Personally I found the film disappointing, in the same way that Terminator 2 would have been if you'd put all the action parts at the beginning, then killed Arnold and filled the last half hour with Sarah Connor despairing about the impending nuclear holocaust. But it did have some freakin' sweet action, and, getting to the point at last, hot chicks.

So, without further ado, a couple of pics I snagged from Reaper's preview gallery.

Not- Baby Doll

Not- Amber

http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/previews/latest/50229

These were sculpted by Patrick Keith, who has done a few models I love, some that I hate, and a lot of stuff that just falls in between. I think these are sitting somewhere around the high end of the scale...but the real test will be whether he can do a good Not- Rocket.

They're scheduled for an April release.

EDIT: Prices are now up; they're $5.99 (£4.79) each.

**Breotan**

Wanna see not-Blondie.

**Alpharius**

My fav was Sweat Pea - where is she?!?

**The Dreadnote**

Hopefully they'll be made and released soon, while the film's still current.

**Thunderfrog**

Rocket ftw, in my opinion.

This is what I wanted to say.

**Viktor von Domm**

the film was so boring i have tried to view it several times...on the web.... but fall asleep every time... but i think i would like these minis very much... with a little prayer i hope they could release the giant samurais and the clockwork zombies too...also i would just love to get that walker of amber in the first team sequence...

**SkaerKrow**

Waiting for Rocket. Still, good for Reaper for jumping on pop imagery in such a quick fashion.

Naughty.

Maybe if you were in the Movie Theater where you are supposed to be, rather than in some comfy chair at home...

Sounds like you actually liked more of the film than you realize!

**Anung Un Rama**

Nice minis, but what I really want is the Gatling Gun Samurai.

**Troy**

Wow, what a monumentally bad idea. Minis aren't very good either.

**The Dreadnote**

Well, they also do Reich of the Dead if you want Nazi zombies...

I really shouldn't bother, but I have to admit I'm curious - what's a bad idea? Making models based off film characters?

**Viktor von Domm**

the reich of dead i know of...

the minis look very good to me...for now i cant seem to find a fault...

and yep... its seldom to find a babysitter to watch over three yxoungsters...so if i want to see a movie the comfy chair it is...^^

**Klawz**

I need Rocket, just so I could paint it and give it to a friend of mine who looks just like her.

**The Fragile Breath**

Way to go, Reaper! I personally freaking loved the movie, and I too want to see a not-Sweet Pea.

You Git!!!

**Boss Salvage**

+1 to the Rocket Fan Club

Bit surprised that Reaper is doing this, but no complaints from me!

**Viktor von Domm**

not really tabletop size but... well...

have a look

**Armorum Ferrum**

I guess the miniature wouldn't be the only thing you'd give your rocket lookalike friend Klawz

On a serious note the minis don't look that bad, pity the film sucked so much though

That's a miniature too.

**Quintinus**

The thing that ruined the movie for me was Emily Browning looking totally ugly outside of the movie.

XD She hasn't even seen the movie yet. But she looks EXACTLY LIKE ROCKET. Which also made the movie very sad for me.

Does anyone even like Blondie? I thought her to be the most forgettable character.

**Happygrunt**

Why cant we have one of that nice old guy? He was cool!

Reaper, I demand the whole team, plus clockwork zombies, plus.... forget it, just make the whole WW1 sequence a model range.

Yes, please! I would love to have a model of that bunny-faced power armor.

**RiTides**

I'd love to see some of the bad guys... have only seen the previews, but some of the things they were fighting looked awesome.

**Alpharius**

They were indeed!

And really, the Big Three Evil Samurai Demon Things NEED to be made!

Overall, a fun movie, if you went in looking for a fun movie!

Probably 'cause she had almost no screen time. I kept wondering when they were going to do a bit with the focus on her, but alas...

**Mr Nobody**

What I want to see are models of the giant samurai monsters in the movie, those would be awesome models.

Nobody likes Blondie. Nobody.
