Brigade games have just put these up on their blog for release early in new year, at 15mm they should scale in just about right with the X-Wing minis.

Reasonably priced turrets that tie in well with the original look of the movie… just scroll down to 15mm bunker…

I thought the X-Wing minis were in the 6mm zone. They're certainly not 15mm sized.

Don't you mean Brigade Models and not Brigade Games?

I don't think gun turrets such as these are scale specific-- 15mm ones would look just as good as 6mm ones.

Sorry Brigade Models, however link takes you to the page, looking at movie shots I think the turret will be spot on against the smaller x-wing models, giving the sense of scale of the Death Star

You'd have to cover over the turret roof hatches and disguise the rear door of the bunker, but I can see how it would work.

I have seen better in both paper and resin.

These are only the CAD images Vojvoda, Brigade models are excellent sculpts, if unsure as to the quality, check out their latest PACFED 15mm castings on their blog, latest at top of page and then scroll down to see other examples.
