master Chief from the Halo games? Now there's a ripe subject for kits!
