Hi everyone. I came across some mystery figures at my flgs in their consignment case. There were two sets and unfortunately I was only able to get pics of one set. The guy behind the counter seemed to think they were from VOID, but I do not recognize them. He thought the other set came from Vor, but the aesthetic didn't match. Anyway, I'm sure these aren't from VOID, but if any of you could provide some further information about what these are, it'd be great. It's really bugging me that I don't know what they are.

Very interesting. I'm not sure what these guys are. They aren't from any line I recognize, but the vibe and style reminds me alot of the Cobalt1 line and some of the newer space mercs from Blue moon 25 "Spacemen". AFAIK, they're not from those lines though.

Are they metal or plastic? Or less likely resin?

They're metal. They appear to be single piece figures. There were two more figures in this set. A commander type who I think had a sword and a heavy weapon guy with some kind of shoulder mounted weapon. The figures all appear to have been painted with just washes over the bare metal and then gloss coated.

The other mystery set, which I really wish I'd gotten pics of looked somewhat similar, though they had squarish helmets with full faced visors, smoother armor, and lacked the shoulder plates. The weapons on the other guys visually looked very similar to the ones used by Capitol troops from Warzone.

Yeah, styling looks about right for Cobalt, although I don't think I've seen that specific figure before.

After running the gallery for so long I'm used to pegging just about every obscure figure with a casual yawn.

I got nothing.

Hey thanks , I have a 4 or 5 of these guys that came with some Arbites I bought at a convention a few year back. I couldn't figure out where they were from, I thought maybe Void or Mutant Chronicles. Nice to know where they come from, mine are plastic though, but look exactly the same.

Yeah, I believe the metals came first - I have some of those in plastic as well.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
