This is the Mark IIB pre-heresey Land Raider.
It is part of Mike Sharpe’s superb Space Wolves army, which was on show at GamesDay 2006.
The model is available from Forgeworld and is a very nice kit. I have one but have not yet started it. It is based on the plastic Land Raider kit, and the model is very similar to the Epic Land Raider.
The Vindicator assault tank is often used by Space Maines to breach heavily fortified enemy positions.
This is the Forgeworld version of the Vindicator assault tank. It is part of Mike Sharpe’s superb Space Wolves army, which was on show at GamesDay 2006.
I photographed quite a few photos of Mike’s army when I was at GamesDay as seen on the blog and on the Warhammer 40K Space Marine miniatures gallery.
I found out in this month’s (January 2007) UK White Dwarf review of GamesDay the owner of the collection, I can’t recall seeing details on the day.
It’s an impressive army.

Though I am not a fan of the gunship I do quite like the transporter variant.
This is another Dave Andrews creation which was on display at GamesDay 2006.
I have no idea what it is, the weird contraption on the top doesn’t seem to have any clear purpose!
