I see H.B.M.C. beat me to the punch, so let me just add in...

Yes, those guys!

Wow Sure, they're expensive, but they're pretty much EXACTLY how I imagined Skitari to look like.
They cost too much for a troop unit, but they'll make nice Stomrtroopers.

Any reason these are in metal instead of resin?

Very cool! I bet the one wish most people will have is that those guys would have been multi-part for posability etc.

Still... very cool

Those models are really cool. I can't say that I like the Christmas elf paint jobs. (I know it's supposed to Admech but it just dioesn't work for me.)

I think I would go with a green Dr. Doom feel with them.

GG

How are they really going to charge that much. Thats upsetting. Awesome models though.

Very nice models, I've been waiting for them for a long time but they are really cost prohibitive.
Sadly, I'll have to pass.

pee's pants...........WOW!

Very cool, but $6 each? Yikes. I dunno if they are worth it, compared to GW vostroyans for example which cost less. Still, good looking.

I like them. Verg good, but 9.67 for 2?

Your complaints have been heard

Micro Art now offers (also for preorder) sets of 10 for 34 Euro (instead of 48.80) and sets of 5 for 21.96 Euro (instead of 24.40):

That's a nice move from them, but which minis will be included in the pack. They have 3 different guns, how can I equip them if I use them as a unit in a 40k army?

$46 for 10 is a lot more reasonable. I will consider getting a couple squads myself.

I think you can ask for specific ones. That might have been a different company though.

£2.50 (or thereabouts) a figure is pretty good, I shall pass this on to a guy at my club who is doing admech.

Sorry for the tiny bit of threadromancy, but I just did an order for the Iron Brotherhood products and wanted to know if the guys from Micro-Art have a presence here at Dakka (ie. someone I can PM) about the order I just made.

Thanks!

So when is the spider thing coming out?

I want the guy standing next to it to come out first.

Um, BOTH PLEASE!

That spider-thing would make a KICKIN' stalk-tank.

I too wish the 'guy standing next to it' was coming out.

THAT is the one I am really after.

Micro Art Studio keeps teasing us with that image, and then releases versions that are close, so close!

And yet, so far...

Not all commission work is also cast and sold in the store. Guess it WAS commission work, right?

I dunno. There were a lot of them, and it'd be awesome if they were released.

H.B.M.C. wrote:I dunno. There were a lot of them, and it'd be awesome if they were released.

Maybe if they hear about how the 'public' would like versions closer to this one...

Of course, they'd hear about it easier on their own forum, so, maybe that's were we should be posting too!

Reminds me of the DKoK Ork heads: The moulds were also done for a commission first. Then, after a demand, they added this to the shop. But only the heads, not everything else Hortwerth made for this army.

Some bad news for those of us who Pre-Ordered:

Micro Art Iron Brotherhood delay
Micro Art Studio have announced that their Iron Brotherhood infantry figures will be delayed.

From their website:

We want to apologise to all our customers who have ordered Iron Brotherhood HTTP-01 for a shipping delay that will occur.

Due to the fact that our partner casting company had a delay we’re forced to move the shipping date of Iron Brotherhood HTTP-01. The estimated time of the arrival is April 28th,2010.

Everyone who have taken part in our pre-order will receive a gift as a compensation.

Awww! I was hoping to get my Skitarii troops before our next Dark Heresy game. Oh well, the other Iron Brotherhood stuff I ordered has shipped, so maybe it'll show up by then (fingers crossed).

Still, not all bad news - they are coming, just later, and we get something for free!

Micro Art has just released their first two hard foam terrain pieces:





http://www.shop.microartstudio.com/index.php?language=en
More to be expected in the future.

Can you use spray primer on that foamy terrain stuff? I'm guessing no because it's foam?

I don't know exactly, but I am pretty sure you can basecoat it with spray like the foam terrain by Noch / Ziterdes / former GW which is not styrofoam but a resin foam.

Nice looking simple terrain pieces. I like very much. 30ish CAD a piece I am not so sure of. Anyone know what shipping would be like to north america?

The Warstore distributes Micro Art products in North America, others as well. Maybe wait until they stock the new terrain.
OTOH, direct shipping to North America is a flat rate of 8 Euro (and the Euro is very low currently).
