“You need that shiftin’ ?”

If you need something shifting, then the 25th century equivalent of a forklift is the power loader. This is a large exo-skeleton with hydraulic claws at the end of two arms, and the ability to lift very large weights*. Designed by the Guiyang Huánglóng Hydraulics Development Co., this type can be found in docks, ports, spaces stations and on board larger ships in the cargo hold.

Ably sculpted by David Sheff, this is a multipart model which is 3D printed in grey resin, and has just arrived on the website in the growing 28mm SF range. It comes complete with a separate power-supply/APU which connects to the back for charging.

*Apparently they’re also good for knocking alien queens out of airlocks, or so we’re told.
