Sorry but I love Sodapop's complete line so far and own most of them. This is the latest concept art for their new Relic Knight, One Shot!

Can't wait for this baby to come out!

I'm guessing, like Jayne, she names her favorite rifle.

Cheeky!

Doesn't quite look like a 'Vera' to me

want.

thats is all there is to say

Dreadknight counts as!

Seriously though, love it!

They had that one in the case at Adepticon, along with the new stuff from Super Dungeon Explore.
It was painted very much like the art above, and there was another clear resin relic knight in the case.
According to the Soda Pop Demo guy, there will be a game for the Relic Knights and other stuff.

The SDE stuff looked like it could be plastic. And was scaled back up to the size of the limited models that came out awhile back.
There's a Kobold Giant/Troll thing that is just awesome.

couldn't that little guy with the mauser just cap her. Stupid open top walkers.

The little guy is her familiar, or whatever they call them. His name is Fritz

It is a lot more "mecha" looking than the previous designs.

I'll get one.

very nice looking mech but i think i'd prefer a bit less obvious butt cheek on the mini. hopefully the pilot is a separate piece that can be swapped out for something more conservative when playing around heathen (i.e. non-gamers).

I figured, but still. She is driving an open topped mech. All you need is a frag grenade to take her out.

pfttt. every set of rules for anime mechs i've seen has a unmodified 2+ save vs obvious attacks and realism.

actually no you don't, all you need to take her out is a model knife...because its a model...not reality...she'll never be shot or have grenades thrown at her...unless its south america who use guns and grenades for painting

sodapop fail! I can't see any bewbs from here!

Yeah, the SDE box is going to be plastic. Bear Drood was awesome.

Smexy

Awesome. I am going to have to pick this one up too.

A) Why is its right hand so tiny?

B) Am I the only person who doesn't like sodapop's work? It just seems to be scantily clad girls in suggestive positioning on various mecha. Also, why the WWI/WWII mashup helmet on the little guy?

Generally I like it, but...

- the tiny right arm and manipulator looks goofy. I'm not so sure that would look nice on the physical mini where you can't hide it like they do in the pic.
- I think I'd prefer to see the pilot inside with the cockpit sealed instead of up and out of it with the cockpit unsealed (yes, I realize that her head is likely never covered; but the front plate on the cockpit is clearly open on the figure).

Well... I'm not sure what types of things you encounter on a daily basis, but I don't think such things are really that common. I know in some anime that may be the case, but I don't recall seeing much of this type of thing in miniature games/lines. I'll agree that I don't like everything they've done, but I like most of it. Of course I will admit, I like scantily clad girls in suggestive positions on 'anything'.

On a somewhat related note, I heard they had a huge set up for 'Super Dungeon Explore' at Adepticon, but I couldn't find any pictures of it. Anyone got any?

Uhm... that's a bad thing? Check your pulse, it may be the case that you died a few years back and didn't notice.

Also, why not have a little WW1/2 mash up helmet on the little guy?

Now i have a reason to buy one of these models.

Might get it. Tear out the seat, the pin-up and the mutant baby, and plonk on an armoured cockpit, and I've got me an Armoured Sentinel for my Word Bearer zealot force. Though, I suspect the price will be earth shattering as they tend to be with Sodapop.

Loads of people dislike it, and that's fine, and loads of people like it, and that's fine too. Much the same as any other company.

I've got most of the Soda Pop figures. I bought the ones I liked and didn't buy the ones I didn't like.

Personally I think it's great that a number of small, characterful companies have managed to thrive during the current economic times.

Heresy
Soda Pop
MERCS
Hasslefree
Studio McVey
Antenociti's Workshop
Corvus Belli

I've been buying from all these guys.

There are plenty of historical and fantasy ranges too.

i like the model lots of conversions possible. I will be getting one

I think I just found me a new Tau aux hero, hope it looks as good in production

besides my gue'vesa hero needs a girfriend

WW2 Black Mage ftw!

If the model lives up to the art I'll be very interested...but I've been disappointed before.
