This is the Capture Chariot, vehicle from the late 80s kid show ; Visionaries. I pretty much explained the back story on that in my Lancer Cycle Moc entry. The Capture Chariot was the primary vehicle of the protagonist group; The Spectral Knights. It was operated by Feral; the youngest member of the SK whose animal totem was that of a wolf he acquired for his keen tracking.
The Capture Chariot had one main turret and two gun pods, each capable of flight that were also capable of casting magical fire bolts. Strangely the actual Hasbro toy could only seat 3 of the six SK action figures; four with the Lancer Cycle allowing one; primary Ectar its designated driver. In the series the other knights would man the Chariots turret.
This kind of bothered me as the vehicles of the antagonist group; the Darkling Lords had seating arrangements for all the figures, one even available for Virulina; the female DL who never had a figure released by Hasbro

As I said, the gun pods could cast magical fire bolts. The required a spell that was never used in the show or comic series.

Those were great cartoons and toys, I miss them all. Great work on the builds and minifigs, did you print those chest emblems yourself?

Re: Visionaries Spectral Knights Capture Chariot
Yes I did. Originally I was going to use screen-caps from the series for both the totems and power staffs, but found it impossible finding any that were suitable. Since I cant draw I instead used photos of actual animals edited them. Some like Darkstorm and Cravix's required some editing.
