This reminds me; I have to add Sentry Guns to my ShockForce Aliens page.
Anyway....
There was a pack of true 25mm Sentry Guns produced by Leading Edge
Games. Not bad figures, but kinda drab. They do not look much like the
ones from the movie. Grenadier/Scotia/etc. produced some Resin SGuns
for the Kryomek line. These look more like permanent installations than
anything else, but they are VERY nice indeed. And just last week, I saw
a pack of SGuns for White Wolf's "Trinity" line. Excellent sculpting,
though they may be a bit big for some--they are 28mm scale. I'm
certainly going to get a few packs, though, for use with my Grenadier
"Future Warriors".
Lastly, didn't GZG produce some mobile SGuns? I have at least one of
them--a Gatling Gun mounted on a small hover chassis--and I seem to
remember a GMS version, as well. Does GeoHex produce these guys?
