I know the top one is meant for Urban Mammoth's Metropolis, but I can't help imagining it leading a horde of Meiji-era Japanese marines into battle on the Kurils against those colonizing Russians with their steam-powered land-dreadnaughts. Because really, Steampunk Japanese a la Victorian Sci-fi has not been explored nearly enough.

The bottom one would make good conversion fodder for Tau. Does anyone still play Tau?

[EDIT] STEAM, dash it all!

I agree with Yair about the top guy(although I'd think the Russkies would go for human wave attacks supplemented by Teslamancers and Mechanocossacks riding on Steam dragons, but who listens to me?), but why did they turn VASA into RIFTS: Russia?

I'm one of the two people who still play Tau. Yay Tau! Unfortunately Tau don't have giant swords and this guy has no jetpack. Greater Good says it's not useful, sorry. Looks like a Vespid with power armor.

Those are cool. I doubt I can afford to get any, but they're cool.

Fat Kendo dude with serrated steak tanto.

Dumb.

Where the hell are my glitterboys?
