Found 2 sellers on eBay. The one in Britain is the cheapest and free shipping.
eBay nr. 231677532484
I bought one. I'm very curious to the background story of the War Rig.
"UNDERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"OVERSTEER" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"HORSEPOWER" is how fast you hit the fence.
"TORQUE" is how far you take the fence with you.

The very first Mad Max comic was released in Egypt, presumably around 500 B.C.

So is anyone going to spill some beans on the War Rig story or what? :)

I just got the confirmation that it is half way the channel :D
I'm very curious to this book. I don't mind it contains all the 4 comics I already have separately. I'm really curious to the background story of the War Rig.
When it's in, you will know more ;)

Its an 8 page story with each page detailing how Joe and his men came upon the various components that would make up the War Rig. It does shed at least a little more light on the inner workings of the Citadel, such as who was in charge of constructing Joe's armada. Its nothing terribly in-depth or detailed, but its certainly entertaining and worth a read.

Interesting that they explain how the Tatra T815 truck was modified into the War Rig that makes all of the modern vehicles in Fury Road all built in 1989 like there was a cut off point ( Humvee , Nissan , Tatra )
The story also verifies the nuclear strikes and radiation sickness and the targetting of an inland army base , theres also some quite nasty killings and the part about them finding the secret compartment in the War Rig tanker trailer 2 years after it was captured complete with the rotting corpses of the trucks former owners wife and kid.
It also explains how they end up with the older cars which are former hot rods owned by car nuts ok enough spoilers go and buy it :P

I'm confused by this sentence.

How would the war rig being a Tatra mean all modern vehicles in Fury Road were built in '89? Did you mean to say all of them were '89 or earlier models? Are you saying the Tatra T815 ceased production in '89 and nobody has been able to ID any other car in the film as having been a more recent year model than '89?

Please clarify. This is important!!!!
