To be honest the "Snout" one is the one I like the best.

yes, no, yes, yes, no

curse you for bringing out stuff I want but have no need for.

Although the top one could do for my chapter honour gaurd...

I really like the bottom left head, but with out the bird on the forehead. If it was blank we could throw our own symbols on as appropriate

I know this might be difficult to orchestrate... but you should make the heads available either as a set or individually. That way if I wanted to have a single squad to have a certain look... I could buy a "set" of 5-heads that all looked the same. I say this because I can see at least 4 different "races" or codecii in those helmets up there. Eldar, tau, space wolves and chaos marines (not including the pharaoh head which is really cool but doesn't "fit" quite as easily into a category).

You might get a lot more sales if people could pick the helmet they wanted & buy multiples of it.

I think that jackal head would be such an awesome item to base a Luna Wolves army around... choice man, just choice.

Must buy helmets.....

I agree with Gitsplitta on this one, its probably the main reason i havent purchased heads from anyone, usually only want 1 certain head style, which I understand is probably not cost effective for the maker ... but i would buy a ton

I'd also like this. Either with no insignia at all, or with a blank raised plate of some sort to which a number or decal of our own can be added.

I'd even like to see more subtle variations of this one, maybe with tear lines under the eyes. I don't know what those are properly called.

Dont really care for the Jackyl or "angry marine".... Im looking at Non-marine armys. The rest are good to go for purchase tho!

I've seen that flat faced (bottom left) somewhere before... So familiar....

Top right just makes me think "Dragon-born".

But they all look really great.

The anubis one is nice! I can't wait to see how they come out in final production

Emperor Zerg from Toy Story?

Top to bottom: Not perfect but when I look at them this is my gut feeling.

Chaos marine or Minotaurs
Blood Angel (thinking beauty/vanity... not so much "Egyptian")
Space Wolf, specifically Luna Wolf
Tau
Eldar

Huh. That is so last page my friend - please keep up!

No, yes, yes, yes, no. The problem with these helmets it that there is too much variety! Each helmet seems to have its own unique style. What I would like to see would be a set of 5 of each variation, they all have huge potential but I can see plenty of possibilities for more helmets, ie bird styles to go along with the jackal and different faces for the "death mask" style. Just my humble opinion!

-- Yeah, not to be a party pooper but if you can't buy the heads by individual style I'll be passing these by. The heads just look too different and are not cohesive if you get 1 of each. And I simply don't like 2 of them at all.

-- So sprues of all the same head or bust.

Still this.

I only want a pack of the Jackal helms, or none at all. I'd buy 20 right now if I can guarantee to get 20 of those heads, probably 30, and depending on what army I decide to go with, Necrons or Marines for this project, and possibly as high as 50.

New Bike wheels from Maxmini



4 for €5.99

Available here

In the past, MaxMini has always let you select which options you'd like in cases like this.

You only need to put the details in the 'notes/comments' section of your order.

It would help if the options are numbered, and maybe they'll do that too?

Will we be getting those pith helmets soon?

I forgot about those ……… how much do you get for a kidney on the black market …….

GIVE ME HEADS!! Seriously damn fine work. Luv the orkky, steampunky backpacks as well. Good job.

I do love the way we've got these great new helmets that everyone's talking about and then...


... a new wheel! It's... uhh... round? I guess...


... so exciting! Anyway, back to the cool Egyptian heads. My thoughts:



Top - Very cool.
Next one down - Nice sarcophagus mask. I like it.
Next one down - Very cool. A good 'techno-Anubis'.
Next one down - Awesome!
Next one down - Uhh... not good. See, I like the bird, as it fits with the theme. What I don't like is the angry-face teeth. They're a little too cartoonish for me, and really the picture from Toy Story 2 sums it up. If that was less prominent, it'd be fine.

I quite like the Teeth baring look.

Not quite sure what a "huge meh" is.

Have to agree with gits on this, i know it might sound like we are being picky, but you really would get loads more sales if we can pick between the certain heads, ie get 50 or so of a single design.
Having said that i know that normally i can pick and chose with you guys and i hope you keep that up, will be buying some soon !

I'd like to see the snout on the Anubis head be even more sleek. And I'd dig a Horus-style hawk head in a similar vein. Great stuff, though.

Pith Helmets Heads have been added to the webstore:

Do you have a general estimate when you expect the biohazard backpacks to be released?

Yes....im wondering this two....im lacking biohazrd warriors

I actually think the one with the snout is the best one, it reminds me of Stargate.

Finally I'm seeing the end of the paperwork that was a pain in the past couple of weeks. So soon I should be able to share some details about new equipment and sevices we should get .

But in a meatime I'll try to catch up with some new releases:



Let me know what do you think.
