Product Description
Tri-star wheel arrangement. The concept was originated by Robert and John Forsyth, of Lockheed, in 1967. It is most known for having been used by the Landmaster vehicles in the 1977 post-apocalyptic movie Damnation Alley. The main advantage of the design is that if one wheel gets stuck on an obstacle, the next wheel will rotate over it and thus clear the obstacle. I am unsure of its applicability in real life, but in Make-Belief Land the tri-star wheels are suitable for rough terrain (and for running over radscorpions...).

Available in 28mm scale. The entire wheel assembly is about the height of a standard 28mm infantry model.
