I was just looking at the custom squad creator, and couldn't find some of the options. Specifically the "Marine Utility Heads HH10" don't seem to be available as a head option, and nor do the kneeling Greatcoat legs. I figured the legs were a numbers mismatch thing, but are the heads deliberately left out?

They were remastered and I forgot to add them back in. All fixed now, the kneeling legs as well.

I know I'm late on this, but... sweet! Glad these are going to still be available

Yeah, getting a few new parts up every few days now.

I think I may do a robot for the parts this year as well.

That would be .. "mad"

TRY somehow to call it a MAD robot, or somethin'

Are you eventually going to carry the infantry weapons Paulson used to stock or just the 54mm robots parts?

As for the robot.. I'd be happy for some legs that happen to fit Crisis Suits but are also not short and dumpy like the GW ones.. can't stand those.. and, if you make them slotted at the knee for easy posing all the better

But don't let this distract you, we need DaNam with a "$5 me love you long time" special offer!!! and a "Too Boku" offer too!!!

@porkuslime: Oh...it will be MAD...

@MLaw: Pretty much the whole catalog will be up there eventually..

*slowclap*

That's great news!

You must have missed these then

No I've actually seen those I just would love to have the drill instructors themselves lol but what meant was like full figures in different poses screaming at recruits like I went through haha good times

Steve thanks again for the insight!

I would like to see some personality heads pt2 as well.. this time with more hair!

Yes that would make a pretty good commissar stand in "What is your major malfunction, numbnuts? Didn't Mommy and Daddy show you enough attention when you were a child?" Are you quitting on me? Well, are you? Then quit, you slimy fething walrus-looking piece of gak! Get the feth off of my obstacle! Get the feth down off of my obstacle! NOW! MOVE IT! Or I'm going to rip your balls off, so you cannot contaminate the rest of the world! I will motivate you, Private Pyle, IF IT SHORT-DICKS EVERY CANNIBAL ON THE CONGO!"

I love that movie haha I have so much respect for R lee ermy because he did that whole boot camp phase solely on improve and what came to mind and from his personal experiences lol I agree personality pt 2 and more hair!we already maggots heads now we need the real marines to make the pukes into marines

I want part 2 of personalities, I've been pestering for a not-a-team group, his would be great

I am trying to get that done soon

Well I'm in no rush lol Id rather them come out very well and thought out as with all your other cast you have some very beautiful cast and I love the attention to detail you have much respect because I don't have the skills that you posses for the work you do so hats off you! Lookin forward to anything you are working on or releasing

@Mad Robot:

Do you have any plans to make Tau stuff? After doing some internet searching, there are a lot of conversions that put hands on Crisis suits, but they use pre-existing hands from other models (with 4 fingers, Tau only have 3 fingers)

Not to mention a desperate need for Human Auxiliaries for Tau armies.

If you need anything for Chaos, Space Marines or even 'Nids, there are plenty of options out there. Tau have only 2 3rd party bits for them.

Thanks.

Sorry I don't make Tau, that's GW territory.

My best recommendation is to see what we have available and maybe you can find something there that will suit your needs

Thanks!

Modern SciFi, Mechas and noseless Alien faces are NOT GW copyright, just saying.

The 54mm mecha line that he has is approximately the right size for crisis suits etc. The other stuff he is bringing from Paulson wouldn't look out of place on Tau infantry and their Auxiliaries. The classic thing that was in White Dwarf back in the day was just use a Fire Warrior torso on a Cadian set of legs and arms.. but you could literally do this with any of the Mad Robot stuff and slap some Tau bits on them.

As for the fingers thing.. Tau have 3 fingers.. but Crisis suits are robotic suits.. that extend. Humans have made robots with 2 fingers all the way up to 10 or whatever. Either way, fingers are usually just cut rod, and are not overly difficult.

I remember the good old days when people would actually convert stuff instead of relying on someone to make a kit for it. I can't say I haven't fallen into that myself but there is a point of ridiculousness.

As an FYI, there are already companies that produce alternate Tau heads.

Well, I know you don't make Tau, I was asking about something... similar to Tau. :-)

Just a thought and probably too late...the DaNamian helmets look...small.

Keep up the great work!

maybe its just the picture because they look fine to me, the vest look big but that's because of the picture idk I could be wrong.

I have seen them both ways.. helmets have sizes and if you see a helmet that's too large on a person, it's likely because they were reissued and all they had left were the gigantic ones.

No worries guys, I will make sure they look good

You must trust The Mad Robot

Render looks good. Perhaps the flak vests could be done with a mix of collars to keep all of the customers happy? (V1.0 and V1.1?)

Compared to another man-dollie (though in a less 28mm and less heroic proportions) I still think the vest is too high, reaching halways up his head, rather than just reaching the chin/back of the head.

Spoiler:

Nice bash of Joker!

Parts breakdown please?

These almost look like they are fallshirmjager helmets, Da'namian style.
