Real-Life Warhammer 40,000 Rhino Transport

So the creaters of Warhammer went and made a real-life Space Marine Rhino replica to folks excited about the upcoming video game. And, also, to crush the hell out of some little cars. Per my tipster, Sam:

Thought you might be interested in knowing about this, as it was modified from a old WWII British tank to promote the upcoming Warhammer 40000: Dawn of War 2 game that is about a week away from being released.


Nothing really amazing if it was just a normal tank (crushing cars is still cool, but still would be nothing new) but since it was heavily modified into a working replica (mostly) of the Warhammer 40000 Space Marine Rhino transport, it's been an ecstasy trip for 40kiers like me and anyone else seeing one their favorite tabletop franchise coming to life.

Freaking sweet -- I want one. And not just because some jerk broke my passenger side mirror off without leaving a note. No, it's because I want to crush the car that did it -- driver too! With a tank. A Warhammer tank. VROOM VROOM!! This ain't no table-top game, bitch, this is real life!

    The guy on the far left: he's filming the scantily-clad car models. You know what the problem with Lamborghinis is? Not enough room to haul stuff. Enter the conceptual Lamborghini Urus, a 200-MPH SUV from the Italian manufacturer who's cars used to give me boners in the earl... / Continue →

    You've got to admit, for someone from Indiana that's pretty clever. Kidding! I don't actually have anything against Indiana. Now North Dakota -- God, don't even get me started. Psyche, I'm cool with them too. But NOT Montana, Hannah. Really not happy about that whole situat... / Continue →
