Did You Miss Archon Studio’s Grizzly 28mm Wolverine Tank?
March 21, 2023 by brennon
Archon Studio recently released one of their most sought-after 28mm plastic kits. The Wolverine Tank was made available at the end of February and I thought it would be handy to remind folks that if you didn't snap it up, you might want to scoop it up for your Sci-Fi armies, grimdark or otherwise.

Made from hard plastic, the tank comes in at around 4.7 inches long and has a ramp at the back that can be opened up. It also comes with a rotating turret section which can be spun around for maximum action movie awesomeness on the tabletop. You'll also note that it also has a bottom!

Helpful if you ever want to turn your tank upside down for whatever reason I suppose. The Wolverine has a pretty standard Sci-Fi tank vibe to it and depending on how you paint it, you could use this as a stand-in for games like Warhammer 40,000 or drop it into others games like Warpath/Firefight or Xenos Rampant.

It certainly ticks a lot of the grimdark boxes with its general look and feel but if you got rid of the muck and grime and gave it an urban paint scheme, it could look very different. It is very nice that it has a fully detailed interior, a fun bonus for those that like going that extra mile with their vehicles.
Could you be tempted to pick up the Wolverine?

“Tank with a bottom” – Making a plastic kit a few different parts: X USD. Taking a piss at G’Wullu: priceless! XD
Indeed!
This looks interesting . Going by the size given (4.7 in) its about the size of a Bolt Action JS II hull . Not a bad sized vehicle . Upon checking out Archon’s web site , the size includes gun length , so a quick measurement of the pictures of the back of the box and the hull comes out to be just under 4 inches around a BA Panzer III size , so not quite as imposing as I first thought . Anyone know where to find a break down of the kit parts and a size comparison with… Read more »
According to this https://youtu.be/Ryx-ms7NMtk it looks a bit bigger than a Leman Russ, maybe Malcador chassis size
Though it looks much smaller here https://youtu.be/qYL9FtZcQqE

That is very nice.
A fabulous looking alternative futuristic ARV.
