Looks like a cartoon character from the front!

The mind boggles!

Hypersonic rivets!

It looks like Science Fiction of the early 1940s.

No need that it works actually, the important thing is to dream! This is the principle of what-if spirit, I think (at least this is my way into it).

Another striking build Eric.

To me it looks like it comes from a sci-fi anime.

Very much so

Maybe when they were designing it they thought it might be easier to bludgeon their way through the sound barrier rather than pierce it ?

I'm going with Tophe, maybe Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon!

Good looking!

Looks the part

That's SUCH a practical idea, not to mention being a good model too.
