lol, I'm never one to post such things(in fact never)and usually bite my tongue, but come on! While all very good models, they are clearly rip offs of existing ideas/models or at least been heavily influenced so much so that they ended up looking almost the same. Little thought has went into turning these out. " oh IG we'll change them slightly, oh star gate we'll make a fat glider, oh robocop2, no one has ever seen that movie we'll copy the crazy ass machine that goes nuts and kills a bunch of folks. and aliens APC, that's already been brought up.

It's lazy and unoriginal.

end rant, sorry for being slightly off topic but this stuff just twigged something in me. Prepares for torrent of abuse about how I'm wrong.

So don't post it. Why don't you make a rant about the Khurasan Space Demons, or the Eldritch Horror range, or the EARTHDOOM range, or the mid-tech human defense force, or the mid-tech humans in power armor, or the mutant giants, or even the teran federal army models?

Seriously, Khurasan makes pop-culture inspired miniatures, mostly in 15mm. Who the cares? And why do you give a crap? Is it your job to run around pointing out what art you feel is intellectually and creatively bankrupt? So Khurasan makes 15 mm models inspired by decades old pop culture. Does that mean Khurasan is not doing something new and different? Does that mean that what Khurasan does is completely unoriginal and not in any way creative?

There should be room for such creativity, there is in fact room for such creativity, and maybe you should think twice before ing on someone else's work.
