Here are the game pieces I'm talking about:
linkI know that the superbattle droids (blue and black, on the left, in the above link) can be used for 15mm, as seen here:
TMP link TMP link TMP link link But what about all the little vehicles on the right side of this picture link (black, blue, yellow and red)?
linkDo people gaming 6mm or even 3mm have any use for them? Perhaps simply as drones, if not as actual vehicles? Just wondering. Dan |

I planned on using some of them as drones for 15mm, but I haven't done anything with them yet. |
Cacique Caribe | 11 Apr 2012 8:13 a.m. PST |
Which ones? The little black and blue ships or the red and yellow truck thingies? Dan |
John Leahy | 11 Apr 2012 8:19 a.m. PST |
Hey Dan. the black and blue ones are AAT's. The other ones are called Juggernaught or Turbo tanks. John |
Cacique Caribe | 11 Apr 2012 8:22 a.m. PST |
Good to know what they're called. Hmm. So the black and blue AAT pieces are these "tanks":
The pieces themselves seem to be about 21mm long, 17 wide and 8mm tall. I guess they are supposed to represent something with a length of around 9.75 meters. Based on the length, I guess that makes the AAT pieces 1/464 scale, right? While the red and yellow pieces of the Juggernauts seem to be 22mm long, 9mm wide and 10mm tall.
The specs for those read: Length 49.4 meters Width 19.6 meters Height/depth 30.4 meters So, based on the length alone, that makes the Juggernaut game pieces 1/2245 scale, right? Dan |
Brother Jim | 11 Apr 2012 8:47 a.m. PST |
CC I have both and which one I would use would depend on the army's "tech level". |
Cacique Caribe | 11 Apr 2012 8:53 a.m. PST |
Excellent. I guess I hadn't considered keeping them before, for use as drones for 15mm. I almost threw them out. Here are some close-up pics of the AAT and Juggernaut pieces: link Thanks, Dan |
Macunaima | 11 Apr 2012 9:49 a.m. PST |
Both the AATs and Juggernaughts would be quite acceptable for 3mm. The juggernaughts, in particular, would make absolutely killer 3mm sci-fi command vehicles. Now I'm thinking of getting me some. How can I do that?

Macunaima, I bought mine from ebay: auction I was after just the super battle droids but got the rest of the stuff too. Dan |

I thought the Clone Troopers and Super Battledroids were closer to 20mm than 15mm. |
Cacique Caribe | 11 Apr 2012 9:52 p.m. PST |
Cmdr, Here's a comparison pic, with one of the battle droids: link link TMP link I plan to use mine as Cylon-like droids. So it's a good thing that they are a little taller than typical 15mm humans. TMP link Dan |
Macunaima | 11 Apr 2012 10:44 p.m. PST |
I'd probably not want more than a dozen Juggernaughts. |

@ CC; get out of my head! I was looking at those last night wondering if one could do head swaps monopoly stormtrooper
auctionthought was one would just cast and recast the heads until you have all the ones you want and then some |
Cacique Caribe | 06 May 2013 11:34 a.m. PST |
Shhh. That sort of talk is taboo in these here parts. Dan |
War Monkey | 06 May 2013 11:41 a.m. PST |
You mean "The Shine" don't ya |
THEAXECHIPMUNK | 06 May 2013 6:14 p.m. PST |
Cant you get them on some replacement site? |
Cacique Caribe | 06 May 2013 6:39 p.m. PST |
Are you talking about the Super Battle Droids? If so
auction Dan |
War Monkey | 06 May 2013 9:05 p.m. PST |
My thought as mentioned earlier was to get both the "Risk" Clones and the "Monopoly" Stormtrooper a few of each if they are the right size, then make head spurs from them, make molds and cast them |

The question is; if anyone has these items could you please post comparison picture if you would please |
darclegion | 27 Jun 2013 1:04 p.m. PST |
I do have them, I painted and based them. I will take some pics and some comparison shots to say 15mm scale. I will even make some comparison shots of the WOTC SW figures. IMO they are close to 15mm scale. The vehicles however ard more like 3mm scale or slighly larger
maybe 6mm at the most. I painted up the Clones and the Battle Droids. I use the Battle droids as Cylons as well. I will post them later. tom tidesofwargaming.blogspot.com |
