I can't remember if I posted this before, but emptying my old bachelor pad, I found this Ideal Toys M65 Atomic Cannon. The box had moldered away, but besides the M50 machine gun barrels being bent (I got them straightened out) it's in very nice shape. To be in mint conditions it would need all the stickers that label the barrel, elevation and firing mechanisms that I never put on because they just looked goofy. Those projectile will fly across the room.

Very nice model and it is great that it still around ! Ideal Toys did a very impressive job with this big replica.
I recall an old photograph showing an atomic-shell firing cannon being tested for real at the Nevada test site. This would certainly open up a big area in enemy lines and suitibly-equipped troops could take full advantage of the vacated zone !
