After proxying these Support weapon, with broken guns and terminators for the past month I haven't been able to find any model similar to these at are the right size, also not that I think it would be common but it would have to be cheaper than GWs expensive ones.
the weapons pictures are here

please I don't mind using other company's models, as long as its cheaper than $40 a model, because I run 9 of these.
thx for any help.

You could probably do something cool with this

2 of them for the price of 1 GW support platform, and ther is unlikely to be a price hike going to Aus, other than postage.

These things might work as well, but at 15mm they mioght be a bit small

Or maybe something from the Dropzone Commander range with appropriate addditions?

thx for the post, those spider tanks look amazing and I'm planning on buying a set to test them because they look so much like the elder.

I used the lions from the high elf chariot with heavy weapons from the falcon/waveserpent heavy weapons sprues to make the 'grav platforms' for my guardian squads. And gave two guardians the wips from the dark eldar scourges that i used for my swooping hawks, I am pretty sure that those lions could be used for the heavy weapons platforms too if your into that sort of thing.
