Do you guys remember that famous game Halo back on the Xbox when it first came out.
When they did the film the Wart Hog machine was made out of a Troll.
Below is their write up i found and pics/videos.
Apparently the guys at Peter Jackson's WETA effect studio made a real-life working Warthog out of an Aussie Nissan Patrol as part of the live action Halo piece that was released in 2007 (check out the Warthog in action here (http://www.ausgamers.com/videos/view.php/31313)). So since the pitch for the Halo movie fell on deaf ears, this piece of machinery has just been sitting around, and what do you do with a real-life warthog no one's using? You use it! It's a nerdy piece about dressing up as a marine, but I know a lot of AusGamers users are 4WD fanatics, so thought it worth posting a link to.
