**Guildsman**

How well do you think those rifles will fit with Infinity figures? The design looks perfect, just worried about the size.

**TheSovereign**

Sorry if this has been asked before, but how well do the MaxMini fur cloaks fit with space marine torsos? Does anyone have experience with this?

**Przemas**

@Guildsman: tough to tell as I don't have any Inifnity models. But I can measure the gun - hopefully it'll help a tad

.

@TheSovereign: I'm having issues with my google-fu today , but you may try looking at this post at B&C.

Quick update on a next set of jump packs

.

My apologies for pic quality - ATM I'm working hard to get new casting stations running so finding time for proper wip pics is difficult. I promise to make good ones for the webstore when those will be out

.

**wspatterson**

Hm. Interesting additions to that jump pack. I may have to get some.
I'll admit, though, that I kind of liked that jump pack before all of the additional detail.

**tinfoil**

Wow, I'm loving the new jump pack!

**SickSix**

The new JP is niiice!

**wolfshadow**

Like the jump pack. You guys, Kromlech and Zinge are putting out such AWSOME stuff.

**Clang**

+1 for the new jump packs. They'd also look good on Stormboyz.

**Praxiss**

Those new jumppacks look awesome! nice work!

**wyomingfox**

It would be nice to see a scale shot of the JP

**Obsidian Raven**

Wow the new jumpack is awesome. Definately going to snag myself some

**wspatterson**

Is there an estimated release date for the jump pack?

**Przemas**

I hope to have it ready next week - I'm waiting only for a paintjob to get done

.

And here's next piece we're working on - goblin pirates heads:

**MeanGreenStompa**

There now exists a goblin head with a fez.

Sir,
If I were a woman, I'd bear your children.

Now you need another 3 sprues to go with those. The only terrible thing about the great work from yourselves and kromlech and others, is that there is not enough to completely or nearly completely individualise a unit.

*snicker*

Ahem.... anyway... as always, love the new additions MM.

**Azazelx**

The new Jump Packs are fantastic. I'll definatly be ordering some once they're released, along with some of them gobbo heads. Got my latest order a couple of days ago. Seems customs like to check out boxes of resin arriving from Europe...

Once I get my ^%#$&^ coursework done, I'll get some more product reviews up on my blog, along with the Scibor and Bitsudlo stuff I'm way behind on.

**insaniak**

Ooh, those are superb. Love the fez.

**Przemas**

I've just added new weapon set to the webstore - Tesla Cannon:

**SickSix**

That looks really cool but I am just not sure how it would phyically fit with your typical 'heroic' sci-fi soldiers. Basically I am not sure how you would actually model a 28mm heroic super soldier holding that thing.

**The_Stormrider**

Perhaps it's a "not-psycannon"?

**Death By Monkeys**

The_Stormrider wrote:Perhaps it's a "not-psycannon"?

That was my initial thought, yeah.

**ruyn**

The_Stormrider wrote:Perhaps it's a "not-psycannon"?

Really? I thought it was a "not-conversion beamer" in the old-school hand-held style from Space Crusade. Though I suppose most of today's gamers are too young to remember that one.
Here's a pic of the old sprue. The c-beamer is on the bottom left.

**Gavin Thorne**

Yeah, my first thought was "I've spent the last two weeks converting my Master of the Forge and his conversion beamer and now someone makes one that looks better than mine when I have the cash to buy it."

Looks pretty sweet!

**Ouze**

Easy, imo. Just take your space marine and on the left hand side, find a straight arm (either pointing or holding a sword). Cut off the hand, and then get a "normal" open hand from a left bolter arm. Glue it so the fingers are pointing down, so it looks like it's holding the top grip. Fill the gap in the armpit with greenstuff (or just hide it with the shoulderpad, you lazy bastards).

Add a power cable from Zinge and call it a day!

**candy.man**

I really like the Tesla cannon. I might pick up a few of these for a project I am planning.

That being said, it looks like a pain in the arse to model a mini to hold the damn thing so I might look around for alternatives first.

**Pipboy101**

Why do I see that telsa cannon as a good sonic blaster for CSM.

**-Loki-**

Maxmini need to hurry and and release their not-mycetic spore. That thing is fantastic.

**Clang**

Love the tesla cannon, but yeah, hard to tell how big it is or how easily it will fit e.g. a GW marine. (Or e.g. a Necron? - hmm, there'd be a cool alternate look for an army)

**BrotherKarr**

I'm in love with the tesla cannon. Combined with the fact your selling them 5 to a pack.... wow! Once again I need to place an order with Maxmini for some things. Great job on the new jump packs. They look killer.

**Przemas**
