So this is an interesting video. I'm not 100% sure what the deal is with this model. Obviously, it's based on the Metal Slug tank. I've never heard of the company before. It says 1/35 scale but it seems like it would fit in perfectly with 28~32mm games.

At first I thought was it was just a recast bootleg and wasn't going to bother recording this, but no, the only plastic model kit of the Metal Slug tank I'm aware of was made by Wave and was a very traditional tank kit build (it lacked all the internals and pistons for one thing). That would make this an original design, unless there was some crazy garage kit that I'm not aware of they based this on. Yeah, it's not licensed by SNK but it's not like there isn't a bit of a grey area in mini sculptors making stuff based on the likeness of others...
Some cool things included besides all the pistons and suspension bits that I don't bother showing off are all the item boxes just like in the games (with decals as well), transparent armor bits to replace all the colored armor (and show off the internals), cannon effect parts, ammo bits, and a flexible display stand as well.
Where can you find it? I suggest search around for metal slug, super vehicle, ms evolve, or something along those lines. Plus there's also the tank mechs out there in the wild if you're interested Good luck!
MISSION COMPLETE!
