the folks at GDW used ROCO figs for all the vehicles in the pictures from
Striker 2 among other things.

The Marder Hull with some mods works well.

The Cover of Striker 2 shows several examples of this although the infantry
figs look like Games Workshop Imperial Guards, the vehicles look like Marder
hulls. I have gamed with the GDW folks, and they always tended to use whatever
figs looked good for playtest games.

I've been reading the letters about the ROCO conversions with interests. Does
this place have a web site I could get to to look at their models?

ROCO does have a website somewhere, but the 'Roco Minitanks Collecter's
Club' site seems to have loads of images - most of the Minitank line.

Very useful website - now if only my local hobby shop didn't take
forever to get orders in...

Sorry about that, everyone! I thought I had the number written down properly,
but somewhere on the way from web browser to scratchpad to email it got
garbled...

Damn Geocities numbered URLs...(I've _got_ a Geocities numbered URL, and
I even find myself typing my own URL wrong...great service, but the
URLs...)

The Roco Club page is a great resource, though.
