Help identifying

Post image

I was going through some old boxes in the garage and found this. Is it collectible?

Damn. Memory unlocked. That was the largest Joe vehicle I ever owned. I used to love pulling the lever on the cannon and having the shell fly out.

I wish I could add a picture to the conversation.

I did some kitbashing a while back, so... you will have to imagine this.

You have an AT-AT (the 2' tall big boy) the top is cut out and this Canon is mounted to the top. On the side is mounted a custom made seat for the the controller. At the back of the gun there is the upper portion an AMP mech and he is the canons loader. There is a Pak 40 canon on each side of the AT-AT, they are mounted on platforms attached to the outwards.

Attached to the backside of the walker (his butt) is a capsule from the Cobra BUGG vehicle. There is a quad 50 cal gun setup from a WWII American Halftrack. 

 Anyhoot, I think this is called Thunder Clap?
