Mauler, Mongoose, Wolverine
After building my Wolverine in the colors of the Slaughters Marauders Lynx, Duane J asked me if I would build an actual Lynx.

I hadn't plan to, because frankly I always found the Lynx to be a bit silly - a single single crew operated vehicle with a turret way too small for its cannon. But I've long wanted to build a low silhouette tank destroyer/assault gun type vehicle on the Wolverine chassis, so when I finally had a go at that, I thought it was only appropriate to use the gun from the Mauler.
My Mongoose basically packs the same main gun punch as the classic Mauler, but in a lower silhouette vehicle than either the Mauler or the Wolverine. In this design, the single crewman configuration makes much more sense to me. Of course, a vehicle like this has limitations, but so long as it deploys with other elements guarding its flanks and avoids built-up areas, it seems like a solid addition to the Joe arsenal.
