Complaining about the outfits of any miniature in a line of miniatures called "Bombshell Babes" seems a bit... silly.

You'd think everyone would understand this.
Personally, though, the telephone pole that comes with that free mini just turns me off. I know there are limitations to the material, and my confrontation selsyms had the occasional bent spear, but this is just way too think.
And no, that's not what she said.

You mean the sci-fi cowgirl? Doesn't look all that thin to me, though chances are I'll convert that spear of hers into something else anyway, maybe a power axe of sorts.

$40,000 Unlocks Vivian Gale as a Babes Choice!
We are almost to the point where we can fund putting Vivian Gale into production. After a little bit of restructuring our stretch goals, the new lineup looks fantastic! As soon as we reach the $40,000 mark we will add Vivan to the Target Acquired status and add a Squidman to every BOMB KIT!
We have revealed more Concept art for upcoming goals that are posted on the main page. Jump in and spread the word!
The support from backers so far has been fantastic! Let's keep the momentum going!
See more of the official update with new art here!

I'm really liking the concept art for pretty much all of them. Especially since many of them can actually fit into a number of genres and current games. I've got at least 3 for Infinity, 3 for Warmahordes, a couple for Relic Knights...

I've been a big fan of Patrick's for a while and I have this miniature from when it was originally available. I can't speak for certain on this release, but mine came with a few different hand potions, I believe. Mine is put together with an empty hand and a pistol.

Ooh, nice! Here's hoping this one also comes with those options.

It's a noble sacrifice should you join in, not to mention a public service: You need the minis and we need YOU to push this project along just a wee bit further.

This thing keeps getting better. Pussy Patrol definitely sets of some James Bond nostalgia.
Wouldn't be the first time someone used them as a weapon.

With current builds, no one does. You're fine with 6 squads of veterans... but will never have enough pewter babes.

I very much like Vivian Gale, and I'm looking forward to the Cowgirl too.
Honestly?
I have seen a BB I don't like yet...

Well, dislike is probably the wrong term, forgive me.
Not too interested in it compared to the others is more accurate. And the others are pretty damn nice.

Maybe a bit too early, but I bumped my pledge to $100 because I've got a feeling I'll be picking more lovelies sooner or later.

Granted, this is of course dependent on seeing some more WIP and the translation from art-to-model (although the cloud giantess gives a great deal of reassurance), but I'm begining to think I may need to go to Napalm ($150) level.
15 Babes, 2 more for a shirt, plus the Mechanic. We're looking at 12 right now if pledges reach $65,000, the only ones I am at all tempted to skip are the Maiden and Girl (ironically, the 2 with the least clothes...).
Tetsu Ko the Samurai at $50,000 has the potential to be amazing...

Don't forget that he has thrown in a bonus with every stretch goal. Custom resin bases, an ammo dump marker, extra minis like the squid.
I think by the end, the model count is going to be more like 25 for the top level.

Just pledged today. Vivian Gale and Tetsu Ko made me do it.
I suppose Pussy Patrol might make for an interesting Cultist-chan conversion.

As part of the PC crowd, I must say that I'm not offended, but disappointed. Disappointed that they went with such an obvious and straight-forward "single entendre" instead of putting in a little effort. We all knew there would be some sort of pun, but did it really have to be one they scribbled out during period 6 Social Studies?
I would have much preferred something like:
" Mounting Tension
After a hard day full of slamming action without release, Tension Plateau often relaxes by stroking her ...kitty, Rosebud."
Only wittier.
Seriously, I was hoping they would have a much higher caliber of crass. At this rate we'll end up with a smuggler babe named Hannah Lonely who comes with a fuzzy copilot, Chewboxxa. Or maybe we'll get an archaeologist named Virginia Maidenhead, who happens to be a cunning linguist.
What a missed opportunity.

I've had the opposite reaction, Bob- the nautical and samurai artwork look tasteful and pretty darn awesome. I can agree they're not all my cup of tea for what I'd anticipate actually putting down on a gaming table- but both of those are fantastic, imo.
