[MOC] Monster Fighter Assault Truck with Gatling Laser

[Ragnar_Deerslayer]

My Halloween build was the Vampyre Castle, but I felt that Frank Rock and Jack McHammer needed a truck of their own to go with Dr. Basil Rathbone's Hero Car. The result was the Assault Truck:

Key points: oversized tires, aggressive ramming spikes below the front grill, and a dash of red!

The highlight is the moonstone-powered gatling laser manned by Jack McHammer.

Below you can see the red LED brick I used, as well as the crank handle for the gatling mechanism:

Here is a YouTube video showing the gatling laser in action:

Finally, a shot of the truck in action: Assault on Vampyre Castle!

Your feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

I like that laser gatling gun idea! Very creative indeed. The overall look of the truck is macho and imposing, perfect for kicking monster booty. Excellent work!

Good use of a light brick and transclear parts.

I really love the idea of the light brick! Keep up the good work!

Love that gun. The truck is also awsome with all those old school pieces.

Good idea. I love the trans red gatling and the light brick, they look like a cameo from space police I :)

I love the wheels. I've never had a build go right with those (though I've tried several times) so I commend you! Great use of the old school doors and hinges, and innovation on using the light as part of the gun mechanism! Genius!

Inspiring build, pure to the spirit of LEGO play. I would have fun with this set.
