Kallisti Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 The Imperial Hover tank attacked by Rebels in Jedha is based on a CRV(T) Sheilder chassis: Accurate Armour do a 1:35 Sheilder but its out of production at the moment, go here if you want them to repop it! https://accurate-armour.com/our-products/135th-kits/k087 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastvader Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Looked like it was on tracks to me when I watched Rogue One. The chassis one would need would be a Stormer, as that's what the Shielder system is mounted on. You could also just use a CVR (t) chassis (Scimitar, Scorpion etc) as the Stormer is a modernised version if these with an extra road wheel. Regardless, I'd love them to re-pop the kit as there is an absolute derth of modern AVREs on the market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallisti Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 If you look at the front you see the lockers that are only on the Shileder chassis which is derived from Stormer but had extra bins added. To convert from a Scorpion or Scimitar would be tricky as its wider (2.76m as opposed to 2.13m) as well as longer with the extra road wheel.

Madmonk Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Wonder if Bandai will do this in 1:12 to match the figure range!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastvader Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 The only defineis the Rogue One pack where you get two in 1/144 scale. It would be pretty big in 1/12 I would imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallisti Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 1:12 scale would be about half the size of the old Action Man tank toy which was a Scorpion Alternatively the Stormer chassis is 5.27m long = 44cm in 1:12 2.76m wide = 23cm in 1:12 2.49m tall = 21cm in 1:12 Of course it'd be a bit wider and longer because of all the gubbins they've added...

Kallisti Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 I think the idea that this was a hover tank was from a poor quality screngrab plus some pics of Lego models, Looks like they don't understand who the driver is - he should be the bloke with his head sticking out of the driver's hatch!
