The year is ending. We know what the forthcoming releases are for next month already. Let's have a bit of fun here. As the thread title states: Suggest your idea for a mini, either a new mini or a resculpt, here. Someone from CB is certain to read it. Specificity is nice. Asking for minis based on comic books characters is not. We've seen enough of that. Yes. We really have. Here's something I posted elsewhere: Azra is the odalisque named in HSN2. QK could use its own Spec Op mini, and using the Azra name would be a nice shout-out to a bit of Infinity history. Speaking of Infinity history, some of us remember the Securitate mini in the old Nomad starter box, and how so very ugly it was, thus ugly Svetlana. The new mini doesn't really need to be ugly, at least not in the way the old one was. A Male Odalisque is 'one of those things' like the Wulver Girl or Fat Yuan Yuan. If you don't have an idea of your own, then you can express support for an idea you like.
I'm looking forward to the IA sectorial, so basically anything that fits in that. Upscaled Shang Ji and more Zuyong sculpts are probably the highest priority.
I hope they release Blue Wolves soon, already itching about them for years. +1000 points if they got into IA, giving them a nice Section 8 vibe.
As a JSA player only - here is a list of miniatures I'd like to buy: - Keisotsu Butai and kempeitai (resculpts are coming <3 ) - Updated Haramaki & Neko. Mostly Haramaki's (they are looking like hobbits, standing next to Domaru) - Aragoto & Asuka dismounted profile models (+ Aragoto BSG model ) - Raiden MSR - Shikami (Assault Pistols) - Oniwaban with new pose. Yes, I know, we got Outrage Oniwaban, but still. (Old model is cool though) Cheers!
Now with the Druze Sectorial out, I´m really hoping for a general, all faction including REM resculpt wave. I mean, the old ones are okey...at best, but getting some of them (meaning: all) up to date wouldn´t hurt. Besides that, a new Scarface/Cordelia just for the giggles and a Druze resculpt (yes, again) because someone at CB thought it would be totally fine to go from "antenna´s comfortably attached to the helmet" to "small, prone to breaking of, extremely annoying, loose antenna´s" ... hate that with pan-o, hate it now with the Druze.
Sakiel Box! CB gave them new profiles with HS:N3, but most of us Tohaa players don't want to deploy an army of converted Spitfire Sakiel clones; the Sakiel has AVA6 and currently we can only get two models (one in the Starter, the other one in Blister). Regarding the composition of the Box... - Light Rocket Launcher Sakiel. - Paramedic Sakiel. - Nullifier Sakiel. - And plain Combi Sakiel.
I know you said no comic style but an ariadnan female volunteer riding a traktor mul with a big gun would be a nice tank girl refernce
As Vedic will be getting resculpts this year and I feel my Nomads are in pretty good place, I'll say anything that pushes Morat forward. Rasyat, Zerat, Kurgat, even Raicho resculpt. For original ideas: Hunter type regiment with expert marksman skills. Something like veteran Zerat with cool cloaks, carrying various trophies.
bakunin has many boring minis. reverend custodier, zoe-piwell, kusanagi,prowlers and monkey man that can be made better. posthuman mk 2 hacker super urgent. aleph needs dakinis very urgently,devas acoordingly. ekdomoi and asura hacker needed too. jsa needs keisotsus urgently,aragatos,kempeitai and those karakuris. imperial hungry for kuangshis and celestial guards swwc box. corregidor needs wildcats. pano needs trauma doc, guarda de assaulto, hexas hacker tohaa needs an other clipso, sakiels, taqeul but more important than these some more troops and a sectorial. sukeul hmg too. ariadna needs kazakh line infantries and enough french please. shasvasti crying meanwhile.
Where's that Don Quixote recreation on a motorbike we are promised? With Sancho Panza Auxbot? By promised, I mean "that I really really want".
Dismounted versions of every biker. Conversion packs with some unarmed versions of the ava total and/or very popular models and a bunch of weapons and equipment (one for each sectorial) A bootleg/alternative blackjack with the helmet off using the sword 2 handed. All of TAK and MRRF...
Miniatures for troopers without any... For example: Taqeul !? Wardriver Those new Brawlers in druze sectorial and of course Bits&Kiss
resculpted REMs for everyone. ok some are cool and all, but most have still the old weapons! BTW, not all rems should be fancy. I can imagine Pano rems have a bit of design, most rem should be mass produced tin can with weapons. I can imagine they cut every possible corner to save on material and time. Effective design, sloped armour and no useless frills (looking at you, Aeroplane-fin-on-Lunakhod/tsiklon!) but, more than that, i'd like to see more REMs for all those armies that are High-tech, so to enchance the fact that those armies are "High tech". apart from these "generic" requests, i'd like a New nomad combat rem. Something like this: Snappies: Autonomous Maintenance Drones The nomads motherships are giant old, rusty slabs of metal and electric cables. The only thing that keeps them in 1 piece is the constant maintenance jobs. While most Big jobs are still completed by human hand, there are some places where humans can hardly arrive. Leaks and corrosion in the walls can quickly become something much more dangerous for the integrity of the ships. That's when Praxis came to help. They designed the AuMaD. AuMaDs are small autonomous REMs that patrol endlessly the ship in search of something to repair. Their small size allow them to navigate all Air ducts, Walls and sewer of the ship. When they find a leak in a tubing, they seal it, when they find a corroded plate they solder it. If they find something that they cannot repair, they simply request Human maintenance teams. Commonly called Snappies due to their crab-like apparences, they are easily and mass produced and simply released on board to perform their duties. They are the platelets of the Nomad Motherships' body. Due to their availability and cheap price, they have been modified for use as domestic helpers, for robot arena combats and simply as toys for the kids. Sometimes, those makeshift combat robot find their way on reconnaissance or incursion team thanks to their small size and offroad capabilities. Stats: Snappies: Autonomous Maintenance Drones Ex-Impetuous (so they are basically autonomous) Irregular MOV: 4-4 CC: 3 BS: 8 PH: 8 WIP: 10 ARM: 3 BTS: 0 STR: 1 Size: S1 Equipment: - Skills:Booty L2 (to simulate the tinkering) Weapons: Chain Colt Cost: ??? maybe 3-5 points?
An elite version of a unidron would be cool, with some unique skills to be an interresting choice for vanilla and maybe a haris in onyx, but that would probably overtake the niche of xeodrones, so maybe an elite solo light HI with unusual combinations of weapons and/or skills, maybe even some profiles with diffirent defining abilities. overall a greater variety of 'EI' stuff would be great for CA.
Moderator Spec-Ops but without any comic con cosplay attitude. Rather with SO, BSG+E/Mitter, Forward Deployment L1, CH: Mimetism
