also with that T-34's driving gear on the monster with its weight... also noted that the Chieftain explained in his T-34-85 review. anything exceeding 40 or was it 45 tons, the track guides would just snap.

Good Lord if anyone did it'd be like 4-4.5 feet long! How would it even turn? I'm sure it would throw tracks like crazy.

this thing would need a differential to level each track's speed. although with this size, you'd have the turning radius of jupiter XD
which in the proposal it had like 5 drivers, 1 master and 4 slave drivers

...Sounds like if they did build the real tank... it would wreak havoc probably destroy some buildings roads ..who knows what else
Might be a fun build though...but where the heck would you store it

it would leave trenches in its wake, also for the scaled size version. you can use the garage spot where the car is supposed to be XD and in 1:16 , total length of the beast is 1.340m / 4ft 43?4in
in 10 scale, 2.145m and i'd like to see Armortek would do a stunt in building these beasts XDD

Just realized this wouldn't work for parades either. It would destroy the roads with its weight not to mention trying to get it to go around a street corner! Then there would be the issue of weather or not the streets were wide enough.

Over designed tanks are spooky lol
