    Yes. Indeed it is. My passion is strongly rooted in this one ever since I first saw the movie in theater. This is my gift to the fans. This model is highly articulated depends on how you set up the parts.

    Nice! Would you estimate the scale to about 1/16? Trying to determine if I could convert a figure to go with it, or might you be planning a trooper to go with it?
    How to order?

    So to answer your question, Yes...I am planning a trooper to go with. The model fits to the 3 3/4 inch action figures although this is not a toy.

    Jason...here you go...lol...a little smaller though...1/35th scale. It's on eBay.
    They are a little more careful about calling it "Starship Troopers" for the legal reasons I suppose.

    Looks great, mine is 3.75 (1:18th) (3 3/4). You can easely adjust the height with longer stick for the dynamic movement. With setting up the parts in different way you can bring more life into it.

    Hey, I'm sure some bugs are smaller/ larger and not all the same size, I think a 1/16 guy would be OK. Considering I have 1/16 and 120mm guys that are probably a scale foot taller/shorter than each other. the difference shouldn't be a problem. Especially if they are ripped in half!

    Dear JasonB, I think the same as you, but the scale is 1:18. I really appreciate your interest, it means alot to me, so I don't want to mislead you...the scale is 1:18. It may be fit for your figures, but I am not sure. The good news is, sooner or later but I will release a mobil infantry figure to the kit. :)

    I would be very interested to see how your Sci-Fi mobile infantry figure would look like. There have been some 1/32 and 1/24 trooper figures made before. Some trooper figures look more like the movie (hardly high-tech and not a full body armor suit), and others that follow the book more (high-tech looking because the troopers in the book wear jetpacks and head-to-toe hard body armor). It all depends on how one interprets the book's description. And it's really hard to find any 1:18 or 1:16 futuristic high-tech Sci-Fi infantry figure wearing a helmet, hard body armor, and holding a futuristic rifle, so any futuristic infantry figure would be welcome.

    What scale do you plan to make it? 1:18 or 1:16? 1:16 would probably appeal to more people.

    Dear Ong, please be advised, my mobil infantry figure (movie version) will be available in 1:18 scale because I would like to attach the figure to my Arachnid kit (each sold separately). I am also planing to do a power armor suit from the book.

    I have just purchased this book from ebay, so the mobil infantry unit is definitely coming.

    Sounds good! I'm excited and I look forward to seeing how your mobile infantry, both versions, look like.
