Replica Tron Tanks from 1982 Movie

on Saturday, January, 29, 2011 11:14 PM
Along with my 3" Tron Lightcycles, I also made both versions of the tanks. Clu's tank with the red tracks, and the tanks later seen chasing Flynn, Tron, and Ram in the Lightcycles. These are not movie scale, but rather scaled in the 3" size similar to HotWheels or Matchbox cars. And the same size the Lightcycles I built are, and the new Tron Legacy lightcycles are scaled at.

It's seeing things like that which make me wish I owned a rapid prototyper, but even the cheap ones aren't cheap.

Oh and a 3D scanner would be a nice addition to a rapid prototyper, you could copy small things and create miniature versions of things

Yeah, I wish I owned one too. Would make my job so much easier. These are hand built.

Well honestly, I only posted them to show other people that would also enjoy them. But since I am able to make more, I am sure I can offer some of them up. The reason i haven't answered that question yet was that i really wasn't sure what to charge for them. So it's anyone's guess since I didn't post them to offend anyone with the pics or any prices. I didnt want to post a price and risk being flamed over it being a newcoming to the site. I am a huge fan like the rest of you.

Speaking as an interested party, I wouldn't be offended by prices. You took the time to make them, you know how much time and labor went in, so what youthink is fair is what we'll have to accept if we want one. As for me, if you ask something outside of my price range, I'll simply pass (or rob a bank). I think I speak for a lot of us. :Porder abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Amazing work! Thanks for posting them.

Like I said on the cycle thread put me on the interested list for these if you decide to do a run. I would love to hear what you offer in either plastic or diecast unfinished or not. Just use a little balance in your price, your an awesome artist so you should get a decent compensation versus cost of supplies and time spent making them. order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pillwhere to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

You do know you can get a tank as part of one of the older Medicom Tron Kubrick sets, right?

Yes I do. I own the prototype samples of those Kubrick tanks and cycles.

Those are beautiful. Nice work. I'll thrown in my two cents and express an interest in purchasing a couple if it were to ever come to that.

Way cool man, way cool. There's definitely a market for custom designed Tron stuff, if you could get away with it without it hurting your professional design work, you should try to run off small batches for the rabid fan base here.

You wouldn't get rich, but you'd make a LOOOOOOOOOOOOT of Tron fans very happy.

Did you make each as an individual master, or did you create one and mold it to cast the duplicates?

I made a master and made a mold of that. I will figure out the next step for doing this. Give me a little bit of time yet though. I am working on stuff for an upcoming Vegas show and I am swamped with work.

No rush, man.
Just know that since you have made a mold and additional pulls are possible, many of us here would certainly be interested in them. I'd even be in for raw, "fixer-upper" casts if you have any.

Just a suggestion, maybe send a Private Message (PM) to interested parties, if you are concerned with offending others.

Well done!

*Picks up a tank.*

They look so realistic!

*Tank fires and blows my head off.*

Jokes aside, that is very nice work. As the risk of being laughed out of here, ever though about making a replica of Sark's carries around that size?
