Re the 1/18 figures, I have previously bought from a company called sinodolls through ebay but they don't seem to have much listed at the moment
Found this which might be ok

The tracks and gearboxes arrived Saturday so I didn't have time to get it up and running by today's BAD meet, but it made a nice static model all the same. I managed to do a dodgy 3D printing deal for a Torro tankrider, who miraculously not only sits perfectly on the storage bins, but whose feet line up perfectly with the floor and the ammo storage. Perfect!

Dodgy 3D printing deal? Have I been conned? Surely you would not stoop so low.

I have the soldier, you don't have the Puma parts. This was the best training video I ever saw.

Ah, but if I don't get the Puma parts, you can never produce the soldier at another meeting.

P.S. I know where you live!

Thanks Mick, the thing about 3D printing is that there are an incredible number of things to learn to get good quality prints. I am learning all the time, with just about anything that I design or print.

@Richard....you must have missed the post about me moving....I will be living in an underground bunker in the middle of Dartmoor, solar lighting and power, no windows, and no doorbell.

A very quick and dirty video just to show that it all works. Runs very nicely on plastic gearboxes, as it is so light. It has the muzzle flash and infra red emitter installed, I just need to fit hidden sensors, and finish off the paintwork and it will be good to go. Its running on a TK22 Bulldog board, but there is no chance of fitting a Visaton speaker and a full size battery, so it has a Taigen speaker in there for now.

Mr Wibbly looks and runs excellent. I've used the tiagen speaker in some of my builds where space is very limited and they sound nice. Good job

W.W.,
You have done another Great! job of bringing an unusual armored vehicle to life, this time mostly using a 3D printer. Future is already here for the Model Industry.
