Here's my entry!

And the ruins around them? Leftovers from the party.

The smaller guys in front are obviously groupies with their party bus on the right (the APC) and the tracked sound system behind them - complete with a radar-dish like strobe-light system. For all of your dancing and mech-party needs.

**RiTides**

What is the small tracked vehicle at the feet of the right Prime Walker?

**Malika2**

Any update on that terrain teaser?

**PuppetsWar**

First things first...

Winner of our competition is Dave Clarke, he missed just one thing on the photo, single telegraph pole. Congratulations.

Second... Square shaped missile launcher will be produced. I don't know when it will be available but it will definitely be made and it will be "done in the free time". It may be really soon, it may be few monts from now...

Third - this little vehicle on the group photo is Turret Platform mounting a Radar Station/

Fourth thing - making legs separate will be difficult - our armors are made as one piece with torsos... But I will pass this idea of course.

**MLaw**

aw man, forgot the deadline, congrats to the winner!

Glad to hear the box launcher is a go! Is it going to be sized for turrets or Prime Walker or somewhere in the middle?

**David Clarke**

Thankyou, winning stuff is always good. My fledgling Heresy Iron Warriors force is about to get turbo-charged with bits and artillery support.

**SickSix**

Hey what ever happened to those heavy weapon mounts for the Rippers?

**DaHedd**

Loving the Ranger Heads.

**PuppetsWar**

Brace yourselves, winter is coming!

**SickSix**

Wow. Nice job. Not my cup of tea but I know a lot of folks who will love those guys.

And again, where are the heavy weapon mounts for termos armor???

**PuppetsWar**

Regarding heavy weapon mounts for termos armour - finished and waiting for release. This year most probably. It means just one month in worst case

Two things today...

Preview of upcoming Roman Empire styled heads.
Yes, we have plans for Roman Empire styled armours, and yes again - crests will be also available separately.

and second thing:

**warboss**

Is the Black Friday sale only tomorrow or the whole weekend?

**morganfreeman**

Well feth, looks like I'm going to have to buy some of your guy's stuff.

And those roman heads+crests look great. And really looking forward to your version of roman armor. Keep up the great work.

**PuppetsWar**

Black Friday will last till noon of our time, it means - about 19 more hours.

**PuppetsWar**

First official Puppetswar Black Friday is over.
We have to say that the number of orders during the promotion seriously overwhelmed us. This huge interest gives us great motivation to release new projects and to keep giving you best quality products we can.
Thanks for that!
We will do our best to send all ordered models according to the schedule.

Preview of upcoming attachment for Prime Battle Walker - Prime Wing pack.
Share with us your ideas of further attachments, please. We may even produce some of them

**Lythrandire Biehrellian**

Those are too cool!

I imagine the design process was something like this:

Sculptor A: Guys, guys, listen up. We need to top this giant robot somehow, make it even cooler... Any ideas?
*long silence as everyone thinks the same thing, until a lone voice speaks up*
'Give it a... jetpack?'
'YES! Brilliant!'

It definitely looks awesome!

**MLaw**

That jetpack is very very cool.
I suggest an alternate leg attachment with non-reverse joint legs more like a human leg. This will raise the overall height of the walker but will also allow a different silhouette so 2 walkers can look even more distinct next to each other.

Another suggestion, shoulder pads with mounts for weapon systems. Look at the designs for Mechwarrior Online by Piranha games for some ideas on what I mean... or maybe just attachments that fit onto the existing chassis to add missile ports and similar.

**deadairis**

Look great. I'd throw a vote out for arms with no hands on them -- gun or weapon "arms." Would also sure love to see themed versions coming along, e.g., droids with iconography sculpted on.

Would also really love to see rippers/paladins/etc. with firearms and/or shoulder or back mounted weapons.

**PuppetsWar**

Sometimes I'm suprised by little gems from our past. Take a look at these zombie heads. Rather nice, if one may say this about balls of rotten brain and putrid skin...

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=015

Set contains eight heads.

**PuppetsWar**

New product. Or - to better say - new service.

Express assembly

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=543

Express assembly service added to your order speeds up the process of preparing package for you. Our assembly section instead of standard 12 working days will prepare your order in 2 working days before shipping. Note that delivery time still depend on post office.
We would like to hear from You about any further kind of services you would like us to introduce. Tell us your ideas, please.

**RiTides**

Hmm, I'm not sure about that, since then a new order is jumping old ones! I think I'd rather just see if the prep time for all orders could be reduced by a day or two (just my preference

)

**OrlandotheTechnicoloured**

I'd be concerned about my 'standard' order taking longer just because somebody else paid for an expedited service

(even if it wasn't the case)

I think it's a bad idea especially when you factor in orders that take longer than normal either because you cant get them cast when you expected to(staff illness/holiday/run out of resin/need new moulds etc), a significant (minority) number of customers in this situation will probably end up angry and upset and just not belive you didn't deliberately slow down their order so somebody else could jump the queue

**the_Armyman**

Being completely unfamiliar with resin casting or its pitfalls, why does it take 12 working days to fill an order? That sounds excessive. And a service that allows someone to jump the line seems like a really good way to piss off customers.
