Need to do some markings an weathering.

Was it a bitch to build?  Do you reckon it's worth the price tag?

[Anpu]

Not too hard to build rather nice kit I think. For me it was definately worth the money.

Also haven't been following, and I usually am a sucker for anything 'Aliens.'

I will say, handsome as it is, one look at how Ferro and Spunkmeyer filled the cockpit, and no way a proper APC could be carried.

Real scale falls to game/table scale, I guess. Hardly the first time, no?

None of the APC models I have fits but it is close for the smaller one. Still a nice model and still a hefty size and a prescence on the table, but correctly scaled no.

Doug I have that one too. I admit that the proportions are a bit off, but it still resembles the prototype well enough to recognize the iconic dropsip and it is still HUGE. The Neca APC is not too wide to fit into the loading bay, just a few millimetres too long. However this would not be noticeable when it is positioned on the extracted ramp (and you wouldn´t spoil a model by putting it inside a closed loading bay just to know it is inside, would you?  )

I got the hint from LAF member Sgt. Scream that there is a ride for my Marines:

The model is from Neca and goes quite well with the AvP miniatures by Prodos scale-wise. Wheels and guns can be moved on the model. The prototype´s wheels were said to be 159cm diameter. Look at the Marine who seems to be a rather tall bloke then. The overall impression suits my taste though.

I have not finished my dropship yet, therefore I can not yet show pictures with the APC on the ramp, but I will as soon as it will be built. In my opinion the price is too steep, but apart from scratchbuilding there is no real alternative if you want that model on your table.

Nice additions.

[Sgt. Scream]

Great job on your latest additions.

Progress finally! I also played another game of AvP last week and look forward to expand the collection of models a bit more...
