Nope. Just another dead end prototype.

Like so many things 21c proposed, this never saw the light of day. Its too bad as they could have easily done it since they had the Tiger mould.

There's no reason why JSI can't do it! :)

Isn't there some license/royalties type of deal to use the likeness/name? I know 21st had to pay for Patton.

Eh, it's tri-color, so "roughly" yes. Unimax's would be a better starting point as it's got the zimmerit coat.
