For a smaller walker to pair with this, I'm going to be using it with the Gangfight Games medium mech from Mechadrome:


http://store.gangfightgames.com/mechadrome/free-agents/overkill-free-agent/

There's a lot of different arm options, although you might be able to use some Puppets War weapons with it. But the enclosed canopies are a great match!



Copying the links for the Puppets War Prime mech over to the new page (lots of specific weapon links are on the last page though, so well worth checking out):

You mean, like their Enforcer?


I have it and it's a great kit. Admittedly, the Mantic Strider might be closer to the look of that suit.



RiTides - I've always found the Mechadrome stuff to be prohibitively expensive. I like the idea though.

Quick question - is this big walker suitable as a Knight stand-in, or is it not big enough? I know it's not as bulky (particularly in the shoulders) but if it's anywhere near that's what I'd like to use it as . Maybe mounting it up on top of some terrain.

I'd planned for a while to use the Mechadrome mechs as Ironclads and pair them with a Knight for a null deployment list (with the Knight being the only thing on the ground and so held in reserve) but never had a suitable Knight model to match them... until now

Edit: Took the plunge and ordered one! However, after you add the weapon options (which a Knight obviously comes with for the most part) it ends up being 2.5x the cost . I got:

100x 3x1mm MAGNET
50X 5X2MM MAGNET
---
GATLING GUN-pair
DOUBLE AUTOMATIC CANNON-pair
FLAME CANNON-pair
NUCLEAR HEATER-pair
AT CANNONS-pair
---
EPIC GATLING CANNON
EPIC AT CANNON
EPIC FLAME CANNON
EPIC LASER CANNON
EPIC PRIME BLADE
---
1xPRIME WALKER V1

I didn't order the missle attachment for the back since I don't plan to equip that and have other bits I could swap in. I also couldn't decide whether the gatling or automatic cannon would look better as a stubber, so got both and will use the extras for something else.

But yeah, after the guns it hurts a lot more . I guess it wouldn't if you only wanted to configure it one way, but it seems like folks will want options.

To be fair you didn't need to order 15 weapons and all those magnets from them either

If you want a laugh check out a FW contemptor and then add 15 weapons to the cart and look at the balance

At 39 Euros that thing is criminally cheap even without guns. Heck I am tempted to buy a few to make a post mech battle set of terrain features.

Well it's really 5 weapons plus the little auxiliary ones. I probably could have used some existing ones, but if you just want a single set of weapons you're still looking at a lot more than 39 euros. Still think it's great and can't wait to get it obviously

Lol, yeah, the forge world's worth of weapons was optional.


@Puppets War: I was wondering if you guys cast the heads with the bodies for certain models. I was interested in picking up a squad of strikers but preferred a different head. Is it possible to substitute different heads if they're the same cost with the order? I was basically interested in making these guys.

warboss - I don't know if you save money ordering specific bundles but the striker body does not have heads cast as far as I know.
I believe you want

I might be mistaken but I think the closest thing to that is
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=235

Thanks for that but I've been combing the site and it seems like the best way is to get striker squads and then add what I need like heads and jetpacks. With the air cav squad, the heads and the arms aren't the ones I need. They do sell the headless bodies you listed which leads me to believe that they're not casted together but they've also got the wrong arms (I want the double grip kwidowmaker set). Hopefully I can sub in a different set of heads for the same price.

I have to admit that despite following this thread that I was astonished by just how much Puppets War has in terms of sheer variety on their site! They've got really been busy the past months.

I'd just go ahead and do it now - at least Puppetswar doesn't put out garbage rules, just awesome models.

Yes, You can order Strikers with other pads and heads, just contact us first to discuss this. But this is possible and was done quite a few times, even recently.

I'd like to show two things today.

First, is one of our earlier sets, Space Insect Heads. We still like them a lot, and I personally love two heads with pair of three eyes each. Guess why?

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=92



And then... we have something already painted. Łukasz Grzby, which is also known as C'tan, painted our Stone Golem for Hussar 2015 Polish painting competition.
Just one picture here...

Holy crap, that's beautiful!

RITides must be fumbling for his credit card right now, that's the only reason he hasn't posted about it yet.

excellent looking golem.

MeanGreenStompa linked me to it this morning . Absolutely beautiful! I (somewhat shockingly) already have the stone golems I need atm, but I really love it

That really is fantastic.
Hey, it looks like you guys might have updated your landing page (maybe?). I see a nice big list of new releases now.. I don't remember that before.

That golem is a great deal and is fantastic.
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=278

Holy crap that is one detailed diorama love the fishing line caught to the mouth just amazing.

Dem water effects...

Holy sauce soaked balls! I NEED that for my Circle army so bad!

I don't suppose you have a US distributor for the rock monkey?



Also, RiTides, just who are you planning on playing 40k with, and when?

That is glorious...

Holy crap. That is one of the most beautiful dioramas I have ever laid eyes on. The fishing line and fisherman running away is simply fantastic. That has had to have won some contests.

They do ship to the US. It's only like $40 right now so that's a pretty good deal for the size of the model.

Don't know if it's been mentioned or not, but there seems to be a load of stuff on sale at the moment:

Couldn't tell you how much by, but the lowered prices are even better than PW's normally very reasonable levels.

From my recent searches, it looks to be about 10%. The big stompy robot previewed earlier in this thread is quite reasonable. I did a bit of a double take when I saw it was more expensive for me to outfit my 10 elite troopers than it is to buy the huge robot! Although there is an argument to be made for the sheer amount of parts and individual molds for the various bits... but all that resin in the giant robot! I don't know if that is a lower than normal intro price on the big bot.

Well as I noted outfitting the giant robot is where they make up for that somewhat but still a sweet deal!

I really liked reading some of these comments. Yes, discount is roughly 10% for selected (but very numerous) models.
You can find all of them here:

http://puppetswar.com/category.php?id_category=154

And today we have something new too: Hooded Elite Heads.

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=528

Do You like it?

Those heads are kinda nice. I'm trying to remember if you have some hooded ones without bionics as that would be really useful for Frostgrave players or anyone wanting to add a hoodie to a model that doesn't have cybernetics. Either way, yes.. I've seen companies try hoodies and them not look right but you nailed it Again..

BTW Puppetswar, what's the lead time on the big robots? I ordered mine the day they released and was curious about delivery and stuff. No rush, I imagine you guys are swamped, just hoping to see it before Christmas

Before Christmas? Yep, it will be on time. And on a more serious note, we hard try to complete orders within 12 working days and then shippment adds its own time... Nothing changed here.

Today - something really old. Our set of Red Army Orc Heads.

Did You know that we actually offer some bases too?
You can find them here (round, 25mm)
http://puppetswar.com/category.php?id_category=83

I'll point out that in a parade, a full circus of great stuff, Puppets War's bases are really great. Up there with Secret Weapon's in terms of quality.

Spoiler:

I understand if you can't reply to this, but are there any city/ruins round bases in the making?

I will say I'm considering the big robot thing for my Dark Mechanicus to count as a riptide for my counts as tau army. Overall it's actually the same price as a discounted Riptide but I dont' have to buy all the other tau stuff since I can make it out of my current counts-as models

Some bases are finished and others are in the making now, but I think they will be releases in the new year...

Halloween is coming so we decided to release two new sets today, both very suitable, we think.
Something for death metal fans first - Demon Heads

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=530

And for more traditionally minded people - Skulls Set

http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=529

Which set do You prefer?

Did you guys already release the "barbarian" ripper armor or is that a sneaky sneaky preview?

You guys sure are prolific. I recently placed my first order and am sorry I missed the skulls. On the other hand, if I decided to wait until you stopped releasing stuff, I'd never buy anything.

You sure crank out those heads at a breakneck pace

It would be awesome if you would make some distinctive but not over the top heads with distinctive ethnic features. Like the Norse warriors and Cossacs, but asian/african/south american etc instead of Nordic/East european.

(I know there is North American heads, but they look wierd and not really like Native americans)

Sweet, I've been looking for different heads for my evil Guardsmen, and I was thinking: "What about skulls?"

Skull-flavored skulls! Yes! And digging those demon heads too! Yay for eevil heads

Re: New heads - idea will be passed to the sculptors, but as we are trying to finish some lines first, I think it will take time. Besides, we have a lot of still unreleased finished models...

Glue is one of the most important modelling materials. Fortunately, we offer three kinds of it. You can find them in our webstore available in single bottles or grouped in a set of three (thin, medium and thick cyanoactylate glue and 200ml cyanoacrylate activator spray, which is designed to speed the cure of cyanoacrylate adhesives).

any chance you will be doing some 32mm ones???

Valhalla Champions Heads

Valhalla Warriors Heads
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=531

"Sons of the gods today we shall die
Open Valhalla's door
Let the battle begin with swords in the wind
Hail Gods of War"

Why not make some matching body designs as well, to go with those awesome heads? Could be epic...very Flash Gordon like, but more "contemporary scifi" like!

I NEED so.e of those Valhalla heads for my space wolves!!!

Bodies... it means yet another range... We don't say no, of course, but too many ideas, too little time and resources are a problem

Something from our past - check our Orc Gruberwagen

I placed my order on October 23rd. Today being November 9th, I just got a shipping notification. That's 2 and a half weeks from the time my order was placed until shipping. By business days that is 12 business days exactly so what you said holds up. It's just a little disappointing that there was so much of a wait before the item even shipped. You might want to make a note about that on the website so people's expectations match your business practices (in a place that is obvious). People ordering something like this for Christmas need to get their orders in fast because sometimes shipping from Poland to US etc can take a month+.

MLaw - I know that waiting sucks, period. But large part of our models is being casted for specific orders, and it takes time - we are small (very small) company with very limited number of resources - employees, etc. And this waiting period is clearly indicated on our website. http://puppetswar.com/cms.php?id_cms=1
We REALLY try hard to send orders ASAP, sometimes it is just very, very hard - hence 12 working days limit.

And today I can show a construction site, of sorts. Start of a new building model.

Outside of the Batman head, those are some of the most common heads you see in comics so they're all very useful. I think the first one wins for me though. You can make so many heroes from that. Spider-Man, Deathstroke, Deadpool, Hawkeye, and on and on. Very happy to see these released

MLaw, I had the same turnaround time but it's no problem for me - I figured there might be a bit of a queue for the Prime walker, but didn't realize that was the normal turnaround time. Good to know for reference, but like I said no worries here

Man, all the various heads and stuff would make for a really awesome conversion set for a Necromunda gang.

Methinks I just gave myself a reason to spend money on things - curses!

MLaw - this head is also my personal fav But NL army whit batman heads sounds tempting too. Must pass this idea to my bro, who builds them...

And today something new.

Orc Blaze Cannons are here! Brand new and available in pairs and in a set of six! Get them while they are still HOT!

ORC BLAZE CANNON PAIR

Terror from the Sky! Set of Winged Doom Strikers, nightmares made real.
I think still one of the best assault troopers on the market (but I'm biased, I know).

http://puppetswar.eu/product.php?id_product=257

Nice models. My only quibble is that the wings just look a tad too small. If they were stylized wings with mechanical thrusters, they'd work, but when they look like they are supposed to be functional, they look a bit too small.

But very nice models overall. Like 'me a lot better than GW's offering.

Some problems may be resolved only by using bigger guns...

It looks chibi, but use it as mortar and it looses the chibi factor. IMHO.

Do you mean a version with a longer cannon, Vermis?

That track unit.. is that a new component? I think maybe if you put the walker cockpit on that and turn it around and maybe put some exhaust, it could be a neat wartrak or whatever they're calling them these days.

Mine came in today. The casting is mind-boggling. I didn't examine it in super fine detail but I did go over it and found minimal flash, sharp details, wonderful resin, and an almost fruity smell to the bag

Is the far left walker (the turret and Enforcer legs) available as a thing? That would be a neat addition to something I'm putting together.

 MLaw wrote:

Since I have all those things, I can comment on them. Simply put, the answer is a definite Yes. I'll list and link all the mecha and APC main bodies, minus weapons and the infantry.

The two on the left are Enforcer Battlewalkers. The left one just uses the Walker legs with a MK II Turret and weapons, while the right one is a full Battlewalker kit. The MKII Turret is separate or sold with various weapon attachments, so you can take one with weapons or simply choose the weapons separately and add them on your own. The Enforcer legs also work with the Cerberus Turret system as well.

Enforcer Legs
MK II Turret
MK II Turret Gatling
MK II Turret Missiles
Enforcer Battlewalker
Cerberus Turret

Then you have the two Prime Battlewalkers V3 and V1.
Prime Battlewalker V3
Prime Battlewalker V1

Just in front of the Prime Battlewalker V1 there is a Tracked Platform vehicle that is also compatible with the MKII Turret systems as well.
Tracked Turret Platform

And finally to the right of that is the Taurus-APC, Brick version, also available in Exterminator version which comes with a pair of machine guns and the MKII Turret.

I would think that Paulson Games missile launcher would be compatible fairly easily. If I recall both of them are approximately 35mm long. I think I have a few of his launchers, although not sure which of the boxes they are in.

Good call..I think I actually might have a few of those in a bin somewhere. I'll have to rummage a bit but that could work nicely. Come to think of it.. I think I bought a bunch of Paulson stuff when they were put on hiatus a while back.

Basically.. I'm trying to do a Mechwarrior type thing that I think I mentioned before. The Enforcer, plus a turret on Enforcer legs would serve well as light mechs (I know in MW standards they're still bigger than this.. don't care). The Prime Walker will be a Med or Heavy. I have stuff for a Vulture conversion and a few other things.. I plan on doing a custom scenario with my boys

My only problem are some weapons (I don't like the look of the Gatling and AT-cannon).

Are there more weapons planned or will the normal Gatling fit?

It seems that photo of our Battle Walkers suprised many of You with a size and number of our models. So we decided to run competition again. Rules are simple. Take a look at the photo and write in comments which products are visible there. One user, one comment only, please. We will choose winner from among persons with greatest number of correct names. Winner will be announced on Tuesday, she/he will receive 45 EUR voucher for purchasing models from our webstore.

This competition runs here too, we know about comment by Dark Severance - he may, of course, update it , but please do it in a new comment below my entry.

And just for your reference:

PW - Cool contest! I'll definitely give it a shot. Do we have to link to the products in the webstore or just list what they are?
I know I complained about the wait time but it was definitely worth it. Anyone thinking of the Prime Walker or the Enforcer, I have both and they're both fantastic kits!

Is there any chance of a box style missile launcher in the future big enough for the Prime Walker's shoulders? It could double as Manticore or something for mounting on trucks!

What I see in the picture:

Are you talking about the Epic Gatling for the Prime? That is the nice thing is they don't come with any weapons so you can choose which ones you want to add independently. The Epic Gatling (52mm long), underslung to the hand designed to fit in with the 5x2mm magnet holes. The regular gatling doesn't have the underslung part, but you can make it work and is 55mm long. It might look out of place, but could also work depending on how you do it. You can also look at Paulson Games mech weapons as the majority of them are compatible, give a different look, that mix really well with Puppet Wars designs perfectly. Add magnets and choose them all. ^_^

I PM'd my entry for now.. I'll post it on Facebook later, but I didn't want to spoil it too early. I think people would be surprised how many products are visible. ^_^ or maybe they won't be.

I have a Prime Walker and that Gatling... I'll look at it and let you know how doable a conversion for that barrel is. Without looking, my initial thought is that the diameter should be fine but I think the length might leave it looking stumpy.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Okay.. so I checked.. I don't have the epic gatling just the plain one and battlecannon... which.. my order was supposed to be one battle cannon and one flame thrower..or.. something else but I know I didn't order 2 battle cannons.. (I just realized this).
Anyway.. the diameter would fit for a conversion of the regular gatlin to the epic mount, but it would require some cutting and pinning. The length of the Gatling is the same as the length of the cannon barrel.

EDIT: Okay.. so looking back at my order on PW.. I actually did only order 1 AT cannon and they threw in a bonus, so it was a freebie, not a mispack. I guess I was planning on picking up the flame thrower on the order I'll be placing next week

Cool looking head added to the lineup. I think it looks best on the Buster on the left. Thanks for running the contest and here is my entry!

And now I am curios if the Dreamforge Games 15mm Weapons would fit.
they have the best looking (in my opinion) Knight size Gatling and Siege gun out there

MLaw - links, names - both are fine. Box shaped launcher idea is being passed to the design team. They may have some other ideas of course...

And today, you can see some of the upcoming models from Puppets War on this picture. What grabs Your attention most?

I already have a huge Space Wolves Army, but another unit will always fit.

Can I post a wish to the design team?
please make separate leg pieces of those models and sell them "cheap" (If they are affordable in big amounts I see me converting 6k of Space Wolves with new legs)

I bought the middle one and am putting it together now, I have no weapons yet, wish there was an easier way to navigate the parts that are usable on the prime. When seeing the pictures in the store, i had no clue how to attach them or which to use.

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.

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

Any update on that terrain teaser?

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.

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?

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

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

Loving the Ranger Heads.

Brace yourselves, winter is coming!

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???

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:

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

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.

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

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.

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!

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.

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.

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...

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.

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 )

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

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.

I have to admit I'm kinda of disappointed. I thought it was going to be a new service that cleaned and assembled the miniatures for you. Instead it is was a express order... oddly I'm actually ok waiting 2 weeks but then again I order a lot of things from Japan so I'm used to the slow boat.

the_Armyman wrote: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.

It seems to be mostly volume of orders and relative size of their shop that makes it a 12 day lead time to fulfillment.

PW you guys know I have been one of your biggest fans since nearly the beginning. I have also been an honest critic.

I have to agree that I think this is a bad idea. Your handling time is pretty long as is. Now, true or not, someone may feel their order is delayed further because you guys are more focused on getting the 'express' orders out the door.

I think it would be much better if you could find a way to reduce your overall handling time for EVERYONE.

Paying for faster service is like 'pay to win' in video games and genrally pisses off more than a few people. You guys have made tons of ground in the PR department over the last year. This could be a big step back.

I think they have delibratly chosen a high number of days that they can comfortable guarantee not exceeding. If it can b packed faste than it's a bonus. (It went faster last time I ordered, though that was a few years ago).
Also, I presume that everything is not in stock in great quantities so sometimes stuff need to be casted 'a la minute' so to speak.

Almost as awkard will be when you get a load of priority orders at once, and all of them require replacing moulds and doing a bunch of casting from scratch

you;ll end up with at least some of them going out late and having paid for express treatment those 'premium' customers aren't going to be happy either

(just look at the grief Amazon is not getting as their next day delivey from prime just isn't working reliably, and people used to praise them for their shipping, lots of unhappy shoppers out there about that)

I have to agree with this. Unless you've got a large enough back-end to ensure that this will never happen (something I highly doubt), then this is only a road to heart break and upset customers.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of classifying customers in separate tiers. Express shipping is fine but customer orders should be processed in the order they were received first and by ease of manufacture second (so if you're already spinning a particular mold for an item that is out of stock then you run off one more for an order later down the queue since that saves lots of people time). You don't charge people for the priveledge of skipping the retail line. What's next? An optional 10% surcharge to make sure you get the absolute best case of your item with less bubbles/flash/etc from the available stock? It's a dangerous and slippery slope to head down.

Who cares, if they can get a few people to pay an absurd express charge wtfn?

Your concerns are passed to the company management. I will try to get some answers of course.

Time for a Christmas competition

Gifts, gifts, gifts. Would You like to receive one more? Then please write a letter to Santa. We will choose two letters we like most. Winners will receive 40 EUR vouchers for our webstore. You have time till Christmas' Eve, when we will announce two winners. Ready? Start!

Would you like us to mail it in, pm, or email it?

I'm guessing email, that's where I'll send mine anyway...

And if I could chip in on this express assembly thing I think you should scrap it as soon as possible. Not to sound like a whining child but it just doesn't seem fair to everyone who does not want to pay for it as it implies they wait even longer as others are pushing their way to the front of the line so to speak.

Maybe do the same thing that Forgeworld does? Spend a ludicrous amount of money (theirs is around $500) and that qualifies you for free express shipping. That way the customer has more incentive to spend even more money for a better reward. After all, getting your order processed in two days still means a two or three week wait for the Polish postal service to get their act together and send the darn thing!

Dear Santa,

I have always loved puppetswar models, and have some of their bits scattered around my spacewolves army. I recently started creating my own game and am currently playtesting it.

I based my description (vaguely) off of some of their model range and it would be awesome to have models on the table that look the way I envisioned them.

I've been a good husband and father, and I've worked very hard to ensure my family got what they needed. Please, let me get something this cool under my Christmas tree this year!

Thank you.

Dear Santa,

I recently bought some Space Insect Heads from Puppets War to use for conversions.

I love the design of these heads, which I think represent some of the most original work Puppets War has ever done. And the heads definitely fill a niche, as there aren't very many rational-looking, highly developed Insect Aliens on the market right now.



But that open niche also leaves me without any cultured space insect bodies to put the heads on that will do them justice. Yes, I could put them on any humanoid trooper body, but have you seen these heads? They are brilliant! I'd love to see their design aesthetic carried over into their bodies. Nothing else will look quite as good, and they deserve it.

So I'm asking for this Christmas for Puppets War to consider making sci-fi, technologically armored, insectile bodies to go with their Space Insect Heads. I would love to see them produce a bipedal body type with four arms sporting hi-tech equipment. I also think these could go great with the Cyber Invader / Insectoid Swarm models that they already do.

Puppets War Space Insect bodies, Santa. Their current non-existence is one of the great injustices of the world, and only you and your elves have the power to change that.

Dare to make a difference this holiday season.

Sincerely yours,

Vermonter

First post today... as we would like to answer for some questions and opinions concerning our Express Assembly option.

It happens that our customers ask for a express shipping - this is the reason behind this service. If there is someone there willing to pay extra, his order will be prepared - for extra cost - faster.

After long tries we came to the conclussion that we are able to ship SOME of the orders faster. Don't get us wrong - models still need to be casted and be packed. Two days is THE MINIMUM we are able to do that.

We don't expect huge volume of such "Express Assembly" orders and we think that minor numbers of them will not negatively impact our standard orders. If we will be wrong, we will remove "Express Assembly" option, of course. Still, we think that we will be able to prepare small number of orders a little faster.

Company changes all the time, we constantly strive to improve our technological process, as we want to deliver best quality products for reasonable prices. We constantly try to improve time of preparing orders too, we are getting better with each passing year.

Period of 12 working days, which is indicated in our webstore for preparing orders gives us some time for unexpected occurances. And believe us - they do happen. Currently we are able to send 99% of orders faster (or even much faster) then those 12 days.

We hope that this answer some of your concerns.

Dear Santa,

I am not going to feth with you. I've been a naughty boy, but I need anything you can supply me. Ammo, weapons, some undamaged shoulder pads, whatever. I'll take anything at this point. Me and the few remaining troopers are on the brink of destruction, surrounded by disgusting bug creatures, power-armoured biker gangs and a motherfething football team of orcs.

I might be naughty Santa, but I've got some good men in my ranks and they don't deserve to be murdered by an orcish quarterback. What do you say? Can you drop a suit of Termos armour my way?

Sincerely,

Dear Santa,
Now this may be a new concept but when I was birthed from your workshop, many moons ago, I absorbed much of the intelligence (and fluids) of several elves, becoming the super doll Freya Lilith Ivy.
No doubt that name springs fear even still!
So what have I to write to you about? Well I am glad you asked!
It has come to my attention that this company in particular has some very entertaining heads that remind me of Kamen Rider and other Power Ranger sort of shows.
I enjoy watching them and felt, when I saw them, that perhaps I can put my love of these sorts of shows into model wargaming!
I hope you can make a small doll's dream come true...
If not, then I will be forced to open the seal and release the bees.
Your friend, Ivy.

Dear Polish Resin Santa,

I have been a pretty good boy this year. But I am not allowed to buy anymore toys for myslef this year! And thise guys have made so much great stuff that I want so bad!

Dear Space Santa:

As a pointy eared Space Elf heathen, I often find resin reinforcements to be sadly lacking in things that I want. With the release of a new supplement just for heathen Space Elf goodness, I'd like to convert up some scary spooky space elves.

The flaming skull heads or hooded skull heads in your line look about perfect for my projects! Please, Space Santa, send me some spooky skulls so I can bathe the starways in degenerate pink skinned mon-keigh blood!

Dear Christkind

While my other letters are written by me for my children, this time I want to place a wish for myself.
You know that I am into model building since a very long time and this year I found something special I want to have.
The new PupptesWar stuff is amazing and while I already bought some models I want to ask if I may get more of them for Christmas.

Sincerely

Dear Santa,

it all started when my wife went to the doctor the other day. She told me she was having headaches and needed a quick checkup. Fool as I was, I believed her. She seemed quite nervous when she left, and I detected a note of excitement in her voice as she said goodbye. She also wore her nicest pantyhose and carried a big bag with her, which should've tipped me off, but I was a bit out of it from sniffing plastic glue fumes all night while building models, and didn't think much of it at the time.

Anyway, as the hours went on, I began to wonder how thourough this doctor had to be to take this long for a normal examination. So I decided to go check on her. I packed my Space Marine Scouts in my bag, for luck, and drove to the doctor's office. Her car was still there and I wondered if my worst fears would be confirmed.

Clutching a Scout in my hand to become more stealthy, I discreetly sneaked up to a window and peeked in. Inside was an old nurse typing on a computer, which was nothing out of the ordinary. What was though, was the fact that she was browsing the Puppet Wars website! I was stunned and decided to sneak into the facility to find my wife.

As I stealthily made my way into the office, I was nearly discovered many times. Once I had to throw my Scout into an opposing corridor to lure away a nosy guard who was very close to my hiding place. The place was strangely empty. No patients, no nurses... as I approached a big room at the end of the hall, I suddenly heard laughter ringing through the halls. Was this it? Would I find my wife in these blasted corridors? Was she kidnapped? I had to find out. Quickly peeking around the corner to make sure no one was around, I made my way to the big double doors that led to the room where the laughter had originated. I started hearing more voices, male, female... all laughing and seemingly having a grand ol' time. What were they doing? I stealthily cracked the door open just a few inches, and peeked through...

"PENETRATING HIT!!!!" There she was, in her nicest clothes, standing over a table and rolling dice, moving Space Marines around on the table... and on the other side of the table, the doctor! The room was full of people playing 40k, and I was stunned. My God! This whole doctor's office was just a front for a secret 40k tournament league, and my wife was part of it! She had lied to my face, hidden models around the house and painted them when I was asleep! My vision was blurring and I was feeling faint. As I heard "INSTANT DEATH ON YOUR WARLORD, BITCH!" in the voice of my wife of 20 years, the world turned black, and I felt myself falling.

...and that, Santa, is why I need some cute cherubs. http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=95

Dear Santa,

Frankly, me and the lads have had a bit of a shocker this year. First it was the plasma gun – honestly, what kind of army goes and gives its guys weapons that blow up on 'em on the first use? I mean it wasn't all bad, I'd read the health and safety and all that, so it only took off one of my arms, but still... come on. How am I now meant to point inspiringly in the direction of the enemy for the boys to see, morale's hit an alltime low!

And don't even get me started on Dave. We was fighting this bunch of greenskins yeah, and one of the mentals went and headbutted him, right in the face. What's that about? The thing had a huge blooming axe for Emperor's sake, at what point did the forehead become the weapon of choice? At least Dave lived, but you should of seen his helmet man – half of it's still buried in the poor guy's face. We gave him a sack to wear instead, proper burlap stuff like, not the cheap rubbish – I care about my lads' safeties you know. But it's safe to say that its battle-presence overlays are... somewhat lacking. Plus it's not exactly doing the gang any favours when we hit the bars on leave, if you get my drift? It seems the ladies these days lack a good appreciation of hessian craftwork and solid stitching.

Stew's all right though, but some horn-helmeted nutter went and used a chainsaw to cut right through his freaking bolter. Fortunately, he's a creative lad and all, got a BTEQ in art and everything, so he's managed to fashion a very convincing replica out of sticks and mud. But while the Stickinator 3000 may represent the pinacle of the noble art of timber-based xenos extermination, its primarily splinter based injuries ain't doing that much for the glory of the Imperium.

Oh and then there's Jeff. Idiot went and got himself blown off the side of a building didn't he. A million and one automated armour functions and the klutzer still goes and gets both his legs crushed stacking the landing. We managed to get him hooked into a freight loader, but... well... have you tried re-wiring one of those things with just the one arm? I may have slightly ballsed up the servitor's connections, just a little like. Sometimes it gets a little confused about telling left from right, but to be fair there's no guarantee it wasn't like that before my work... Anyway, last week it maybe, kinda slammed him into a building fast enough to bring the whole thing down.

So, yeah. Please Santa help us out with some new gear, even the Grotz have started laughing at us these days, and have you tried getting Grot-dung out of burlap? Nightmare.

From,
Brian

Dear Santa,

It has been surprisingly a good year and I have been really good. We weren't sure how it was going to turn out since our son who is autistic was starting High School for the first time. High School for myself was not the best of times and he has had issues in Elementary School so we could only imagine the worse for High School. Fortunately it has turned out really well without any issues and surprisingly no issues with bullying because he isn't like everyone else. He seems happy and has found a little niche to fit in. For his good behavior he just might earn the keys to his very own Taurus AFV Exterminator. Obviously he wouldn't get the keys until he passes his driving test first. We are after all responsible parents.

The last few weeks however have been a bit rough. In the NorthWest here we have unfortunately been hit with a lot more rain than normal. I know we live in Portland and that means it always rains, but the whole NorthWest has had hard weather which has resulted in a lot of flooding and sinkholes appearing. The rain has caused delays, flooding and even our own sump pump went out in the basement. This has forced me to take drastic measures and order a Prime Battlewalker for my commute into work. It has definitely helped deal with the traffic, letting me move the cars out of the way and get through the flooded areas. Not to mention it has cut my hour and half commute in half. This has unfortunately caused some other drivers and citizens to become upset that I did need to employ some Strike Force to run security and watch over it.

The mini-army and vehicle though has had a negative effect mainly making my wife very jealous. This hasn't made the home environment very healthy. Just the other day she ordered her own Prime Battlewalker as well. This has unfortunately created a rift in the family because we only have room to park one of them in the garage. She doesn't want to leave her on the street where it can be stolen or vandalized. And because of her love of anything Asian themed she decided to order up a Bushi Striker security force. She has tried to talk a couple of them into using Space Insect headgear because they remind her of Kamen Riders, and other than having her own private army of ninja men, nothing was better to her than Kamen Rider ninja men.

We have been at odds since, constantly struggling for control and who has the right for the parking place in the garage. Given our forces that we employ and configurations, we have been evenly matched in terms of power. We are fairly evenly skilled but we are fearful this power struggle could destroy not only the city, our house, but also the family in the process. The children have holed up into a defensive perimeter with their own Battlewalkers on guard. They however have been trying to stay out it and not draw attention, since they only have a few MKII Turrets in defense as well.

I am writing to seek help from you Santa and believe you can hold the key to bringing this family back together again. We need your assistance from you to have your Evil Santa Helpers help lead an even larger Nightmare or Cyber Invader force to fight us. Now I know it may seem strange to want to bring another army into the city but it really is for a noble purpose. If we can muster an even larger, greater force than either myself or my wife employ by ourselves, then we will have to join forces. Not only is this for the good of the family but also for the city to fight off this scourge. In the end it will help bring about peace on this Earth because after all we all just want a little bit of peace this holiday season... so that we can destroy our enemies with our armies. I mean... spread cheer and goodwill towards all. Plus after they are defeated we can use their bodies to help shore up the river banks and build a second garage, thus preventing future flooding in the city and bringing peace to the house.

Thank you,
Sincerely,
a family divided hoping to become united once again

Tom Bisbee letter:

Tom Bisbee Dear Santa,

I am a huge fan! I love Christmas so much that I have made a humble effort to combine it with one of my other favorite things: Puppets War miniatures. And so with no further ado, I present for your edification my own personal version of "Twas the Night Before Christmas"...

Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the store,
Gamers were dreaming of minis by the score.

Tacticians were nestled all snug in thier beds
while visions of Crusaders danced through thier heads.
And having put all the gamers to bed,
I lay down myself, to rest my bald head.

When up from the rooftop, there arose such a clatter,
I rolled for my missile launcher
(and then rolled for scatter).

The template went wide
and I shook my head.
And spied in the store, a figure in red.

He was a jolly old elf (the fantasy kind, not space)
and he smiled with a cheerful look on his face.

Waking not one wargamer,
this man filled the display cases
with orcs and insectiods and various sized bases.

He delivered the minis and turned to me with a nod.
As if to say "This isn't the slightest bit odd".

He shot back up the chimney
like an ogre on the charge.
His sack of minis still full
with models both small and large.

8 Barghest Fiends drew his sled into the sky
and I watched him depart with a tear in my eye.

But as he rode away and out of sight, he called,
"Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!"

Dark Severance letter:

Dear Santa,

It has been surprisingly a good year and I have been really good. We weren't sure how it was going to turn out since our son who is autistic was starting High School for the first time. High School for myself was not the best of times and he has had issues in Elementary School so we could only imagine the worse for High School. Fortunately it has turned out really well without any issues and surprisingly no issues with bullying because he isn't like everyone else. He seems happy and has found a little niche to fit in. For his good behavior he just might earn the keys to his very own Taurus AFV Exterminator. Obviously he wouldn't get the keys until he passes his driving test first. We are after all responsible parents.

The last few weeks however have been a bit rough. In the NorthWest here we have unfortunately been hit with a lot more rain than normal. I know we live in Portland and that means it always rains, but the whole NorthWest has had hard weather which has resulted in a lot of flooding and sinkholes appearing. The rain has caused delays, flooding and even our own sump pump went out in the basement. This has forced me to take drastic measures and order a Prime Battlewalker for my commute into work. It has definitely helped deal with the traffic, letting me move the cars out of the way and get through the flooded areas. Not to mention it has cut my hour and half commute in half. This has unfortunately caused some other drivers and citizens to become upset that I did need to employ some Strike Force to run security and watch over it.

The mini-army and vehicle though has had a negative effect mainly making my wife very jealous. This hasn't made the home environment very healthy. Just the other day she ordered her own Prime Battlewalker as well. This has unfortunately created a rift in the family because we only have room to park one of them in the garage. She doesn't want to leave her on the street where it can be stolen or vandalized. And because of her love of anything Asian themed she decided to order up a Bushi Striker security force. She has tried to talk a couple of them into using Space Insect headgear because they remind her of Kamen Riders, and other than having her own private army of ninja men, nothing was better to her than Kamen Rider ninja men.

We have been at odds since, constantly struggling for control and who has the right for the parking place in the garage. Given our forces that we employ and configurations, we have been evenly matched in terms of power. We are fairly evenly skilled but we are fearful this power struggle could destroy not only the city, our house, but also the family in the process. The children have holed up into a defensive perimeter with their own Battlewalkers on guard. They however have been trying to stay out it and not draw attention, since they only have a few MKII Turrets in defense as well.

I am writing to seek help from you Santa and believe you can hold the key to bringing this family back together again. We need your assistance from you to have your Evil Santa Helpers help lead an even larger Nightmare or Cyber Invader force to fight us. Now I know it may seem strange to want to bring another army into the city but it really is for a noble purpose. If we can muster an even larger, greater force than either myself or my wife employ by ourselves, then we will have to join forces. Not only is this for the good of the family but also for the city to fight off this scourge. In the end it will help bring about peace on this Earth because after all we all just want a little bit of peace this holiday season... so that we can destroy our enemies with our armies. I mean... spread cheer and goodwill towards all. Plus after they are defeated we can use their bodies to help shore up the river banks and build a second garage, thus preventing future flooding in the city and bringing peace to the house.

Thank you,
Sincerely,
a family divided hoping to become united once again

Very cool and the walker in the tree shows how cool one of those would look lit up with LEDs!

Congrats to the winners! Merry Christmas all!

Damn you winners merry Christmas to all and may your stockings be crammed full of hobby goodness or socks

May the glue drip, scalpels slice and the paint flow

And now for something completely different...

The claws on the 3rd guy and the saw on the 4th guy are really awesome. Nice sculpts all around.

Since I was going to make a demon/nightmare death type army to fight against the other armies I've started building, those would work out. Now I have to wait. ^_^

Mutilators?

PRetty cool mutilator stand ins.. too bad mutilators have been utterly worthless since their inception.

While one could mutilate with these lads, I'm fairly certain they're the PW Eevil Termos sculpts, which means close combat termies more likely. Not that that's much of a thing for CSM either.

Two new products in our webstore today, both were asked for many, many times.

URSUS CHASSIS
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=551


URSUS-APC
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=550

may resist urge to buy, urge failing........

Is the URUS about the size of a main battle tank from a certain model company or is it larger or smaller?

135 mm length, 80mm width, 48mm height, according to their web site.

If you look at the link for the APC.. it's roughly Chimera sized.. I can't imagine you're using proxies in a setting that would require a strict footprint.. so you could probably use it as a Russ with no problem. There's an image with a human-sized infantry next to it on the APC entry.

Damnit! and here I have the wheeled Taurus aka Brick APC and they have to make a new tracked version!

Of course, as witht he Taurus, I would have to order turrets to go with the beasts!

I am happy to see an Ursus APC. I like those tracks. However my only complaint is that the style of the tracks doesn't really match the armor style of the hull. The hull is much smoother and hi-tech looking while the tracks are more primitive looking with lots of rivets.

These are still some of my favourite miniatures they have produced, they are evil looking nicely posed and just look awesome what more could you ask

How about some fantasy stuff in 2016? Your sci-fi stuff is really cool, but 'Viking' style warriors with the stylings of your Valhallans ect would be really cool!

panzer style sci fi tank!!!!

A forward facing artillery platform for your Ursus chassis, instead of a rear-facing one.

Orc bikes in a chopper style and trikes, human gangers bodies,heads and weapons

I just discovered them, I'm behind the times! I plan to do a headswap (it's a separate piece) for an armored boar head, and convert the tail, to use these as battle boars in a Hordes minions army (Lord Carver, 8 battle boars, 4 splatter boars, bone grinders, gobber chef). With 8 needed, multiple poses is crucial, so I'm hoping I can convert these up to work - will certainly post pics if it's a success

RiTides, I have wanted an excuse to buy those Fiends for a Looooooong time now! I love the look and can imagine a real translucent almost human flesh colour on them with veins running under the skin and ebony bone growths like teeth and claws. if only I can find a bloody traitor scheme and fluff that inspires me :-(

the fiends are amazing. i have 30.

I've got a bunch of them too, very cool beasties

Generic, rectangular shields. The shields currently in your product line have very specific looks.

Some that are rectangular and not covered in various details could be very good sellers as they'd have a wide variety of applications as pavises, riot gear, boarding shields etc.

Look at Kings of War and resculpt all the poor quality models and make them have regular sized legs. That should keep you busy for the next decade.

I 2nd the request for boarding shields please.

Would it be possible to get a tri-barrel machine gun like the tri-barrel laser cannon (not gatling style, more like the machine gun vehicle weapon you have)? Or.. maybe a mounting system for the prime for 3x barrel tips?

Unrelated, does anybody know how big the Cyber Arthropods are? Guessing they fit on a 40mm round base, ala Necron wraiths? Google is just giving me pics of the MK1 'pods, not the newer ones with their big bulky tales. This pic would help me more if I knew how large the other Cyber Things are:



This shot makes them look huge, even if the lil' four-legger droid goes on a 25mm.

More heads in American football helmets (Your orc ones are great and humans in football helmets are surprisingly hard to find).

Other than that, more bare heads suitable for marines. Preferably of various racial aesthetic morphology. Asian, South american natives etc...

@Boss Salvage, this should help. It's the insect rather than cyber versions, but that's an Anvil/GW Marine, a Mantic Enforcer and an Infinity fusilier for scale.

Something appropriate for a wave of cold which hit Poland lately...

Assorted shoulder pad multi-packs. Black Legion or Deathwatch armies both incorporate members of many different chapters/legions/warbands, and for those of use just looking to do a small number of them, it would be lovely to be able to buy a pack with one of each kind of shoulder pad.

Mostly? Space elves! There are third-party space marines and space Orks and space robots everywhere you look, but there are very few space elves which aren't Games Workshop. Some more options on that front would be amazing!

Absolutely! I was going to suggest space elves myself, but I didn't because I thought nobody else cared. Games Workshop's Eldar are grossly out of date and also hideously proportioned. If we could get some Puppetswar-quality alternate "space elves", I'd probably put together a whole army of them. Seriously - the ancient, ugly sculpts and awful "heroic scale" proportions are the only reason I don't have a real Eldar army (alongside there being zero alternatives on the market). A full compliment of Aspect Warrior-style miniatures would be great, of course, but honestly I'd be happy with just a single squad of basic, generic, Guardian style elves in truescale. Oh, and female ones! Actually, if squads were divided into, say, 5-packs of all-male and all-female, that'd be wonderful.

As for other suggestions, I'd really love some more demons in the same style as the Barghest Fiends and Harpyes. It's surprisingly difficult to find really nice demon miniatures, and I'd love to be able to represent the diverse, hellish weirdness of the Warp in ways that Games Workshop's very limited Chaos Daemons range just can't.

EDIT: One last thing (sorry!) - all I said about Space Elves can also be applied to Gothic Space Nuns. Just saying.

Gothic Space Nuns? Tasty name...

But for today we have something else for You Two heads sets inspired by Roman empire:

PRAETORIAN HELMETS
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=553

PRAETORIAN CLOSED HELMETS
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=552

Hope you like them

Those are outstanding. Just... wow.

Those helmets are amazing and would work with so many types of armies and minatures!

Kudos! Well done!

The faces on the open Praetorian helmets are exceptionally well done. Especially the guy grimacing and grin/sneering.

It's the same faces for each new variant of helmets or facial hair though.

I think they look best on the stryker guy on the right in the example group pic.

PuppetsWar wrote:

Well, you could also use "Sisterhood Battalion". Space Elves could be called "Aeldar", since GW think that "aelf" is an acceptably unique name for elves in Age of Sigmar. Or "Sisters of Neglect".

Those closed helmets are definitely cool. They really demonstrate how swapping a few parts can really make a model unique. I think that's a real strength of the PW stuff, especially the Strikers.

Sexy helmets.

Puppetswar,

Just wondering what size base is required for your Stone Golem? I would be looking to use it in Fantasy games, so knowing the right sized square base to put it on before I got it would be cool (will also allow me to judge the size of it, width wise).

Cheers!

Yeah, that is what caused me to fall in love with the miniature in the first place. Just wondering if it can fit on a 75x75mm base, or if you need a 100x100 base for it.

110 mm of height, so I'd say that 10x10 base will be much better. But this is my opinion only, I like bigger bases personally.

Something good for most settings:

It does come with everything pictures. It is "7 resin pieces of iron fence and double gate". In other words there are 7 pieces of the fence, plus there are 2 double gates for a total of 9 fence pieces. That does also include the 13 fence parts for the innards of the gate. It can be a bit confusing the way it is phrased.

Thanks! I think I should be able to squeeze it on a 75x75mm base, thus making it a better buy for me than the Mantic one, and much better looking too!

As Dark Severance said New armours should be in the store really soon. Few weeks at the most I think now.

Legionary Closed Helmets

For the head sets, I think some of them might be better off without the "grinning" face that has been in most of the latest ones - it's great for something crazy, but not as good for a disciplined trooper. Just a suggestion if you have another expression possible

When you need some serious firepower... Look no further!

Due to popular demand we've decided to add this set of arms to the store.
Prime Battlewalker Arms
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=560

I haven't gotten a shipping confirmation for an order I placed Dec 30th (Order #013803, although the Order Confirmation email says 31st, I guess due to time zone differences).

Has anyone else placed an order since then and gotten a shipping notice?

Did you register and sign up on the website? If you are can you check your order status there?

The last order I did was 11/18/2015. It was marked "Ready for shipment" on 12/09/2015 but wasn't actually tagged as "Shipping" until 12/15/2015. Otherwise there was 11/03/2015 ordered, marked "Ready for shipment" 11/14/2015 and then marked "Shipping" 11/18/2015.

Although I'd probably say another week given schedule as that was on the tail end of holidays.

Today it is twelfth working day. It was probably shipped, but I will check this order number.

It occurred to me to mention one last thing about those totally original Gothic Space Nuns. If there's even the slightest chance that they'll be considered, I want to add that they need to not be "sexy". They'd need stompy boots, not high heels, armour and reinforced chests, not skintight metal with corsets and boob-cups. It's really easy to keep the same style, too; just extend their armoured collar/gorget down their chest. All knightly and such.

So correct that to Gothic Space Nuns in Heavy Armour That Look Cool And Not Sexy. That'd make a lot of people very happy.

Dark Severance - Thanks for that, didn't realize I could just check it on the website which is kind of obvious in hindsight. Whoops!

Puppets War also messaged me showing it shipped on the 14th, and I got the shipping email notice this morning (odd that the shipping notice came a week later, maybe it was just a glitch with the email system?).

Really appreciate the prompt response, thanks very much guys!

The difference between shipping and notification is due to waiting time for tracking number from Postal Office. We receive them few days after actual shipping.

Two new sets from Terrain category in our webstore:

Bridge
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=563

River Set
http://puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=564
It is time to say: Alea iacta est!

What's the total length of the river using all pieces?

Or length of each piece if you want to get into that?

Saw the bridge was 150mm, are the other pieces about the same?

I've always wanted to do a river terrain piece. There's some cool videos on using layers and layers of glossy mod podge (from the dollar store ) and a hair dryer to create a really nice water effect. You would have to paint these first with the appropriate colors (I'd probably do a muddy brown with green) then do each layer on top. Since these are resin I'd probably avoid the hot setting.

Also.. ABOUT that Prime walker jump pack?? Is it coming soon? I would like to buy one for my walker and .. to test fit for a conversion for a helicopter model that I think could be made into a futuristic VTOL.

Total length is about 130 cm, counting all bends. Maybe slightly more.

And I want to apologize. Yesterday I asked about sending your suggestions via e-mail because it would be more convenient for us (me). Forget it. This thread is specifically for such suggestions, propositions, ideas, etc. It should be convenient for You - our customers, not us

And today, something for our American friends

Precise length is 54 inches. So about 138 cm.

Sorry for not updating for a few days, as I was on a short (very short) vacations. But I see that Dark Severance updated thread with new releases Thanks a lot.

So, I will show two more pictures, which weren't shown here yet.

First shows how our recently released river set fits with our other terrain products:



And this is preview of soon to be released Crusade Bikers:

Any news on the Knight-styled Strikes previewed a few months ago (carried a sword, wore armour and a tabard)? I seem to recall you guys saying they'd be released soon, but I don't remember them ever actually appearing on the store (unless I missed them).

I'm glad the eagle theme isn't too heavy on those bikes. I already have a ton of DA Bikers but those would look great as Templars.

The bikes have robes (or caparisons, I suppose)! Surprisingly, it works well.

Luckily, motorcycle engines don't get hot.

I have a suggestion

Puppetswar: Could you consider adding terminal points to the rivers? Like.. a small pond or maybe just runoff like it starts getting rocky and fanning out like a transition into just regular non-water terrain?

As big as these are, I would imagine they are internally cooled. Especially given that they're meant to be operated on an assortment of atmospheres/environments.

Hey guys,

Just want to pass on my thanks for the order I placed a little while back now.

It was predominately for head swaps on my Black Templars and Night Lords, but I'm really happy with the casts, and I'm 100% certain you threw in a few extras for me!

Those Crusder bike heads have me interested!

Set contains ten resin casts.

Those sensors are cool.
What may not be obvious to everyone without going to the product's page and exploring a little, is that they do have holes for magnets. So any of those open peg/magnet slots you might have don't have to be left bare anymore!

And today something totally different.

We would like to show demo version of first Chess set by our design. This one is inspired by Greek mythology but in mind we have whole range of highly detailed chess boards and pieces including fantasy, historical and sci-fi theme.

We would like to know what do you think of that idea and what kind of chess set you would like to see on your shelf.

Awesome!

That is pretty damn fantastic, some superb designs there. What kind of production methods will be used for these? Coloured resins? Some other material? Any rough estimates on cost yet?

Product looks fantastic!

Will you be selling it cast in two different colors like that, with a wash applied to bring out the detail? I'm guessing that's what is shown there, and it looks quite good!!

I would be interested in a fantasy set although the Greek mythology one is not really as targeted for this market, of course. Like Paradigm, I'd love to know what the general pricepoint area you're looking at for these is.

Finally, one suggestion - a hollow area of the base that is easy to add a weight to (for example, to fill with BBs / pellets). If this option were available, I would probably fill mine and put felt on the bottom, too, although I wouldn't necessarily expect them to come like that. But making it possible for someone to weight the pieces would be really appreciated - especially with how tall some of those are!

It would probably be as simple as leaving it hollow in the bottom area - and someone could use pellets + hot glue to fill it, then cover with felt (which can also be hot-glued in place). You may want to include the small squares of felt in this case, or just a sheet of felt that the user could cut up with scissors if you don't have an easy way to cut it up there (a low powered laser cutter is probably ideal).

Wow! That is one sweet chess set!

Also handy if you ever want to build a ruined temple terrain piece!

I kind of want to see what you could do with an entire mythological army, these sculpts are right on the money.

Wow. Those Taurus rooks are awesome.

Man you guys have come so far.

Honestly I would like to see a sci-fi Chess set inspired by your current striker and chaotic forces.

Cool! A suggestion for future sets:

Classic monsters (Vampire, Frankenstein's Monster, Fishman, Wolfman, etc)

Angels and Demons

Steampunk

Angels and demons, now that's an idea!

I was actually going to suggest both of those!

IRON MUTANTS/HEADS AND PADS SET

Set contains 5 heads and 10 pads.

Will those heads fit Space Marines? I understand the last set of Iron Mutant heads were Guardsman sized.

Those are excellent! As others have said, angels and demons, steampunk (I'm thinking automotons, what do others think?) but I'd like to suggest a set for Chinese Terracotta warriors (either historical or fantastical would be cool)

I'm thinking clockwork/steam-powered automatons for Pawns, well-dressed (by which I mean MASSIVE hats) Gentlemen and Ladies for the King and Queen, mad professor types for bishops, mechanical animals for Knights, large cannons or something for Rooks.

While I like the classic look of the pieces, the board itself got me more interested.

One talking point that frequently gets tossed around is “Make a chess set from your army” Having themed boards could be fun. Could be interesting to have a build-you-own system, where you have different styles of squares, and could match the army. Not that far off from resin bases, just need to be squares big enough to fit under the pieces.

Stempunk, urban industrial, demon world, etc.

Would love some of them as single pieces to use as terrain in Malifaux or Frostgrave - probably wouldn't buy a whole set, but a few single ones would be really cool.

Even better if it was with a fantasy theme.
