It sure looks like her. I again salute her bravery: even knowing nothing about that specific model, I don't think you could get me to touch that thing with a ten-foot pole. It looks like it's going to fall to pieces in mid-air. |

Those that WERE put into production were used to airlift supplies to mountain divisions. The rotors being out on struts was Germany's solution to the "It won't stop spinning!" problem.

I'd expect a sequel rather than retelling Miho's earlier adventures. The reason is twofold: there are going to be a large number of fans of the regular cast and they wouldn't show up in a prequel, and a properly told show should already tell us what we need to know about what happened to Miho.

Given more episodes, we probably would have had seen more from the other characters, and they'd talk more about the individual tanks. I don't recall even really obvious tidbits like how Shermans utterly overpower the Ooarai AFVs being talked about in the show.

I mean, we are talking about old tanks here. Not that high tech by modern standards. And the blueprints are still around right? I am sure there is a market for these things.

Well, I was actually thinking of using a tractor as a base and then add steel plates on there for a more accurate mockup. Unfortunately, even the cheapest would go at a minimum... in the United States, for around $50,000. Now... they can easily purchase an operational T-34 for around $30k, and customize it however they want. Besides, Russia is closer!!

http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=4c0_1306338710 for things like this, farmers (who has the tools, times, and skill) are the one to go, I used to have a link of a Russian farmer who built all kind of WWII 1X1 scale tank from tractor parts, so good that he was contracted to do the props for the various Russian war movies, including the latest movie about a haunted white Tiger?

There is of course... a concern. A 1:1 scale Panzer IV just wouldn't fit within the usual confinements of common Japanese streets, let a alone a place like Ooarai. Doesn't mean I am giving up on the chances of seeing one, though - Tak
