We were speaking about how there were no "large" landers for 15mm when one person suggested using the 25mm landers for the 15mm figures.

Here are a couple for you to see.

Make your own judgment call.

The former looks impressive; the latter has a cockpit which is a bit large for 15mm. But that big 'un IS nice.... :D

I think the person who took the picture suggested that maybe a conversion would make sense. Sort of give it a crew somehow and that way the scale would blurr more.

Yup - cover up the glazing too, perhaps.

I actually think the bigger one looks better as a 15mm transport. Especially with the vehicle coming out!  :cool:

Sorry Chris, not a scale I play in so I have not kept up on what is out there.  :blush:

But I imagine the 28mm could be used for 20mm as well.  :D

Funny, C-130 was what I thought of when I saw the picture as well.  :laugh:

Now the only question is, what about the crew area? Will it stop the scale adjustment in the minds of those who see it? Would someone need to make adjustments to finalize the scale shift?

On a side note, another 28mm Dropship that will be out soon could also be worth looking at as a large 15mm Dropship.

Starship Troopers is going to release the Viking Landing Boat.

Here is a working model:
