I've always liked that the Robotech Monster from the Robotech series. I used to own a model but lost it a long time ago. Now I am thinking about re-acquiring it and putting it to use in my 40k Apoc or even regular games.

Here is some technical specs for the Monster.

And here is a photo of how the model/toy actually looks like.

Here's another.

One more photo.

I'm thinking about creating a ruleset for it for both regular 40K and Apocalypse. The size of the toy is probably a little smaller than a land raider, but that's about 1/100 scale. I believe 40k is about 1/48th scale possibly, so if you scale it up, it may be more similar in size to the Warhound Titan.

Before diving into this, I'd like to get some input as to what you guys think we could use for it's rules and cost. Also, what army do you think this would fit the best. I'm thinking Imperial or maybe even Tau. Thanks.

...Robotech? Never heard of it.

Also, it looks like you could just use that as a Basilisk, or is it gigantic?
