Whirlwind
Elevating gun with rotating barrels.
The Z Force Whirlwind had a seat for one figure to sit in. It was on wheels and had a tow bar so other vehicles could tow it. The wheels could turn in and act as a base for it to balance on. It had two covers that could be taken off to reveal mechanics underneath. These covers are made of quite thin plastic and are often missing or broken. The long cannons are also prone to breaking.
