How big are those space monkeys compared to the humans in AT-43 (or better yet, compared to a 40k Space Marine)?...

Are they as big as they look in pics, cause they look like they stand quite a bit taller then the normal human minis in the line (unfortunately, I haven't seen any in person though)...

I'm looking at collecting a Karman army, just cause the idea of Power Armor wearing Space Apes is just too good to pass up...

I just want to convert them to meganobz

Thanks to Warstore's bits trade in system, I have some Space Apes on the way. I'll take some comparative pictures of them next to Spaz Marienz (hurr!) for ya.

The Karmans are indeed quite large. About twice the size of a marine roughly.

No actual Karmans in the scale comparisons, but I believe the Karmans are to AT-43 infantry as the GK Termies are
to Eldar models (my best guess).

In fact, physically comparing them I'd say the Karman
is a head taller than the GK terminator and wider in build.

Sorry for the image quality.

Woo hoo! Thanks Malfred!

Aspirin....the teachers best friend!

I'd hate to hear what you have to say if I took a picture with
some razor blades in the shot.

Thanks for the photo. I was wondering how the production eyes looked and indeed, I will need to paint them in.

Dude, thanks a ton for the Karman-Grey Knight comparison pic...

That helped out immensely...

nice coincidence:

I dig your repaints of the Karmans.

Good looking out AAN. This has to be one of the single most asked questions I've seen when talking about AT-43. "How does x-trooper scale compared to y-trooper".

Nice to see them all next to one another.

God help me I'm so close to just dropping like 200 bucks on karman stuff...

Do it, dude. It's good for the soul.

Whose soul? Yours or his?

for the record, I purchased the main rulebook from the warstore not a few hours after posting that...

My Warstore order of Anakongas+Attachment, Kaptars, Easy Trike, and Imex Small Hexagon set is scheduled to arrive today. I'm giddy like a kid.

Everyones soul, really.



We are all part of a macro and microcosmic entity. A single being if you will. Tiny parts of a whole.

When one person buys into AT-43, that person becomes a growing, blossoming wargamer who makes GW cry with its lost revenue.

We all benefit from the good karma...

And just as in religion, where "Every step you take towards God, God takes more steps towards you than all sand in the seas", Grey Death has made a very religious step towards enlightenment.

I feel my karma strengthening already.

Malfred(or anyone else) have you picked up an Easy Trike yet? If so, does yours open? Mine seems to want to, but I think they may have glued the hinges. Just want to know if everyone else's is stuck closed or whether I have to wait for my 2nd and 3rd ones(because I want full Squads of all the Type * vehicles) to get to the interior.

No Easy Trike yet. Sorry!

No prob. Other than the non-opening canopy, I'm loving the model(no problems with the height pin, surprising amount of movement on the guns). Yes, I'm a little disappointed there's no Thunder Trike weapon options, but oh well.

it does open....vewy vewy cawfuwyyy!

easy trike in particular or all vehicles?

I'd be careful. Fiddling with my Anakongas I accidentally
ripped off the torso and rocket pack off one.

If You don't mind my asking, how easy do the Karmans come apart Malfred?...

Especially their heads...I ordered a box of Anakongas and the Anakonga attackment box, and have decided to use em for my special project, and am curious if I'll have to cut/carve the heads out of that power armor, or do they look like they'd pop out fairly easy?...

You'll have to cut them out, they're pretty solid in there.

Got my Anakonga boxes today, and yeah, You're right...

Seems like everything comes off them fairly easy, save those heads...Ended up having to exacto em off...

Luckily the neck guard area of the power-suits are a seperate piece, so after popping it off, the beheading was fairly easy...

Was worried I was going to have to dig em out and it'd scar up that part of the mini, but it would seem Rackham put alot of time and care into designing these guys...

Here's hoping the rest are as easily disassembled as the Anakongas were...

Kaptars are, as they share the same exact pieces. I think the Type ** infantry use the same basic bodies, but I'd have to actually get some in and not use the book as a guide.
