We Drove The Warthog!
WORDS BY: Alistair Wallis
The Way The Ride Ends
With the visit winding to a close, the Weta team manages to pry me from the Warthog and return me to my hotel. The Warthog goes back to its home in a garage in the Workshop, until it’s needed for the next promotional event — its appearance at comics and games conventions around New Zealand has become something of a talking point.
Of course, unless the movie ever becomes an actuality, the replica is unlikely to be used for much more than a showpiece. Osborne says the team would be happy to build more of the vehicles, were the fi lm to ever go into production — possibly even with the independent suspension. “That would be the ideal thing,” he comments, “but like I said — there would be a lot of R&D involved in getting it working.”
Maybe that movie and vehicle will get made one day; maybe it won’t. But it’s comforting just knowing that one real Warthog exists, ready for active duty. Until that call comes, the vehicle sits in stasis, as if to say, “Wake me...when you need me.”

I don't want to be 'that guy' but i gotta say something...
Page 3... It may have been an early-build pic, but the only thing turning that front differential is hopes and dreams, this thing is Rear-wheel-drive only... unless they make invisible drive shafts, or they have some crazy 90ยบ angle-splitting off-double CV joint kinda thing going on...
now, make it 4WD and i'll take two, LOL

That's freakin' awesome man! I remember reading this awhile ago, and I wanted to drive it so badly. It's so nostalgic for a true fan to drive that. If only the gun was real, you could bring it out to the range and blow off some steam.
