Futuron: 6875 Hovercraft: Alternate 4

And we're back for one final wild ride aboard hovercraft.  Excuse me while I grab some coffee to make this post more aliiive!






















I have saved, what is in my mind, the best box alternate for last.  I shall call it the chick walker, because it has feet and it's a tubby little thing.  


















































Although the mouth and eyes are totally bubble eye goldfish.




















I will be your end!!! bloop.



forced comparisons to cute animals aside; this is an intriguing model which holds its astronaut inside of a basket cockpit with excellent side visibility and poor front and back views.  In my base it would be a perimeter scout surveying the landscape outside the base and looking toward the base for any sign of intruders.  




















The front blasters are adjustable to deal with any Alienators












or

Invaders









Up high in the sky, Invader has been sighted at coordinates 00°41′15″N, 23°26′00″E.  Preparing to engage, send a StarDefender ASAP.



























The top down view reveals sparse controls, and a simple elegant design.  The blocked front and rear visibility are very apparent from this vantage point.





































Chick walker to base, perimeter is secure.









Somewhere in an encrypted channel.
Blacktron guy 1: Dood, this plan is so great; so when do we run toward the base???
Blacktron guy 2: No idea dood but I already feel like we won.
Blacktron guy 1: Dood, this plan is so good.
Blacktron guy 2: Good?  No dood, this plan is so Bad, we're Bad, so we have Bad plans.
Blacktron guy 1: Ooh, Dood you're sooo right, this Bad plan is terrifically Bad.
Blacktron guy 2: Dood!  Best Bad sneaking job ever!

Will Blacktron enter the base and enact their nefarious plan to enter the base, or will the chick walker discover their do baddery before it's too late?

It's up to you to decide.

Until next time, the Cure-all Pill
