You can "build" your own Battlesuit Prototype by gluing a Vulkan Battlesuit on a bronze base and repaint the armour from grey to white and some parts of the shoulder red and silver ...
You can "build" your own Free Marine Hero by gluing Free Marine Soldier on a golden base and repaint his hair, weapon and some parts of his armor.
Any other ideas?
Why stop with using existing figs. The group I play in are planning on using various figs from other games to make custom figs. We are getting a good idea of how they assign abilities and are going to try to create new ones. Inquisitor Liss is planning on trying to make a Mitch Hunter fig from old GW inquisitor figs. We figure there is a whole world of stuff we could use to comtinue making this a fun game even if FFG is going to continue it.

I thought about getting the Capitol Orca Battlesuit into the game, because it was a pretty cool model in warzone. The standard variant is armed with a long ranged cannon for tank hunting, an anti-personnel shotgun under the hull, and a gunner operated machine gun on top. I compared the warzone stats for orca and vulcan battlesuits, and made a custom card for playtesting it. You can check it out here:

At the moment i use a cardboard proxy, until i can figure out how to best build one from scratch. I just printed this, put it on cardboard, cut it out, and mounted it on a styrofoam base:

Here's the Orca in action with some 3D Terrain:

Wow! I'm impressed. The terrain and the card are just genius stuff. Seems like alot of fun. Keep up the good stuff, keep it coming!
Very cool and I think the card is very balanced. Be neat if you can figure out to make an actual model. Even if you get it close it be cool. Maybe a plastic GW sentinel and a capitol figure from MC on it. Still very cool.

Trow: Whenewer Orca deals damage, If you can move this unit up to 3 hexy in the line of fire. For each hex on which the unit can not move, the unit assigned to 1 damage to the ability to piercing.
