Borrowed idea, aka Shad-Tank

One freshly borrowed idea from Mark.
Tracks are from the Warthog

Chunkier and a little more armoured gun placement from the Dreadnok cycle
One super mean, run down the enemy machine.
Had some cool antennas from the black Awe striker but they didn`t want to fit

Excellent scoobydie! They certainly look better with tracks on. How did you attach them?

Same as your idea, had to put some holes in the chassis.
Also slotted one of the original axles in for support, not the sturdiest way so super glue may have to be the way to go.

Driver does have problems getting in and out!
Bit like the Cosmic Cruiser, I think they get lowered in.

it has to be said, Shadowtraks are a bit useless in that their only firepower is rear-facing...

Don't forget the forward firing missiles. I'm having trouble keeping up with all these tracked shadows now.

And you can put machine guns forward facing too...

Scooby, is that a variant / prototype Shadowtrak hook I see there? Or is there a snapped peg in the centre hole?
