Sōkō Sagyō Ki (SS-Ki) - 1/54 28mm

[Bodmin]

I got this kit some time ago in a mystery box and it was indeed a total mystery as to what it actually was. It came in a bag with multiple metal parts and 3 chunks of resin. Anyway, it eventually came together and I learned it was an SS-Ki by Warlord games. I'm not one for armour really but it was not much of a challenge to put together (despite a lack of instructions) but fun non the less.

 

This vehicle was essentially a Japanese  'swiss army knife' able to clear mines, lay bridges, flame stuff and recover other tanks. Not a lot else to say really. It's a funny wee fella, very weighty and I suppose an asset for table top gaming.

Yes it is quite. I had to look it up to figure what the heck it did. Turns out quite a bit.

Great work on an interesting vehicle 👍

Could be something off 'Robot Wars' !

Well it's said you learn  something new every day. It looks like a fantasy/sci fi vehicle.

 

Nicely  made.

I never knew about this vehicle before, but instantly fell in love with it seeing your build. 
What a surrealistic creature - reminds me a lot of Freddy Krueger.

 

It's a real pity there is no 1:35 kit available.

I think it deserves a 1:35 tooling from someone. So much going on with the vehicle that it would make a really interesting build.

Very interesting, I like Japanese tanks but not seen this before, based on the type 89 I-Go. Nice job.

Very cool, and very nice.
