Shocking! Cheesecake male servitors to go with the cheesecake female ones. Now, if we could just get some fully armored combat servitors, I would probably make my first purchase from them.

You get that's not how cheesecake works yeah? Big strong bulging manly musclemen are usually a male power fantasy rather than an expression of female desire. Big bewbs and backbreaking poses, otoh, are fairly squarely aimed at making blokes think of sexytime. Nothing wrong with that, per se, but it is what it is.

Statistically speaking women tend to prefer the fit/athletic look with visible musculature but not to the extent that literally every muscle on the torso is bulging out like they all have their own gym coach. Obviously that's not universal, but every time they do those statistics-driven composite renders the results are the same; fit-but-willowy - where do you think the whole angsty vampire fad came from. Men consistently overestimate how attractive the heavily-muscled look is to women because they're judging how much muscle definition is "good" based on their own experience in which muscly = big & strong = masculine.

Which was the point; you can't use "big musclebound heromen" as a counterpoint to "skimpy boob-support-machine", because those are both(in a statistically average sense, again, obviously individual people can have tastes that disagree) male fantasies, one of power and self-image, the other of sexual desire. When we start seeing hairless, toned, brooding, pouty, Edward Cullen-lookin' gits in model form, that my friend will be equality in action

You're all missing the point. That's not how cheesecake works because Male cheesecake is called Beefcake. Entirely different food groups, yet remarkably similar flavor. :p

Anyway, it looks like they're working on some kinda Kerrigan genestealer cultist


As well as some kinda Daemonette-inquisitor.


And that bike is excellent. Greater Good bike, please! And Greater Good cheesecake gue'vesa, too!

While I enjoy the aesthetic of their models, that car would be impossible to drive, lol. The windshield is not only obstructed, but it faces an upward angle. That takes 40K's "Look, it's sci-fi, just deal with it" approach to physics and vehicle design and turns the dial to 13.

Can always just assume that the windscreen is just for show, and they actually drive by instruments and/or a screen inside.

How do the cars compare to Rhinos for size?

Based on the photos I would say that they are on par size with chimiras and rhinos but there are shorter than both of them. The limos look like the only real troop transports.

I have to admit the the flamer car would make a great alternative to a chimera with a heavy flamer.

My bad. I forgot that they do not have upgrades any more. Ok back in the day you could mount either a heavy bolter or a heavy flamer on the front haul.

I did not know about the hellhound.

To my eye, these don't look as wide as a rhino chassis. Probably not a problem for friendly play though. Hmm, could maybe be bulked up with spare fuel barrels on the sides, but that might spoil the look...

The Chimera can still swap out both the hull mount and the turret mount for a heavy flamer / heavy bolter, but it boggles me that the Hellhound is unknown to you, as this kit more or less came out around the same time as the Chimera back in the day.

I wonder how long it will be before we see them start doing some new Space Elves? Some crazy looking Farseers and Autarchs would be pretty sweet.
