I just happened upon this site showing a group of cosplayers dressed as the Dreadnoks, but the amazing thing is their Thunder Machine.

That is soooo cool. They nailed all of the details perfectly.

That Thunder Machine has to be one of the coolest things I have ever seen!

I wish there were more, better pictures of it without people standing in front of it. It looks really impressive, and not a small undertaking.

That's amazing. I heard years back that someone was working on one of these, but I never thought I'd actually see it completed. Assuming this is the same one, of course.

Well, if you're going to customize a full-size G.I. Joe vehicle, why not base it on one that more or less WAS a custom!

I mentioned that before ( I think ) But noone listens to me...
I know the builder and most of the Dreadnoks, here's a couple of FB albums.

Time for donuts and grape soda!

Bombstrike wandered by.

Parade shots!

I thought I had more of the parade route saved, maybe just not uploaded to Photobucket. If you wanna see something specific, I can probably find it.

Thanks for sharing these Zarana-X. Your friend's album must be friends only because it says not found when I clicked on it.

They look like they are having a blast but to be honest I'm not as intimidated by these guys as I would imagine.

As cosplay goes, they did a very capable job. Road Pig in particular. The Thunder Machine is very impressive!
