and an online compendium listing:

So if a Tomahawk (aka Warhammer) is 12.7 meters and 31,300 kg, and the Monster
is 22.46 meters tall and 285,500kg, then the battle tech conversion based on
scaled up weight of 70 tons for the Warhammer is 638.5 tons. Anyone recall the
height of the Warhammer in BattleTech?

The original Warhammer was a 70 ton mech.

I cant recall the exact height but I know they were comparable in both the BT
game and the Macross series. Nice links by the way.

Seems like the scale heights is off between the series...The weights certainly

Well, I have a Destroid Monster kit in 1/160th scale.  It's about 7"
tall.
I also have one of the (I think it was Matchbox) die-cast toys.  It's
about 4" tall.

The Brigade model is way cool, and I will have one, but a 1/300th scale
Destroid Monster would just make me drool.:)

Long ago.  I actually got it from a friend in trade.  It's die-cast
metal with the main (back mounted) guns done with grey plastic barrels. If I
dig it out of my multitude of boxes any time soon, I'll take a pic and will
post it.
