For the Troop transport I started with a Star Wars Imperial Troop transport. I dremeled the crap out of the top and popped in a Moray turret. I also included a railing that is from a Wendy's kid's meal soccer net. Sorry kid's!. I had to also dremel the troop holders to compensate for the holster on the legs. I painted it that good old red and blue. I wanted to give it a classic look. I used the Crimson tank stickers. The gunner was from a ROC Snake armor. I have some what of a back story after killing his 3rd in charged he was drugged and woke up in the turret of the BATT. He first wanted revenge but accepted his feared and invulerable status. As you can see with his personal touch to his vest "shoot me". I still need to make a driver to finish off the crew. The Wolf was in bad shape I removed the old stickers cleaned it up shot it white and Cobra stickered it up done!

Great work! I like this a lot! I remember this SW vehicle, and I never thought it made sense, but the way you've done it for transporting BATs makes total sense to me. Very nice.
