You're telling me! I'm still waiting on pictures from the production version

For the love of Jeebus - Servitors. Basic, slack-jawed lookin', cyber-gothic styled, half-machine people with some variety. Industrial servitors, scribe servitors, weapon servitors, servitors with no legs hanging out of wall-mounted sockets, servitors with laudhailers for faces, bog-standard "carry your stuff/work with hand-tools" servitors. Just, some servitors please. A few of them being non-slooty female models would be great too.

Seconded.

I am most interested in this option. I have purchase Victoria stuff before and it's good quality.

Vic's now got something in her hands to show off at Adepticon and take C&C on, so if you're going to be there, make sure you drop by, talk to her, and perv over stuff.

And NO I won't tell you what it is yet, only that I did it.

Any news on the pickelhaube heads?

I've got no information. Vic's in the States, getting ready for Adepticon, so staying up til 2am isn't very attractive to shake answers out of her.

However!!!!, our friends at Reaper have been kind enough to provide her with an office space to work in, and a few ideas, so it's definitely a working holiday for her.

Hey, I've not started work on it yet, but how do you guys feel about an APC with a composite cast and rivet hull (a bit like the Matilda) instead of purely angles and rivets? Just, you know.. conceptually...

**ADG_Wraith**

As always, lovely work. If I was still into 40K I'd be all over this.

They'd have to have the same level of thinkiness as Jes' cold ones. Something like the Saurus cold ones or out of The Good Dinosaur won't cut it.

Might be a case of cause and effect.

Putting the entire quote there, as I don't like to be quoted out of context, especially not with a link to the original quote...

**Ketara**

Caption is 'Next Squad on the Way'.

**Vermis**

But those two bits were the most relevant parts of your post, and ironically connected. The context is that their rules are inevitably 'spank' because cavalry in the far future, even a 'drive me closer; I want to hit them with my sword', 'Santa Claws on his wolf sleigh', far future, is stupid.

Not in a 'no-one in the studio cares about their rules' way, but in a 'they're going to be severely outclassed by anything performing a similar role, and otherwise mauled' way.

(Tracked APC in progress)

Yay! Might we get a hint on what it might resemble, or is it still in concept-stage?

You might get a hint soon, as for the second part, well, Vic's in the States but part of it is printing/will be printing shortly.

Perfect! I will eagerly await said hint, you can never have enough armour in your battlegroup!

**faolan**

Yeah, you gotta have something to carry the troops into battle, or to spot for artillery, or to lob mortar shells at the heretics.

I am suddenly very excited.

**shasolenzabi**

Must keep watch on this APC development!

**faolan**

I was hoping to have a full, physical preview ready by Adepticon, but things exploded and I ended up with a metaphorical flat tyre for a few days!

Still, seeing what I can do. Hopefully V can at least have a poster or two by then.

**Mak_the_Knife**

Why, I do wonder what it could be...

**faolan**

Oooh oooh oooh, someone copy the Facebook post over! I suck that that!

**BrookM**

last night in Vegas at the GAMA trade show. Lots of fun, great to meet so many awesome people in the business
Here's the Sledgehammer lurking among the products on display at the Reaper Booth. Full styrene cannon, PVC crew.

From Facebook:

No time like the last minute right? Good news is, I just got Just got confirmation that a first cast run of Matilda Tanks will indeed be available at AdeptiCon. Bad news is, that I will only have around 10-15 each of the two variants. These are a special preview edition that will each come with all sponson and hull gun options, as well as bonus turret guns for the Assault and Battle variants. Each version will be selling for $79.99.
If you can't get to AdeptiCon, fear not. The next edition will be selling through the webstore as usual in the next month or so.
These gorgeous kits are cast by the talented guys at Trenchworx. I can't wait to get them into the hands of hobbyists

Also:

All I can say is ouch.

**Haighus**

Ooh yes! That looks great so far!

**faolan**

Disclaimer: Hands and ring not included.

**Mak_the_Knife**

That plasma cannon is sexy, but I may be biased.

I *need* one of those...

**Formerly Wu**

I'm secretly hoping that you'll sell out before I get there, because I don't need the temptation to spend even more at Adepticon... -_-

**BrookM**

And another preview:

**Padre**

So much win on just one table!!!

Will definitely have to get a Matilda...
