Hit the Target today, and lo and behold, the toy aisle contained the new Halo Micro Ops toys. I was looking forward to using some of the pieces for terrain or what have you, so I picked up the Wolf Spider vs. Ghost pack, and took a couple pics. (I also picked up that plastic ruler for the sole purpose of taking these comparison pics.)
Wolf Spider turret, Khurasan Kontrol soldier, HALO dude. (I never played the games.)
Ghost vehicle, Kontrol soldier, alien dude who won't stand up.
HALO dude, GZG civilian, poor lighting, Ghost with alien carjacker, Kontrol soldier, Wolf Spider turret, extra plastic bit?
So, yeah. Some of the vehicles and terrain might work, but the figs themselves are clearly closer to 20-25mm than 15.
Thanks for the pics! The turret, at least form here, looks usable.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the turret is a good takeaway. Not worth the price of the pack by itself, though.
DeleteGreat idea. Turret seems to fit well. Perhaps modding the bike in someway and you have some sort of gunship/light car
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same, shouldn't be too tough. But not something I'd need to invest in heavily.
DeleteGaming afficinado JRacel put up some pics of the helicopter thingy here: https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=C81057216B240D0C&id=C81057216B240D0C%212675
ReplyDeleteLooks good. The 'Spartans' or halo dude, are close to 7ft tall in the games. Some genetically modified soldier back story. In the games you tower over normal troops. The aliens (Covenant Elites) are even taller than that. So maybe their scale isnt too far off 15mm, but they probably wont look right against other troops...
