@Steven StGeorges  Reference: That's an interesting take on it.  Maybe that's the way GW will go with the fluff. My interpretation of the Warhammer Community article was a bit more s...

@Steven StGeorges  Until '92 sounds about right.  When I got into 40K about 1994ish all the metal marines had flat joints.  But 2nd Edition (Also known as THE BEST EDITION) came ou...

@JTam   Loved that movie with a passion back to the days... Hope the tvshow is going to be as good as the original film. 

@SaucyNaut   Indeed my friend, Maelstorm's Edge minis are really underrated -especially Karists and Broken ones... 🙄

@JTam   Indeed.. quite a lovely and simple DIY video. Do you have, in your bookmarks, a video about banners made of aluminium can? 

@Steven StGeorges They do look pretty good

Maelstorm's Edge Epirian Foundation Units could be another alternative ... SecDef for example are quite a lovely mix of Oldhammer Imperial Guard, Starship Troopers and Halo marines. 

@BS Kitbasher   But a pity RT tyranids background did end in trashcan... Okay Zoats are back too -at least as part of Blackstone Fortress, same for Genestealer Cults... but in the meanwhile '...

In the last 48 hours of the Stalingrad Z Kickstarter.  I think it fully funded in hours.... For better or worse the miniatures are pretty big.  No worries, already planning how to make t...

Wait, we need one more ahistorical helmet:

@Geoff Maybury  I never got the Command Set.  I wasn't really familar with the contents.  That's awesome!

@Grumpy Gnome  Shame the minis are huge. Reference Bruce Willis.... Maybe he did know... that his health was failing, and it was time to sock away some cash, no matter the role.  

@Grumpy Gnome  I swear I must have watched it 20 times as a kid on cable.  

Wow! I loved the original. I dread what a mess they could make of it though.

That GI Joe Kickstarter is live.... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/renegadegamestudios/gi-joe-mission-critical/description Several of the sculpts are a bit too busy for my taste (especially...

Subscribed! Thanks for the heads up.

@Frank Reischmann Can`t yet decide what to do with my unmade originals, I sold all the painted,  along with my other collections. However I couldn`t bring myself to sell the unbuilt, in case t...

Great news this. Will give me a chance to get my head around the rules while I wait for the starter set.

Ten one hour episodes of re-imagined Time Bandits!!!!!! I'd be super pumped if I wasn't equally dreading how much they could fu*k this up.   (See LOTR prequel trailer, etc.) https...

@Andrew McColl  Excellent point on the drum. I occasionally see British troops with the drum: https://www.americanrifleman.org/content/the-tommy-s-thompson/ But if the drum was ever is...

Not going to lie, I love the idea of various shoulder pads on sprues. 

Drum magazines are usually associated with gangsters, but I recall stories of families sending their sons 'spare' drum mags during World War 2. For a model kit, the gangsters (or similar non-milita...

@Hudson Adams Could have a character model with maybe 3 different poses and multiple weapon, head, and extra bit options. Depends on how grandiose the model is as well. if it's a normal-sized and b...

@Hudson Adams Epiccc. Hopefully showing other companies they don't need to charge an arm and a leg to be successful. 

@Blutze  everything we make gets widespread (and growing) distribution with retailers worldwide. I suspect in the not too distant future you'll be able to find our products wherever miniatures...

@Steven StGeorges  The NinjaBread website is awesome.  Thanks for the heads up! And even educational.  I had no idea there were interim metal Space Marine bodies with rounded joi...

@John Wilson @Frank Reischmann @Andrew Stoeckle I found higher quality images that hopefully show what they look like better. I admit the CE marines may look a bit bland and boring so some details ...

@Frank Reischmann Yeah I agree. Not sure if I explained myself well but I want them to resemble Halo marines or something very close not w40k marines. Mainly the Halo CE marines as mentioned. ...

@John Wilson The light SciFi infantry looks pretty interesting. Look like they're heavily inspired by the Alien movies. 

@Blutze   You're right, the legion style shields look too big.   It would be awesome if one could squeeze another body on there.  (Alternately one could probably squeeze two b...

I really hope there are, one can never have too many late romans.

I really hope there are :)

@JTam you are not :)

So something like this guy on foot here: One onehanded sickle, two different twohanded swords; left hand holding a crossbow, holding a shield, or petting the dragon; two or three different heads ...

I think your scuta are a little too big compared to the celtic oval. The section with the kitty heads and a few other places have some leftover space too. Psure you could fit a sixth body on there,...

Mocked up a sprue for my own amusement. One Irish sized sprue would easily allow one to build: Thracian, Hoplomachus, Myramillo, Secutor, Retiarius, Laquearius, Dimachaerus, Scissor, Provocator, ...

GCPS with the marine helmet are pretty good mid tech marines, I've been combining some of the bodies with cannon fodder heads and arms for militia types.

There was Wargames Atlantic's teased US sci-fi light infantry..... https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2836687949983757&set=pb.100009277404708.-2207520000..&type=3 Its been a while th...

Feeling pretty good about the Vivandiere guess now. Sneak Peak for 29 APR 22: The Thompson is interesting.  Could be WW2 British, early war Americans, or a score of other troop types. ...

The background for both the Necrons and the Tyranids were at their peak before 5th edition.  

@Steven StGeorges  The first one.  The building of an entire banner from scratch was cool. The second was informative as well.  But I think I've mastered paper banners.

@William Redford yikes I just took a closer look at that frame. Man whoever is designing these for them doesn't understand making figures for injection molding! 

if one of them fails can i take his stuff

@OrlandotheTechnicoloured LOL

the more snazzy hats (or heads with different snazzy hats) you put on the sprue the more tempting it is

@John Wilson I'm thinking along the lines of one of our 1/2 sprues - or maybe one the size of the Prussians that has all bits for making 1-3 character figures. 

@Hudson Adams I'd prefer something like the Frostgrave magicians sprue, still a useful number of bodies, but a shed load of heads, arms and customation bits. However a small sprue with one body and...

I, too, have spent a lot of time attempting to want to buy Medge character sprues.  I keep failing.

If the character is very much like the run of the mill figures in the troop box i'd likely not be interested, with just minor changes in clothes/headgear or uniform but if the character is differe...
