these little gems are 1:144 scale made by one of my favorite companies- F-Toys of Japan. mine are converted for my Battletech universe, so no droid crews here. i had to have a few of these for modifying but i did leave one stock so you can see just how each one differs slightly in their load-outs. by the way, the stock AAT is the reddish-brown one.

Very nice. How big are they next to 15s though? ;) I'm thinking light tanks for a 15mm faction I need to armour up!

Very nice. I really like 10mm battletech/mechwarrior stuff, and these fit right in!

What kind of fluff have you created for them in BT, or are you using them to represent an existing unit?

Also, what's the white camo'd mech in the background?

these would make excellent light-to-medium sized tanks for 15mm.
that white mech in the background is a heavily modified MW targe mech.
my vehicle and mech creation software does not work with 64bit Windows Vista and i am too lazy to do it the old fashioned way so i have no fluff to speak of. besides, i hardly play anymore. i just enjoy the hobby right now.

Thanks for the info. I thought the cockpit looked a bit Targish, but I'd never seen one with arms.

If you haven't got much time to play, check out Mech Attack. It's cheap, dead simple and plays really fast. Our club's had a blast using it with rebased mechwarrior clix figs.
