For all those who've not outgrown Mammod steam roadrollers, and other pricey modeller's wish list items from the 1950s and 60s, here's the Tanker's perfect crossover model: the RC steam powered tank.
The Youtube creator is also an entertaining eccentric, as well as accomplished small-scale engineer!

LOL, as they say these days, Shaun..although I try to refrain from using that term! I think the General (H.W.S.N.B.N) would approve of this one; but all the more so for this creator's 'Nuclear hammer tank' ... as it's even painted in the General's cherished pink livery :crazy: :lolno: :lolno:

Thanks Roy, I reckon you are right (H W M N B N)would be delighted at this piece of mechanical lunacy and not just for its colour.
It rather aptly reminds me of all those Christmas presents we both give and get that have no real purpose other than to amuse for which as a child my parents forced me to write lengthy letters of gratitude.
