I'm not sure if this belongs here or over in autos or somewhere else. Dio is probably the closest.

This Dickietoys 1/25th scale plastic toy followed me home from a Winners department store not long ago

After dismanteling it and replacing all of the joints new pins, replacing some of the rams and adding new tracks and wheels and an operator, I repainted and weathered the machine to look like this

The base is a gravel bank that I made up to display construction models on. I'm afraid that there isn't much of a story line to this dio. it is just a fun build

Thanks
