I like the Iron Grenadiers, especially the first round of vehicles. But even as a kid, I wanted to correct the Demon's lack of a proper tank turret.

I had a couple junker Despoilers and started playing around with the DespoilerXDemon combination. I figured Destro, arms dealer/businessman, could make Despoiler variants to battle test new technologies without the expense of designing new vehicles from the ground up.

The driver figures are mostly LBCs.

First up is a twin laser/antiaircraft variant. Operator is SgtMajor.






This one's the traditional cannon/turret. Operator is Maj Kaboom (IronAnvil 2nd in command). The little radar dish glows so I am hesitant to paint it.






Group shot:


Destro (parade review formal uniform) In the background, next to the Ferret, is MetalHead (V1 in JoeCon colors).


I'm also working on an AGP landing pad/repair platform that connects like a Despoiler to the Demon. It's using the landing pad from the TacticalBattlePlatform. I'm trying to incorporate some workstations/consoles but don't have the correct parts at the moment.

That's pretty slick. I just read somewhere about the demon being a cancelled Joe Arctic vehicle.

Great job!

very cool project

Those are a lot of fun. I like the traditional cannon the best. I would leave the glow in the dark dish as is. It's a great feature.

I would paint the back of the dish, the cone, and the four strips on the inside of the dish black then cover that with silver; while leaving the four 'pie slices' of the inside dish and the inside of the cone as is. I think it'd look a lot cooler glowing like sections of it were operating than if the whole thing were radioactively contaminated.

I've never dug how high the Despoiler rides up on that cannon-hinge, but I very much like these alternate Despoilers, esp the single-barrel one. It's a flying hate-dick, lol.

Thanks guys. I've got one more Despoiler right now that I haven't got a plan for yet. Maybe a rocket launcher version or several dishes and antennae to make a surveillance/communications version.



That's really cool, I can totally see that. Where did you read that? I'd love to see the concept art for the Arctic version.

These are cool conversions, thank you for sharing them!
