I previously showed the preview for the M51 tesla tank. We are also coming out with several sets of accessories that will allow you to convert most kits into Weird War II. The parts are somewhat generic, so I imagine they would work on WW1 or victorian era models as well.

We wil have a set of Tesla/Weapon barrels, Large and small power supplies, and cast metal cable and coupling wires (soy can bend them around)


Our Churchill kit converted:


And our forthcoming SU76i


Any suggestions are always welcome!

We do have this model already available:


Easy enough to add some sort of weapon to the back if warranted.

It's October, and I've marked our cast metal Japanese zombies on sale! These are great sculpts by Brother Vinnie Studios on some original designs we did. We also have a nice set of zombie heads. Sale ends Nov 1.

I actually have CAD started for a GiJoe inspired Combat tank. Never finished it though as Moderns have not been a big seller for us thus far. But that can always change. I imagine all the Tesla weapons, etc would work on those just as well.

Though we do have an M41 Bulldog kit. An alternate turret would Joe that right up.

Yes. Yes you should!




As stated in the GI JOE thread, Company B please start making some other Joe/Cobra designs! A HISS tank, AWE Striker, heck even the APC would be awesome!

If I can get a MOBAT, Wolverine or the old joe apc, count me in

An is there some sort of ruleset that would work for a Joe vs. Cobra game? Seems like this would perfect for a modified Kill Team-like game.

It never ends well

for a hiss tank this is cheaper https://www.amazon.com/G-I-Joe-Cobra-H-I-S-S-Light/dp/0762454520 and about the same size as the shapeway one

there is also one here if you have access to a 3d printer. print at 36% to get a 1:56 scale hiss tank

Now you've got me wondering what a 28mm GI Joe (Sorry Action Force for me on this side of the pond) HQ looks like.

If you can get a list of what decals would be wanted for a small "old school" decal sheet for Gi Joe, I can put one together and offer it for sale as a custom set to those on Dakka Dakka. If I can get 10 or 12 sets sold, that usually pays for the setup fees, printing, etc.

So old school Gi joe logo in a couple of sizes..a killer whale. What else?

We already do have Cobra Hiss decals available by special request.

for GI joe several American Flags, the GI Joe logo, spelled out with a stream of red white and blue trailing off to the right. small rectangular warning signs in white "united States" in white black circle with white star inside.

for cobra, the red cobra symbol with wings as seen on the rattler

Vehicles that I would like decals for are the Lamborghini based vehicles, like the Vamp Vamp II and stinger. the Hiss is covered already. Mobat, APC, water Moccasin, Fang, Wolverine, whirlwind, I'd like to get most of the Jabberwock files printed out eventually see the post above for a list of what he has avaliable

Weird War

Painted pics of some of the weird war weapons and power units on our models and a M26 Pershing from JTFM. The barrels can have magnets added to swap out with regular weapons.

GI Joe:

Ok, so we have new CAD for the StingRay tank turret, mounted on our M41 kit. Pretty simple model to release. Literally could be out by Nov.

The Weird War weapons and add-ons are getting printed right now. I should have the final prints this month, and then casting should be about two weeks after after that.

More GI Joe themed items:

I'm going to essentially build my own Gi Joe force, and if there is interest some of these will trickle down into the regular Company B catalog.

First, the old school decals


And a tank to put them on:

You're making good models I would hate to see you get slapped for trademark/copyright violations.

I sent you a PM about these back on 10/26 but never heard back. Are these going to be available to buy through your store?
