I really like this Vehicle picture I am trying to figure it out for 15mm.

Thinking basing on GZGs small wheels, with the arms being closed.

Roughly Jeep sized (1/2 inch x 1 inch)

Any Ideas?

My son and I are playing lots of Borderlands at the moment. An excellent game, with some interesting vehicles !

I'm a bit reminded both of the air car from Blade Runner and the Batmobile/Tumbler.

I don't recall any toys small enough to qualify, but I may have missed something.

There's a small itch in the back of my brain that suggests I may have seen something size-appropriate elsewhere, but it's just not coming to me.

I hate that…

Hmmm… The neat part of the vehicle is the fulcrum suspension (jargon?). I don't know of a match, but Critical Mass has some arcfleet vehicles that have a separate tread or grav foot where each wheel would be:

Maybe you could convert the command vehicle?

Yeah that one looks like a fun challenge Bro.
Good luck.

Mattel's Hot Wheels Custom Motors Starter Set Batmobile seems to be a good size for 15mm and has some of those Borderlands elements. And it's customizable.

The tumbler is much larger than I am thinking. Though it is a great idea for some other projects.
