Can anyone of the 1000 purchasers of the Void Shields post the dimensions for those of us who are looking at foamcore, ruins bits and plasti-card?

I did a little bit of guess work, basing it off of (What i assume is) a Rhino infront of the generator on the cover of the white dward issue.
Based off of measurements of my brother's Rhino I guessed the generator to be just shy of 12 inches tall, and 4 and a half inches wide at the base.
Rhino Dimensions: 3 inches wide, just shy of 2 inches tall.
Edit: Crappy photoshop skills show the measurements  I angled the rhino the same way it is angled in the picture then measured the distance between the parts you could see.

The base looks to be about the size of a Vengeance battery.

Compared on Iron Warrior marines standing beside it, the picture on page 2 of White Dwarf Weekly 8 seems to have the Void Shield Generator in its real size. That would put the base at 4-4½" wide as suggested by Tazay, but height at 9".
If my measurements are correct, the perfect base structure for homemade Void Shield Generator would be the tower base from Fortress of Redemption (for both size and style). Although you aren't far from truth by using two or three adjacent Manufactorum panels either.

That place is the harsh dark future far left with only war left. |

As an owner of both Rhinos and Vengeance Batteries I can say that the VSG is bigger than the Vengeance Battery.

Yeah just saw that picture had to hunt like mad online to find more pics though xD
I agree, beside the Iron Warriors it looks more around 9 inches.
