It was called the "Hellhound", not really a "tank" as I dont think half of it worked. No clue what happened to it. P.S : This forum is for Ideas, this isnt one. ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |

Some people came into the building and stole it along with the prototype of the new gun. So its delayed another year atleast. Hehehe, starting rumors is fun. |

Probably sitting in a very large closet somewhere... All it was was a promotional item to get people to say "Wow! Tippmann is way cool!", I don't think it was ever used in a game. ------------- It seems like all the cool cats do this: Custom 98, Flatline, r/t, CAR stock, custom camo paintjob, which every hopper I feel like putting on it, vertical adapter, oh dibs, I'm running out of charact |

I think it is in display just to see what can be done with some hard thinkers and a few tools. I think it would be fun to drive and shoot. I want to see it shoot and feed the 50 something bps into that canon. If you search the internet, you ccan find the pictures again. |

The last time it was mentioned (sometime last year), it was sitting on display outside the Exotic Sportz store in Michigan. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

evil_fingers is right. its is sitting in the front of the store at ExoticSportz. I was at exoticsportz saturday and saw it. the 10 gun barrel is just a drill. |

It's really cool to look at, but think about the it in a practical way. I heard that it does chop paint quickly, because the drill (spins the ten barrels) might be spinning at a different rate as the two cyclones. So, why not just use two A-5s? If you want to make something that resembles the Hellhound, that's my suggestion. Tippmann probably used a ten barrel gatling gun just because it looks tougher  .------------- It seems like all the cool cats do this: Custom 98, Flatline, r/t, CAR stock, custom camo paintjob, which every hopper I feel like putting on it, vertical adapter, oh dibs, I'm running out of charact |

The SpecialOps Razorback is nothin new to look at, its looks more like a Special Forces fighting vehicle which also nothin new to look at as well, as for the Tippmann Hell Hound its World known. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

I rather have this thread bumped up than having another person asking the same question in a new thread about the Hell Hound all over again. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!
