I picked up off of ebay for $12 USD one of these to see how they look next to my 10mm troopers. They are a bit too small for 15mm infantry to fit inside but as a drone perhaps? Sorry I don't have any 6mm handy but they would work good for that too I would think.

The Mobile Workers are some of the best designs to come out of the Gundam franchise recently. Way more inspired than the grunt Mobile Suits (the Gundam-sized mechs). The first three episodes feature them heavily, both the CGS/Tekkadan and Gallhajorn models. They keep getting use so far, even in space as tiny EVA pods (which basically makes them a mix between a Ball and a Scopedog) |

Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans is taking a different direction in it's story from other Gundam series. Mobile suits are supposedly rare making those mobile workers more common. Tekkadan has only the Barbatos Gundam and mobile workers as the series begins. Did your mobile worker come with the work arms that can be swapped for the guns on the side? Or the cargo bed that mounts on the back? Which is why they're called mobile workers. They function in space as well. |

I was super happy to find they made them. After watching the the show I had to have some but figured they would be overlooked in model form for the stock gundams. I got mine here. It didn't come with arms. A bunch of other stuff I am not sure what I am going to do with, but no other options for it. auction There is a second style that has the addition of a nitro/space rocket pack. It doesn't seem to have other options though.

I'd use it for 15mm myself, but I've seen the show and the things are almost as cramped inside as a cold war Russian APC… |
