Thank you Ken, The NSL and ESU ones seem to have a less
anthropomorphic body with little or no waist. They look as though you might house the
pilot in the body with his legs in hips and arms in the shoulder of the walker –
another popular mecha convention. The NSL and ESU also have the advantage
of having a number of options for pose and gear. One reason for considering this is that
the GZG minis are much cheaper than the DP9 minis and less “anime”
looking. I’d love to see the pics, or even if
anyone has these and can snap a pic for me comparing 15mm infantry with the
25mm NSL or ESU Pas. Eli -----Original Message----- 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. Ken |
