Title: how big is HC Sentinel?
Post by: Trysop on February 17, 2011, 04:29:18 PM

Hello,

I am thinking about making a conversion and using this fella as the base model:

http://www.amazon.com/HeroClix-Heroclix-Marvel-Sentinel-Figure-new-boxed/dp/B000063RPR

The converted model is to be scaled as a big guy for 28mm and should stand about 55 to 65mm tall, but I just have no idea how big this model is.

If he is too huge is there anything similar in style kicking about that might be the right sort of size? Sorry to be a bit vague, I am really looking for a suitable dolly to convert and sculpt onto. I just never seem to be able to get the proportions right if I start from scratch.

Thanks

Hey
i dont have this Model so no Idea,but he looks very huge i would say he is at least 10cm tall  ???
As for other Options,What about the Iron Monger Mini from Heroclix he is about 60mm tall and much cheaper  :D

another Suitable might be the Power Armours from Scarab:

That looks like the one from the Days of Future Past boxed set, just measured mine and he's about 175mm tall once popped off his base (unless it's the action figure, in which case fairoak would be correct)

[edit for typo in the measurement - oops]

The one on Amazon is the original sentinel, he is about 12" tall. He's also really heavy and a pain to re-base.

Hello,

thanks fior the help with this guys, it looks like he would be far to big for my purposes.

However some of the other suggested models have real potential :)

Thanks for your help

Iron Monger was also released in four figure battle packs not too long ago.  I have seen them around pretty cheap, sometimes even in dollar stores.  Might be cheaper than getting him from Miniature Market.  He was a Unique or Super Rare at the time.
