It's pretty much what the name says it is. A truck found and customed by survivors made for their own protection. Armed with three mini-guns, a heavy cannon, moving harpoon, and a movable searchlight, it's ready to take on any enemies. Inspiration for building this came from Andrew Lee's hunting semi from
Apocafest 2008.
About this creation
The truck without the trailer. The automated minigun can be seen on top as well as the side-mounted mini-gun. The harpoon is on the other side of the truck.
Pic of the movable spotlight. It can spot survivors with its powerful lights while the controller sits safely inside watching through the view of the orange lens.
The rear-mounted mini-gun. Credit for the mini-gun goes to coldblood6 on Flickr. When I saw it, I just knew I had to use it somewhere in my Lego creations. It does have slight modifications made by me though.
The heavy cannon. It has an ammo chain for shots and has a extra movable grenade launcher underneath it.
The inside view of the semi. It can be easily seen by removing the top hatch of the trailer.
The back view of the trailer. The doors act as a ramp for the survivors.
A view of the controls for the spotlight and trailer. Supply barrels can be seen as well and the controls for the back door can be seen on the right with a seat too.
The main supplies are seen here also with a bed that I made very quickly.
This thing is a road master! What is that big barrel all about? Is it a bath tub? These guys roll like rock stars! I like it, but I would add a small hatch so the gunners could move up onto the roof while the vehicle is moving. Also, I would replace the bars on the back door with plates (so other nomads could not see the occupants while they washed themselves in the tub!). If you built a second version of this thing, I bet it would be even better. Attack!

Surviving? I'd say if people roll around in this they'll be thriving! I like the heavy gun - pretty bad! Nice detail inside too. Keep it up!
