Marx pressed steel tank, wooden wheels and turning turret???? What is it and where did it come from??

I do not think that is Marx. With Marx you never know. But the wooden wheels and overall appearance make it look like one of the floor toys produced during WWII, when metals were rationed.  I would think there is too much metal in it for WWII production.  Just viewed from above it looked to have a wooden body, which would be typical for WWII toys.

the mini tank used on the Marx unloading flat is known as the critter...

i've got to agree with C.H. in that the wheels on your tank do not look much like any other wooden Marx wheels and knowing Marx, he often used common parts among different toys as an economic measure.

Ok Gary and C.H. really appreciate the replies on this tank.  I did some more research and found out that it originally was one of two tanks that were attached to the bottom of a Buddy L transport plane.  Most of the original tanks were lost and I'm sure kids played with them and they were the first things lost.  I included a few pics of a plane that I found with the tanks mounted to it. 

Thanks for the pics on the critter tank have bought a sold a few of those over the years as well as multiple other styles of marx tank.  When I first got it I just had banked on the fact that it was marx but wrong was I!!  Thanks again on the replies and hopefully if nothing else it helps out others with this same style tank lying around.
