Z Force Transporter

Post by Jimbo »

Final Z Force custom until I can get some more base vehicles. This one is for transporting stuff around when Z Force are deployed. Gaucho seems the ideal figure to drive and operate it. Enjoy!

PS I didn't take a 'before' photo, but the vehicle comes from a playset from Woolworths. You can see it on their website here:

It could be used for transporting vehicles. Only one tank fits on, but you can get two Z Force Jeeps on it easily. Here is Steeler getting loaded up as we speak....

Many thanks!

One last image of it on the move. It's got a couple of bits of Command Centre (the only bits of it I own, which came with a job lot of Action Force stuff I won on EBay), a few fuels cans and the Dart. Perhaps at last I can move the Attack Cannon around!

The eagle-eyed amongst you may have noticed that Gaucho's watch and cap are the wrong colour. That's because the Z Force Command Centre is now the only Action Force toy that I haven't owned from new. So 'Gaucho' is actually the AF Gung-Ho painted to match as best as possible.

The big boy on the move..............

PS I've just noticed that Gaucho seems to be singing or something inside the cab :points:

Hmm... it may look completely daft, but would the Attack Cannon (minus base) slot into the hole in the cab roof?

Aha, great minds think alike! I tried it when I first bought it. With the removal of a small square of plastic about 2mm wide it would fit, and snugly enough to stay in place, but also turn. However it looks like some sort of transformer!

Wait a minute and I'll load a small pic......

Actually I suppose it doesn't look that bad static. Ruins the effect having it on whilst driving around though. Decide for yourself.....

Ah, I can't decide. Probably without, I can't see the driver appreciating it being fired much. It is nice to see the attack cannon have a home, but no matter what, I think that toy is destined to remain a sore thumb. thanks for taking the time, though Jimbo.

Very nice, Jimbo.

Seen this in woolworths before, and I love the way that you've turned something that looks so cheap into something that definetly belongs among the ranks of Action force.

It's great that Z-Force, the backbone of Action Force, finally has some real cool new vehicles, you must've doubled the variety of vehicles they used to have and turned them into a real army.

Very nice.

Keep up the great work.
