Robiwon, sorry but I have to dig for the magazine article. Strangely, only one box of old mags is missing from my storage area - and it is the one with all my Tamiya issues! That figures. I'll look around this weekend.
In the mean time, some progress pics on the HK Tank (assuming they show up!):

HK Tank-04
Pegasus provided snap tabs for the trunnions, which will not allow the parts to be separated, so I changed them to twist lock tabs. I'll do this for the head, body, and gun turrets.

HK Tank-03
Here is one bogie's worth of track links. They aren't finished yet, but I couldn't resist taking a photo. The kit "rubber band" tracks seem to fit too tightly, and I have no confidence in those greasy noodles. They have four bumps where material was injected into the mold too.

HK Tank-06
And here is the HK mocked up with rubber bands. The trading figure of Ripley in her Power Loader is approximately the same scale as the HK. I think Pegasus got the size of the HK Tank correct, unlike the teeny Flying HK. I want to be able to add the bogies after construction and painting are completed. The solution involves toilet paper. Stay tuned.
