[GZG] Re: 25mm SG PAs as 15mm Combat Walkers?
Hi Eli,
Yeah, I have a couple of platoons (each of 4 walkers) of the 25mm OUDF PA figures serving as support to a 15mm Japanese corporate assault company. I left off the shoulder mount/sensor option, so they have a kind of smoke stack arrangement on one shoulder, and therefore carry a APSW/autocannon in one arm and a GMS(P) or multiple rocket pack on the other (depending on your preference). Painted in a kind of bamboo coloured wash with a big Japanese insignia on the front, they look pretty OK with the 15mm figures. And quite in keeping with the Japanese fascination for mechs.
Sorry that the figures are packed at present due to house-moving, but if I can get at them I'll try to stick a couple of photos up somewhere.
Not sure how the other 25mm PA will fit in. I used the OUDF becuase it looked like I could claim the pilot was fitted nicely within the torso. Some of the other figures look a bit problematical for actually containing a 15mm operator.

Has anybody tried using 25mm SG Pas as 15mm Combat Walkers. They look
like they'd be on the smallish end of Class 1. The ESU and NSL ones
look to be the best for this (less anthro) than the NAC or FSE. The UO
ones might work too. If you were going for the heavy duty anime look,
the Japanese ones might work well.
