Today I have the great pleasure of sharing with all of you the Keilerkopf Eisenkern APC.
The completion of this kit was no small task, moving from a strictly CAD based environment into a real world model without a 3d print or master meant I needed to put a lot of faith in the Wargames Factory engineering team, I think the end results speak for itself.
The final kit required eight full tools and three partial tools, (not including the crew) far more than we first anticipated but perfection demanded nothing less.
Some of the kit features:
- Clear windows that have the greenish tint most commonly found on ballistic glass (we are still playing with the tint color to get it as close as we can).
- Working doors, hatches and hood.
- A detailed interior and engine compartment.
- A full crew compliment, driver, gunner and ten seated Stormtroopers.
- A movable defenses turret, mounted to a gantry, it provides a full 360 protection against unwanted guests.
- Wheels that roll around the fixed center hub and a linked front set that simulates real world steering.
- TPE a soft plastic tires.
As we draw closer to the conclusion of this Kickstarter, I must thank the backers again for all the understanding you have given while we worked hard to provide you with the best plastic sci-fi kits possible. – Mark DreamForge-Games
