Contest: Name the Alien Bugs!

This post serves two purposes. First, we want to show off the aliens we've been working on! And second, we want you to name them and give them a backstory for Death Fields. The winner will officially be "The Namer", get their name on the box/descriptions, and take home 10 boxes of the charming little buggers. 

The three (or more you decide!) stages of bug life: egg, bug-ling, adult.

Bug 3/4 View

Bug Side View

Size Comparison 1

Size Comparison 2: you'll note that depending on the leg choices and positions they can be either closer to the ground or rearing/leaping/attacking as desired! 

If you'd like to submit your name and background ideas see below:

I’m not sure how far along you are but those legs seem very tiny at the tips, the eventual connection point with a base. It seems like it wouldn’t make a very solid connection. I think some more sweeping head crests/horns and carapaces like different beetles would look cool as alternative parts as well. Or alternative limbs like crab claws.

I can’t wait to have a Bug V Spider fight! The battle of the exoskeletons!

Come On … YA WANNA LIVE FOREVER?

Bugs, bugs, bugs…you can never have enough bugs to blast, incinerate, or nuke from orbit…the only way to be sure…
Love the design so I wrote and sent in my entry for the naming contest.

Left my ideas. Glad to see some aliens being added to Death Fields.
I would like to make the suggestion of a conversion sprue to convert the Lizard Warriors to full sci-fi. At least arms with blaster type weapons, although full bodies and/or heads would be even better.

Interesting, bugs with only four limbs . Not sure the anatomy really works for viscous killing machines though.

Paul Mitting - July 29, 2022

I just submitted my naming proposal. Pretty long winded but it was fun to write.
Can’t wait to get my hands on these little beasties!

Do we know the breakdown of bugs/types of bugs in a box?

Michael - July 27, 2022

YES! It’s a bug hunt. Don’t care what you call them (fluffy soft claws?-maybe not) I’m already
thinking about how to paint them.

I really like the look of these creatures can’t wait to get some and paint them up. And use them to play
In many scenarios.
