That is pretty cool looking… I'm not sure I'm ready for a big company to go 15mm…? But it might create more players to fight.

I am, but am not sure I can afford them. A bit on the fence on the Covenant vessel too. Looks good from the side, and a few other angles, but silly from others. Pelican is decent enough. Will probably have to go with proxy forces instead, which is fine by me, given the huge savings, especially on the Dropships.

That thing looks like it could me piloted by two 20-28 mm figures or 1 30+ mm.

Very nice, but the proposed price tag is a little eyewatering, granted they are big! If I had money to burn I'd probably buy a second box set to bulk out the forces from the first, or tanks, probably tanks!

Will post pics when near computer. But the Halo Micro Ops seem just a tad larger than the 15mm line. My ghost is close to the boxed ones. The metal model at Hastings I am looking at is much smaller for the Pelican only about 6 to 7 inches, but as you measure center to center should be ok. Have a few landing pods from Micro Ops as well, and a couple gun emplacements. When building the ghosts I suggest not gluing the two major parts together until painted, as the grunt will be very hard to get to. The base set resin is great, the metal has a few fiddling bits but looks great. Will have to make my own bases as I want them single rounds, that will fit into the games rectangular type ones.

I can't seem to find the suggested prices. What are these going to run?

75 Pounds but they are adding more to them we just do not know how much yet. I will stick with the metal models as they are around 30 pre-painted.
