Painted War Machine

Martians from Twilight Creations and the Happy Meal Martian War Machine.

This Happy Meal toy has been modified to better simulate a war machine.

Saucer has been painted copper color, and the heat ray has been painted dark beret green.

The eyes are a disintegration ray.

By taking photos from several angles the size of the war machines can be shown as being very large.

War Machine & 60 mm

One of the things I liked about this War Machine is that it is rather generic and can be used in several sizes.

Here a few 60mm soldiers from Tim Mee and others approach the War Machine.

The right photo angle, up or down really makes this thing look much bigger.

Martian war machines waiting for painting. Once the remainder of them arrive from the supply points, I will remove the springs and paint them.

These are the most fearsome war machines in the whole laundry room!

The vicious scourge of both washing machine and dryer.

No one can oppose them!

60mm figures make an attempt to destroy a war machine. This machine is usable for several scales because the machine itself is rather generic.

The bottom of the saucer. The legs just snap into the hole.

The saucer has a spring inside to launch the torpedo. I made a little tool out of a paperclip to capture the spring. Using my needle nose pliers I pulled the spring out.

Once the spring is pulled a bit out of the opening, I then gripped the spring with the pliers and pulled it out.

The spring has been removed. The plan is to use the torpedo as the heat ray. I will re-insert it but glue it into the hole.
