Well you got a good point there S&H might be costly, but I think you can
still find this battletech mini in stores, plus they are bringing it back at
battletech's home page. What I did is, took this model, cut the front head
with some shoulder and tail with some rearend off a plastic stegasarus, then
glued them to it filled any gaps with green stuff and it came out pretty
nice. But your Idea sounds good also, that is whats nice bout netepic use
proxies don't have to use one type of model.
