AT-43 minis pictures.

[BuShips]

I like the top heavy look.... picturing them moving serenely above the waist while their little legs flail away like buggery.

I can see Goliath Tipping being a common practice though

Reading this just gave me the image of the part in the movie of Robocop where the ED-209 has fallen down the stairs and is flailing its legs helplessly. :lol:

 

[Col_stone]

the small legs make them too cartoony imho, kinda like something from a daffy duck space adventure..

 

[Rob_A]

Very privateer press imo.
But the sharp footed one would sink on soft ground.

 

[Mr Evil]

think thats what i like about it

i love PP and thier products, and its what i play the most by far, and this reminds me a little of them, and i love scifi, so thats why it grabs me.

im just hopeing the full rules grab me as much. so far the game hasnt but the minis have.

What would the thinking behind four bug legs be do you think?
Can't 'ripple' move like a bug, you need at least six. Doesn't make for a very stable firing platform on the move as they are attached at the waist. Can't even run like a quadraped as you need legs at the corners for that.

'COmmander, the new designs for the goliath are here, frankly, they won't work, the legs are all wrong'.

'But how cool do they look! Order 50'

They are incredibly silly, and I love them.
They'd move like swans, serene above the waist and wee legs flapping madly underneath.


'We've come across another problem with the Goliaths sir, if they fall over they can't get up, we gave them tiny legs and welded guns on where their hands should be'.

'but they look really cool'

 

[BuShips]

If I ever get that figure, I might mod it by adding little snowshoes. That way it won't sink and can shuffle along to battle with the best of 'em, lol.

Overdeveloped uper torso, spindly little legs........... I think the therians are really into internet porn.
My mate Simon is built exactly the same.

 

[Turtle]

To be honest, the Therians can modify themselves almost instantly to situations using their nanotechnology mastery. Some scenarios have them morphing weapons on the fly, or changing worker drones into warriors.

So when it comes time to invade a soft soiled planet, they'll have bigger feet.

Are you suggesting your mate Simon spends a lot of time alone?

 

[JoseDominguez]

God, I hope so. Hate to think anyone was in there with him.

Comparison Pictures...

 

[shakespear]

I like that they did this.

I have, and still would pay for that quality.

 

[Hiromoon]

Actually, I'm ok with paying less for those figures, even with the quality of the paint jobs.. 6 figures for $25?

 

[shakespear]

Well, from experience I can tell you it would cost you $25 (plus shipping) to have those figures painted at that level.

 

[Hiromoon]

Or I could just do the work myself...cost me...oh....what? $3.00 in paint?

 

[shakespear]

Very true, but that defeats the purpose of pre-paints.

Are they even doing unpainted? The whole game may be done for guys like me... =(

 

[Hiromoon]

Nope....same with BF:Ev and SST:Ev. Sure, MGP will make the old figures available..but I'd rather have the new ones...

 

[Stratos]

I'm more than satisfied with that type of production quality. Worst case scenario... I'm spruce them up with all the paint I currently have!

 

[BuShips]

For playing quality, those look just fine. The production figures have more of a weathered look than the studio ones appear to have. Very nice, I'd say. I'd use them. :wink:

 

[Mage]

It is still expensvie. I'd hate to see the pirce of the fire toad or the wraith golgoth by themselves. I think I'd kjust buy a few starters instead. I mean 6 of each comes to 50, and the set is 80, I think..... I doubt the scenery and each combat strider, or the extra 5 models would ever be thrity or less....
