What do you get a tank for its birthday? A new set of treads? One of those aftershave gift packs only with turret polish and armor wax? To celebrate the anniversary of Warhammer 40,000's Land Raider, Games Workshop gave it what basically amounts to an episode of This is Your Life dedicated to an imaginary Panzer.
The Land Raider is 25 years old, at least in its current form. As Games Workshop points out, the original version goes all the way back to the first edition of Warhammer 40,000 in 1987, though at that point it was a miniature scratch-built entirely from spare parts by sculptor/artist/painter Dave Andrews with tracks made out of the tops of pens.
