Convert a sketchup file

Can some convert this sketch up file? I have the link here: since I can't download anything at the moment (which is why I didn't download sketch up):

If I remember tomorrow, I'll give it a shot (you can always private message me later to catch my attention

).

i iz sleepy...

EDIT: Seems too high-poly, though I may be wrong. I'll have to see when I import into Blender.

EDIT: Ack, I get an error trying to open it in Blender. Sorry.

Oh well thanks anyway.

Wait! Is it possible to get rid of the shield and lower the amount of polygons? Take the colors out if you have to too.

Can you do another one if the previous one doesn't work?
OH YEAH! Check it out:

Yes, but unfortunately I can't get it to import into Blender at all, and that means I can't modify the model at all. (I just re-downloaded the model and still get the error)

Perhaps someone who has Sketchup installed (I use just Blender) will have some more luck with it.

You need collada files (.dae), not sketchup files to get it to import into Blender.

I have Sketchup. How do I do it?

Just open it and go to File>Export>3d model and select .dae as the file type.

It has the Collada option to download (which is why I don't have certain Noble team models; they're only available as .skp), but I get an error.

Just clarifying.
