Thought I wouldn't have to buy the new Shinobu because I have the Defiance one. Then they released the two handed sword wielding one in an awesome hat. Looks like I'm getting two Shinobu...
Yeah, same with me "I have a Marut, I don't need a Marut, oh shit look at that Marut, I need a Marut".
I thought people were saying there was a general release S2 siocast model, but having watched the video I see now that that is not the case.
Correct. Sounds like Warcrow will be Siocast, they also debuted a new "Hard plastic" resin at Adepticon, will be interesting to see if CB take that up as well.
I'll wait for official confirmation (probably closer to the dungeon crawl kickstarter) as to materials - the TAG Raid one is using PVC for large models / terrain and metal for most of the rest of the small models. That being said, I know CB have stated in the past that part of the reason they were looking into Siocast was to be able to make side game models in house instead of outsourcing overseas.
Love the Uxia. Cannot get over lack of wrists on he Vanguards. What the hell, sculptor. What the hell. Absolutely dumbfounded by "pogo stick TAG" with ARM1 level protection of all pilot extremities. How is this supposed to work? Why every single other Morat seems to be overarmoured, but the TAG pilot is almost unprotected? Look, alt sculpt! :D
The Buktrak's pilot is amply protected by his enormous brass balls. Or a nanoscreen over the pilot, but I prefer the first theory.
Aye Caramba! Tian Guo - its about time and she looks great! I like the outer space look. The Curator is cute and can play double as an HVT. The Nokken Spitfire looks very cool. Karhu - concept - finaly, but still no render :-( Its more then one year already, isn´t it? Shinobu - awesome - I am a fan of the "rice farmer" hats :-) Marut - I am a little sad it seems to be a male .... like the old bunny ears and big bun ... but never bought one and don´t want to assemble one so I wait ;-) Wolfgang - unusual pose, I wonder what he is crushing under his boot (it has a robotic hand). One word on the Baltruk MAF Tag: I realy don´t like that the pilot / operator hangs in the open. I mean the TAG is armored because it has to protect its pilot! This makes no sense and it reminds me in a bad way of the 40K Grey Knight Walkers that look sooo silly (I don´t know, if they still exist). On the other hand the AC looks very threating and the arms are a new design approach too. Oh and Uxia - how boring So very cool stuff coming this (?) year!
It's androgynous enough to be anything you want He is riping off the head of a Betatrooper and most likely killing the pilot because of the feedback.
Holy crap… just… holy crap. Shinobu running with a nodachi! That Marut! A new Uxia looking badass! My Yu Jing dreamed of the Tian gao looking that good. There are some damn pretty miniatures here that will leave my wallet broken and weeping. Will also have to get the curator just to have all of PanO military orders (damn Pokémon syndrome but she is a lovely mini).
