1979 OGRE MARK V (OGRE1)

 The 1979 version is a one-piece body. To that is attached the 4 tread units, the 2 main and 6 secondary batteries, and the conning tower. Later versions all have a two-piece body.

Design by Winchell Chung; Martian Metals sculpture by Forrest Brown

Note: This example is missing the 2 main and 6 secondary batteries, and the conning tower is bent and is missing the top.

The underside has "1978" and "MM" etched in to it.


Mr. Rich Brown is the owner of this extremely rare miniature.
