Here is my take on the Ribogear Raptor.
You can find an unmodified version here:
http://modelstories.free.fr/histokits/R ... page3.html
The kit is made for the Robogear game and is supposed to carry a soldier on the back. I build mine as a sort off Mechwarrior with smaller rockets instead of the spring loaded toy launchers which come with the model.
Painting was done with spray cans, masking with poster buddies/blue tack.
The decal is from an Airfix T-34.
The rear was closed with spare parts/ greebles.
Legs and missiles are posable.
With an 1/144 Tornado for reference.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.
