battletech buffalo drone bomb miniature?

Interested in fielding this for Alpha Strike -- http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Card/5777?skill=4

Anyone know of a mini that's close?

I picked up the Buffalo transport from this page... But it's HUGE, not sure the scale is right -- http://www.daemonscape.com/contents/en-uk/d4_01.html

It will be bigger than a hex. I made buffalo proxies by cutting simple shapes from foam.

[Weirdo]

Yeah, unit that big is either going to be bigger than a hex, or look way too tiny. That Buffalo you found actually looks perfect, both in terms of size and appearance.

[shadow5606]

Didn't realize these were so large! Here it is next to my Atlas. But you guys are saying that's appropriate for the Buffalo?

[Giovanni Blasini]

Yeah, that seems about right.  Mass-wise, the Buffalo is the same 100 tons as the Atlas, and carries 40 tons of shipping containers.  When you consider that most tractor-trailers are 21 meters in length, that mini is easily big enough to represent a Buffalo.

[Weirdo]

It's a 100-ton vehicle that's mostly empty space, and by the rules it should be two levels tall, about the same as the Atlas.

I'd actually want something a bit bigger, but that's a good compromise between visual scale and not taking up too much space on a hex map.

I had this saved in my "proxy" folder, for a rainy day: http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/15mmSF/EuroFed/SF15-403.html  Had to go up to 15mm scale to find it, and it needs work, but would do in a pinch.

I had no idea that brigade models had that many 15mm scale vehicles now. Nifty!
