I fear for the stability of this model. It's very nice, if utterly impractical to transport.

No kidding. WTF is up with mini designers? Everything has a huge top/body and ridiculously undersized legs (or whatever) to support it. SM dreads, most PP heavy jacks, etc. For the love fark sculpt something that looks like it would be able to stand up on its own people.

Amen to that.
I quite like it, but the sheer fear of the weak resin join is terrifying.

I won't think it will be that bad at all. It looks like there will be a joint at the base of the tail, about a 1/4" below the armpit as you look at the photo. That would give you a great angle to drill down the length of the tail to the base, simultaneously pinning the tail to the base, the body to the tail, and structurally reinforcing the tail.

From a design prespective the resin body should not be that heavy and such big base should be more than enough support.

The Khador Gun Carriage is listed as $84.99, I would expect this to be similar.

Very, very cool.
I don't have time for Warmachine just now, but this may very well wind up filling some sort of role on my Necron army. As an easy option, wuite possibly just as a Monolith...

Too small for a Monolith I'd say. Would make for a cool Destroyer Lord or Tomb Spyder though.

The height looks more or less right... it's just the bulk (or lack thereof) of the lower half that's a problem... and that's easily compensated for with some 'creative' basing. Mount him on a pile of rocks, and allow opponents to target his base elements as well as the model himself.

It's cool, but it looks very much like an over the top zoanthrope and therefore will be rather difficult to make stand up...

Honestly... I think the upper body is just extremely oversized compared to the rest, which makes it look dumb... :\
When are we gonna see Hordes equivelant of these things?
