Not sure how many Aliens movies will be made so the "Aliens XXXII" is a joke :)
How about a 1/10th scale (12"wide x 36"long) Wheeled Armored Personnel Carrier from the Aliens Franchise (http://www.starshipmodeler.co/gallery15/tc_020912_rcapc.html)? This monster was built by Tom Chaney and he has shared a few images of his scratch-built remote control model over at Starship Modeler.

Tom has uploaded a video of his model to YouTube that shows the model in operation

I picked up one of the APCs in 72nd scale and have been looking for something planet side to go with it. Found a couple sites that have some possibilities.
