    Must of just changed the Wu Ming. When I went there a few min ago it was showing the old Wu Ming.

    I really like the Wu Ming and Zhanying. But I have the old one and would rather save my money for the new troops right now. I hope the next set has 1 Vanguard and 2 Jinwei. But I wouldn't mind if it's the other way around.

    I like the TAK pack, if meros still existed it could make proxies for certain types of troops. It's nice that some figs match the illustration, which worked well, it's a shame Casanova didn't get his pinup illustration during the sculpting phase, it would have been a superb fig.

    Krakot is very nice, but I've got at least two of them, his triangle on his forehead could be painted in bone in addition to his horns. Not a fan of the monkey-head kneepads, but they can always be filled with liquid putty.

    Not a big fan of the Drummer pack, except to make a parody project like the meme that was released.

    Same for the ISS pack, not a big fan of the new wuming, I find them too detailed and not very readable, and the 3rd one which stretches out the arm look like artwork of nomad heckler.

    I don't really understand the point of the JSA pack, which includes the JSA hero Takeshi when he already has his own box.
    It's a pity Takeshi doesn't come with a helmet option, because that would have a bit avoided duplication.

    Good month! I can save my money. I am dare to say that I do not like any of the new packs.

    Ariadna: Ja - the railworkers look okay but what is that in the upper left back? A walking recycle cardboard pile?

    MAF: Why this Samsonite big bag on his back? He always carrys around his belongings? Then the diorama like pose - good vor the cabinet but not on the gaming table.

    Pan O: CB wants to kidding us? Only one drummer and two different weapon platforms, that you never can use at the same time whitout another conroller (I know Posthumans box can also never be at the same time on tabel (at least not at one side) but this is a differnt thing). Do they now stick with with the holy three in the box? Why not make two controllers? Why? I want to play two but now I have to buy two packs and waste two auxbots?

    YJ: I have two generations of Wu Ming painted. Don´t need more. The last ones were fine. This one looks like mad max in power armour. Why the fragmenten faces and why no helmets. Yes they look like cyberpunk thugs, but not like a penal regiment that is get rid of their identity. The Zhanyi is probably the best looking miniatur from the whole release imo.

    I’m a bit disappointed in no changes to Reinforcements. I think no one is going to be playing this.

    For me, the main issue is how the points are distributed in the groups. This is how I would like it.

    In a 350-point or 400-point game, 50 to 150 pts. may be Reinforcements. The total number of points and SWC cannot exceed the agreed upon points for the game.

    I just don't like the hard stop at 100pts of REF. To me it would be more fun with flexibility. Lets face it. 100pts doesn't get you much with how they did the REF troops.

    I can't tell what's going on with his face. Has he got a bull ring in his nose? What are the three shapes just beneath his visor? Can't tell if that's brow and upper nose or chin, but it doesn't go anywhere.

    He's wearing some form of a breathing mask (reminds me these masks, indeed the tip was sometimes metallic), making the round bit on the tip of it metallic certainly wasn't the best choice, true.

    He's also wearing a visored helmet patterned after the Russian Altyn-series helmets. You probably could see more of his face from a different angle. The brown shapes are a mask covering his nose and mouth, and some protection on his cheeks - just a thin strip of exposed flesh is visible between the visor's lower edge and the brown breathing mask.

    3 miniature boxes at 4 miniature box prices. It's a win.

    The others are fine. Repacks don't make miniatures worse (the price got worse for sure)

    I don't like only two miniatures.
    - Krakot. And here is a question about that body with him. Lots of metal for nothing. I thought, they have a problem with a prices on it. And no option to remove it, I guess...
    - one of those new wu ming. And his modeling pose on the stone. Even JoJo pose would be better.

    The others are fine, some of them are usual.

    (Gladly their legs are not like one of new post humans have. That was a fail)

    We are in plus. Plus for some good miniatures, plus for prices (oh, sounds like a minus)

    I don't think they expect anyone to actually use the AVA2 or 4 rule that they made.

    There's still the question of the point of having created a box of 2 remotes with a single controller, when it's played in pairs of 1 controller/1 remote, so you pay extra for an option, which could have been limited to a set of weapons and without the main body. The box could have been priced at 25-30 euros.

    It would only make sense if they come out with a second set of another guy and two more drumbots.

    I believe that would be the plan. I assume the second box would have the FO and Mk12 profile.

    Question: Has there been a new release of S4 bots? I think it has only been S3.

    But knowing them, the chances of them coming out with a second set is slim.

    Yes. But in a nice way! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

    I'm wondering if they are going to be doing old TAGs in new plastic. The description for the Blue Wolf on the Warsenal site is that it's thermoplsatic. It was metal before wasn't it? One of the last ones.
