think in what Defiance characters need to be launched yet... Lei Gong, Jaan Star, Kitsune, Sforza, Kendrat Probably the next operation will have two of those characters in a thematic dire foes. ISS with Sforza is a great bet
New Morat painted. From news of septembre from warsenal. https://warsen.al/collections/infinity-preorder
Nice box with tinbot! There are several other ways they could have the models holding their weapons .. that sure is one way to get a lot of wrist stress amongst the duplcate posing this way. I don't think my colour scheme will have anywhere near as many colours though!
Man! After I complete Haqq I was going to move onto Nomads, but Morats look great and their play style is very flexible. Tough calls lay ahead. >:]
Kitsune has a regular relaese with a very dynamic Pose and gigantic odachi. It came out in May if I am not mistaken.
As @Fed4ykin said, shinobu kitsune has had a release but I won’t object to another! Sforza vs one of the others would be a great dire foes set. Ooh. Pretty. No damn it! I’m not doing Morats! I’ve too many other things to get done…
For age reasons I was only aware of mangas and able to buy my first issue of Battle Angel Alita in 2000 So considering the crouching-style motorball bodies of Skaramasakus and of Peshkavus, and to a certain extend also Tigel's body, they fit quite well in a Remote Race setting. BAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!
I dig the bulkiness and the savege feel of them but IMO they went too far with space viking design, especially the helmets and beards.
I only started reading it in ‘98, saw the OVA on the sci-fi channel on sky first! Oh I definitely agree; there are a few in the manga that are very adaptable to a remote based racing game. CB, hope you’re watching! I wants me a remote racing game! With all the remotes!… Since I’m impatient I’ll just go and kitbash a game using gaslands as a base for now… Agreed, especially the new ones with cankle wrists. I mostly love the paint job on these though but dammit I’m not buying another force. I’m out of toy money at the minute, lol. Perhaps the Morat took a trip to svalarheima, liked the beards a bit much and decided to cosplay? Or they even went to neoterra considering the red helms and horns… Shame no one told them that neoterra horns sweep back from the helmet. Yes. The horns are a bit much especially as most horned helms us humans used tended to be ceremonial not battle ready. There’s something about having two things on top of your head that can be driven into your skull in the right situations in battle. Agreed, I will be poking at my friend to remove the horns from his when he gets them later in the year as a gift.
I am thinking I will do the same. I like the side horns because they are reflective of the previous design, but the top ones are a bit too distracting to me. I am also planning to do something about the axe in the hand of the HMG. They way it is holding it seems off.
Tbh, for those two, I'd also swap the arm sets between them. I think I'd like the poses and weapon handling better.
I miss their alien faces. In some moments masked fighters looked very similar if not painted... same for haqqislam in blackwind. I showed a picture to my friend, and she said, that those without faces are similar. How are we understand who is who? By color? (She isn’t playing. And that is good to ask person from the side. Who don’t know details)
Just out of curiosity, when do the Operation and Beyond boxes get combined/split into the single faction action packs? Is it when the next operation box comes out? I really like the Steel Phalanx stuff but not as keen on the Haqqislam side and don't need to add more models to my pile of stuff I probably wont touch.
When the stars align is usually when stuff happens… Not sure why it coincides with Cthulhu gribbles running rampant but I’ll claim that it’s a coincidence for now…
