in my continued proxies quest for AI I have found two exellent minis.

These are the new "True" N scale dropships from Reaper minis. ?These APCs are from their CAV line and are 10mm in scale.

I think they woulk be perfect as company transports of IG or any other regular joe sci-fi 6mm trooper that may need them.

I have taken some pictures next the the new FW Thunderhawk.

for other ideas

I believe that the left one is the Hedgehog, and the righ tone is the Czar (although I could be wrong and Serg Crunch will know better).

I really like the Czar, and have been waiting for the true scale of this ship for a while.

I like the larger of the two, it has a real feel of that Drop Ship from 'Aliens' to it... :) :cool:

Nice. I think either one would be fine, although I do prefer the larger one.

Yes they are large but if you consider them ramps that lower then they seem perfect in 6mm... :;):

You got it in one.

I've been expecting a Czar as part of a prize package for some time now and plan on it doing double duty between an APC in CAV and a dropship in 6mm.  The Czar was never released in a reduced scale version.  If any of yall are thinking of getting a Hedgehog, make sure you get the "True N" version that comes one to a blister.  The others would be too small to work as a dropship.

I agree I got both the old Hedgehog and the new Hedghog. ?This new size works.

Sgt Crunch,

Please let me know of any other APCs out there that may work.

I plan on getting the Badger



but I'm also looking at the Baron



and the Merlin



I was wondering if these are APCs or just gunships. ?Please let us know.

The "True N" Badger should be good.  Judging from the price for it, it should be friggin' 'uge!  I'm not big on the Merlin, but that's a personal preference thing.  Really just about any of them could stand in as company troop transports for 6mm games, though I'd probably go for the ones that look "drop-shippy" (that's a technical term yall).  When I come back from ReaperCon in May I fully intend on having some of the rescaled gunships with me.

When they get to resizing it (should be in the near future) the Lynx might not be a bad option either.


Here are some early builds of some models that will be hitting production later:
Syram Condor



Koda Works Kraken



Don't know when they're due for release though.  Really I think you guys have hit all the flying APC options from the CAV line.  Now, if you want something really big, check this out...

(Keep in mind, CAVs average about 2.5 ~ 3" in height)

It's hard to tell on the Merlin.  

Thanks for the advice.  anf the Lynx will be great when it comes out.  

Thanks for the previews.
