Mad Maxine: Girls Just Want to Have Fun

 Just in time for Father's Day. Finally the girls got together, rolling hard through the ruins of St. Petersburg. Its June 2025, the end of the Pipeline wars. The remaining Russian cities are in chaos, with rioting, and looting of the local Hobby Stores. In St. Petersburg, these young ladies are keeping the streets safe. Oh Yeah, Please Help Me!!!

This was both a pleasure and a pain to build.  It started out as a Trumpeter, Russian Rocket Launcher Truck from the 80s. I had lots of problems with it, mostly my own mistakes which I wasn't able to fix. So.. what else to do but to re-purpose it in a Sci Fi way. 

In the spirit of MAD MAX Thunder Road, I began to modify the vehicle. The ideas grew, compounding the need for more stuff, Gatling gun, Flame Thrower, Plow Blades and a wacky engine. 

Then I saw those Master Box sets of GIRLS. Bought a few and started mixing and matching.  As they developed, so did the story behind the vehicle. Thus the need for the Graffiti and Tattoo decal sheets. 

And now for the details on the girls: 

Maxine: Former Russian Army Tank Driver and Mechanic. Lost her eye in the war of 2024.

Annika: Former Russian Spetsnaz Sniper.  You'll never hear the shot.

Irina Former Russian Special Weapons designer graduated from Kazan University.  Loves to pull your trigger.

Khristina: Former Lingerie model. Disfigured in the firebombing of St. Petersburg in 2024. Still hates wearing cloths.

Marisha: Former Petroleum Engineer from USPTU turned saboteur for the GRU. She'll light your fire.
