Captain America is probably one of my favorite comic book movies to date. One of the reasons I love it so much is the explosion of tech design – the retro-futuristic gizmos and vehicles developed for the film are just fantastic:

I’ve begun working out some ideas for the monster Hydra tank. I plan on making it functional for the 1/18th scale action figures, but about ½ scale from what is shown in the film (I drew up a properly scaled template and its just too friggin’ big). I’m thinking the treads will be about 6 or 7” tall, and the overall length will be about 25”, which should give it an impressive scale without requiring another wing added to the house.
Anyone else as enamored with this silly movie as I am? I’d love to see some of this stuff converted into merchandise…the toy line for the movie is really crappy, which is frustrating considering how awesome these design would translate into toys and play sets. But a high end model kit of these vehicles would be incredible.
