Maschinen Krieger Movie Announced

Lego Movie & How to Train Your Dragon producer Roy Lee and Straight Outta Compton producer Scott Bernstein have collaboratively announced plans to work with Warner Bros. to produce an American film based on Japanese sculptor Kow Yokoyama’s 1982-1985 line of original “Maschinen Krieger” mecha model kits. Yokoyama’s original scratch built Maschinen Krieger power armor kits were featured in Hobby Japan magazine. In 1998 Yokoyama re-launched his original model building franchise under the name “Maschinen Krieger ZbV3000” (pronounced “Maschinen Krieger Zet Bee-vee Sanzen”) also known as “Ma.K.”
