Bandai 1/100 Macross Missile Phalanx

Here's the Monster in Battletech markings being marshalled out of its parking spot.  This one is the 160th scale model.  It didn't have decals or instructions when I found it for 5.00 at a contest.

 

Great idea for a vignette and a fun take on the monster.  What did you use for the person guiding them out?  Having something like them around could help with setting scale of these mecha if I ever put a scene together.

I think the figure was from an old Airfix C-130 kit or the Hasegawa figures for flight line support.  The scale is so slight, 1/60th and 1/72nd it really doesn't matter.  I got the idea from my wife who used to be a C-130 Crew Chief and she had to marshal her aircraft in and out.

She made a great suggestion.  i'll be keeping an eye out for figures like that.  I've a vague recollection of photo etch figures like that somewhere.  Time to do some digging. :)

You could try the Hasegawa figure sets for their fighter kits.

I couldn't find anything by Hasegawa but there's a promising 1/72 set by Fujimi that's now on my wishlist.  Thanks for the tip!
