Scout Flyer- the VogelHund
this is my take on a one off design by Kow Yokoyama that appeared in Hobby Japan Magazine in the 80's. The series that its from is called Maschinen Krieger. It's a future war scenario, starting in the year 2885. Most of the action uses armored fighting suits- man sized, not giant robot sized though. It's undergoing a bit of a revival now. Hasegawa will be doing it's first release of one of the designs this year, Wave has bee releasing new kits for a year now as well. THIS is an AI drone meant to scout by itself. I added a weapon system to mine. The basic body is the display stand from the Ertl Slave One kit and the frame from a 1/9 scale Esci Motorcycle. The rest is just creative parts bin raiding. The original build pics from the magazine can be seen here: http://www.ahauntedgallery.com/mak_sf_Vogelhund.html
