I think they'll keep moving "forward" timeline wise (and of course Tohaa are dead...), otherwise a Tohaa vs Aleph Operation: Digester Room would be neat.
It's like $2 more than a "normal" figure, but it's just to show that they CAN do it, so more about whether they think it's worth doing or not.
The context that you've seemingly missed out on is that they deem it "okay" for the SpecOps figures(not sure why we needed a second Kazak themed one, but whatever) but it's not okay for anything else. SpecOps figures have had alternate parts since they first released the range. That's not new. It's not some kind of big deal at this juncture. What would be a big deal is if we got more unit profiles with them, as that's where it is exceedingly rare.
Then we should be asking for more spec ops really. Though I wouldn't mind if there were more options in like, one of the 4 figure sets. The Antipode pack had 2 antipodes with the same body, so they could do something like that easily enough. 4 Securitates with 6 weapon loadouts or whatever. I am not personally invested in the Securitate Debate, so don't care. :)
We have a full SpecOps range at this juncture. Dire Foes are even 'named' SpecOps. We'll probably see resculpts of the initial bunch at some point. But again, this doesn't solve the frigging issue that they have continually withheld items from boxed sets in order to "keep costs down" while grousing about SKU bloat that they create with nonsense like this.
Why would anyone build a Spec-Op with specific weapon? At least it has some spare parts for conversions, i guess. The whole 4 arms thing looks like a joke after what they did with most HI boxes (3 man with tinbot instead of 4). The guy above mentioned grenzers and securitate, how about Riot Grrl with spitfire? The only one not resculpted since they decided to shove in a useless tinbot model instead. The whole "too many skus" sounds like BS excuse at this point.
No clue, but I already suggested some shared parts and excess options for the boxes. The bots thing might just have to do with how much metal can fit in a mold or something, I assume they have reasoning for the stuff they do. I'm sure the sku thing is true, but it might easily be their own fault for the bloat while still being true. A box of adjustable figures would be one sku that folks might buy multiples of to get their desired variants for instance. I think they just fear not having constant releases to maintain the pace/ attention.
we have full of spec ops? no. Some factions have more than one, and others have only the one (nomad's is the ugliest of them all, and have only one). Securitate feverbach for C1 so people don't have the need of buying extra boxes, but the C1 releases will come in boxes, so if you want more than one, you need to buy extra boxes?. There is something I quite don't understand here. At the moment, just seems to me just another excuse from CB for just giving TJC an underworked release. the nomad vs aleph thing, could be nice. But some people were expecting TJC vs OSS when coldfront(the ghost conflict revenge), and ariadna needed their part too, so it was ok. I highly doubt that box soon (or just that box to ever be released)
The Securitate Feuerbach was an example given of an N3/N4 release that will still be coming alongside the Code One releases, not a Code One release.
Ok. Then a blister, when they are explicity reducing the blisters of one miniature, mixing even n1 with n3 in the same blister in an attempt to reduce the number of references. It is still strange to me. Quite contradictory
So Knight of Justice is a new fancy name for Father Knight (hilarious dogmatic consequences if they have same fluff). What is supposed to be a difference between Nooken and Locust ? Change of HI to have 6-2 MOV is .... interesting. For sure it's a LoL for Shasvastii xD
I willing to bet money that the TAG box for Kaldstrom will include the new Cutter sculpt since it's available for PanO in Code One. Also I'm glad that I've got a HMG Aquila Guard and Beyond Icestorm box on the way through the post seeing as both the Swiss and Aquila are both available in Code One.
There's a fairly huge difference between the FK and the KOJ, in the shape of me not being able to read.
Wait, wut !? You mean MA2 ? Well yes, he has (?) stealth now (pr not) and is much more punchier in CC. His problem wasn't that though.
Apparently so did CB...since they're not listed on the Code One list. :P About par for the course really!
Did he just describe Martial Arts as +3 to your CC, -3 to opponent CC and +1 to your DAM? That's a pretty hefty change if so
