Or are you just happy to see me?

Pegasus the company that makes the fine, fine gothic buildings I love is branching out to science fiction kits. Above we have a pulpy Apollo 27 rocket. (what SHOULD have been) below a good old fashioned UFO.

This one tempts me...

This one doesn't but I know some people worship it.
(coming soon)
Now the crazy thing is they STILL do not have their building and terrain products up on their own site.
Crazy.

I've been wanting to use the Apollo 27 kit and turn it in to a Pulsa Rokkit for some time.

Ohhhhhh yes. Love this stuff. These would make great additions to my small collection of mid-century sci-fi models. $34.99 for a pre-built and plated Martian War Machine is not bad at all.

I can see using the Martian War Machines or UFO as alternate monoliths and some of the various Grey Aliens or pulp robots as Necrons.

I checked with the warstore and they won't be carrying these so I'll have to order directly.
Which kind of sucks since their website is banned in Red China.
Have I mentioned LATELY how annoying it is when you literally can't get to large swaths of the internet?

IIRC I remember hearing something about how it doesn't work in Firefox, but I'm not sure.

Yes... yes it would.
Still, even after that, all I see when looking at that Apollo kit is "Manticore and Death Strike Missile Launcher Conversion kit!"

You can get all of these through your local comic book store too as a note. They are great kits (I have them all) and look for a new one coming in the fall (it will be shown in the August issue of Previews Magazine).

I've also seen the rocket done up nicely (in concept form) as an Ork Fighta-Bomba.
Would probably make a decent Pusa Rokkit too...

That area 51 ufo would make an awesome super monolith for necron players especially compared to that goofy one in the apoc book.

Yep, the green clear parts in the kit are pretty much dead on for "necron green." I plan on using my Martian War Machine (they do an unpainted kit version as well as the painted one) in my Necrons as well.

Wow Tyranid Tim, that's a name I've not seen for a long time.
Welcome to Dakka!
