I love that game. It's the first mini game I ever played.

But at least it's gone to printing:

Far bottom of the article says mid Feb it will hit their warehouse, a street date soon after that. So...early March maybe.

Hello everyone, Ive been playing BT since the Battletoads days and yes the minis have always been a sore spot in the game. But we always took it as a challenge to make the best of a lesser quality mini, with exellent paint jobs and added details.

The newer generation of metal minis are just fine. The old Ral Partha stuff wasnt the greatest, but the iron Wind stuff is good.

I've just recieved mine but the thor (premium mech) was already assembled and one of the two rules cards was missing. The box was shrinkwrapped and was supposed to be new. Was it supposed to come like this or did I get ripped off and recieve a previously opened package?

The thor comes assembled. It was in all of the case i got and my freinds. and the set only comes with one card as well. The info is on Catalysts game site.

My Summoner was unassembled. Actually, both arms and a leg were broken off. Nothing that couldn't be fixed with glue.

On the plus side, I got an extra Atlas in my set.

Mine was too. Must say I was impressed by the new plastics. Would be great if they released a whole series of them.
