Some Bombardier? The front is sort of Skidozer-ish.

this could be an Thiokol Spryte 1200 , grill position and ligths seem to fit

You always just post pics found on the web, why don't you also post the reference sites of these pics? Nothing gives us the vehicle model associated with the pic :p
(and it is more correct to cite the source of pics, or else some day we might be accused of "stealing" pics...)
That last one looks like the one from the movie, but it looks different from all others.

the last one looks slightly different but you can see a "Thiokol" badge on the front , cab is a bit different indee dbut you still see same side windows same track layout etc


I tend to post pics because sites have tendecy to go offline and many are adverts for sale and once they are solled the advert goes with it

Yes that's good to post the pic, but it is better to also include the link...

From where do come that last pic then?
(as the others look different, as well what I find when I search the name you gave)

was found searching LMC, LMC is Thiokol after early 80s (change of ownership) but products stayed the same

but the film date this is Thiokol

Indeed on the original pic the make is readable... unlike on the reduced pic posted here :p
