Robotech/Macross 1/200 scale stuff

Been picking at doing a Robotech 1/200 scale setup. I have some official Veritechs, and am unable to get the Zentradi Battle Pods as they are very rare and expensive, so I came up with a cheaper solution. Mechwarrior Clix. I took the Night Stalker and hacked off the arms and top turret, then I repainted the whole thing. here are my results:
And this is what it is supposed to look like:
Anyways, if you guys are interested, I'll keep the post up to date as I work on it. I just need about 11 more Night Stalkers . . . . . Good thing they are very cheap.

Not bad; if nothing else you can come up with a decent back story for it!

A fleet of Zentradi were isolated from the primary fleet hundreds of years ago, they became an independent entity able to reproduce, fix and engineer new equipment as there old stuff became damaged. This is their solution to the old design of the battle pod.

Thanks. There are far more details in my post on TMP.

Also, here is my Glaug, though it is not as nice as I'd like it to be, I think it still does the trick very well.

Second, I have a few Mechwarrior Clix that you're welcome to have.

Reinforcments have arrived:
The tanks I got many multiples of, and I got some multiples of a couple of those mechs as well. I have already started the hacking and painting on the battle pods and the Rifleman/Defender.
