Lego and Meccano 'Marks'...
Permalink   


Is it just me, or has anyone else ever thought that Lego would be a brilliant medium for modelling WWI Tanks?

I did a little Google searching and came up with these -

Lego - http://www.brickmania.com/Gallery2/war/MkVtank.jpg

Meccano - http://www.scmec.us/images/Henley98/WW1-tank.jpg


The camo MkV looks stunning, even if the top edge of the sponson seems to be missing...

Trouble is, as I understand it, it can be VERY expensive to source the myriad of parts you need on Lego trading websites... as you're effectively cherry picking from just about every kit out there to find the odd little 'greebles' [as I believe Lego fans call them] that you need.

Does anyone else have great shots of WWI designs built from alternative materials?
