What is it? Glad you asked! It is a 1/35 scale Forward Support/Reconnaissance Vehicle (FSRV) which Anthony says is mostly scratchbuilt. “The lower half of its body was made from parts in my scrap box — might be from a leftover Bandai kit,” he says. “Top half was made from Evergreen plastic. Many of the components are held together by tiny magnets to ease the posture of the robot while on its base. LEDs were added and a hidden battery pack inside with an switch on the figure.” He placed it on groundwork made from Celluclay, white glue, and dark brown paint covered with static grass and a fence made from coffee stirrers.
