The JUGGERNAUT (from Undersea Kingdom (1936))

[DrSatansRobot95]

Quite a simple design.

Woudn't look out of place as some sort of despotic riot control vehicle

Or out pf the classic movie "Things to come!" Matter of cfact, there was a "tank" they showed in that movie aliong the same lines in scenes filemd against a backdrop of Vickers Meidums!

[Don Boose]

I remember that film! I wasn't yet born when it first came out, but it was rerun as a serial at the Waverly Theater in Baltimore in the late 1940s or early 1950s, along with Don Winslow of the Navy, Ace Drummond, and many others. I don't remember much about the Undersea Kingdom serial, but I remember the juggernauts.

I had a VHS tape of it at one time, which is how I saw it, as I didn't come along untill 1956!

Things To Come with Raymond Massey?
...watched it this past year for the first time in its entirety.

I remember some interesting aircraft in that one too.

but I have never heard of Undersea Kingdom.
Is it a serial? or just a single film?

[Don Boose]

It was a serial when I watched it sometime around 1950 in Baltimore.

I love the flying wings in "Things to Come" and I always wished someone would do a paper model of them.


And who could forget in Undersea Kingdom when Crash Corrigan was ruthlessly strapped to the front of the juggernaut and faced certain and gruesome annihilation when the Juggernaut was about to ram the gates of the fortress?!?


Even thought the front looks like a toilet float, I always liked the submarine from that same serial;

[Don Boose]

I seem to remember some terrific undersea explosions and volcanic eruptions in that film. But I had forgotten the submarines.

What was the one that involved people who live in high cliffs and had wings? I think the costume designers for that one weere influenced by the Polish winged knights.

Cool! Unfortunately, these films are rarely seen in Germany.
On the model I'm very excited.
