Spacetank
appeared only once during the Terrahawks television
series, in the episode 'Two For The Price Of One'.
Designed by Special Effects Director Steven Begg in
January 1984. See below: The original design courtesy of
Century 21 magazine issue 13 |

Only one model was required and this was a very accurate
reproduction of the design sketch. |

Considering
the cost and time involved in buying more expensive
wheels, and making the heavy brass suspension arms, it's
likely that the chassis is simply borrowed from the front
two sections of the Overlander model (as the
rear section had plastic hubs). |

Note the two rows of Zeriods, in trenches along the top
surface, that are not mentioned in the story. |
