How many do I get for a kidney?

Those look great. I wish you used thinner board though. But otherwise it will be fantastic.

Looks pretty cool to me

Purerly out of interest, why thinner board?

Love them, however what's the cost looking like?

Just the look of it. The thicker board just looks a bit too chunky to me. I don't think half that but a couple millimeters thinner would look better to me. It almost looks out of scale with it that thick.

That sheet is 3mm thick, so pretty thin really. I'm cutting some samples tonight so hold judgement until they're in the flesh. Unfortunately laser-friendly MDF in less than 3mm seems to be impossible to find, you can get 2.5mm but it's a different type and you really notice the difference in the cut quality, not to mention the amount of fogging on the sheet surface.

Nice- and the configuration you suggest would make for some great firing positions. Looking forward to seeing these on your site!

Would definitely be interested in these!

Agreed, more great stuff from you WarMill....

Painted with a model for scale

Those look nice. Thanks for the pictures with the model comparison. How much do they run in US$?

So... what do you use to prime and paint your scenery?

The integrated ladders is a nice touch.

I want one

We should know after this weekend, the data is good to go we just need to calculate prices from it.

For the prototype stuff we just use 3 primer sprays from Halfords, a heavy black spray followed by successvely lighter coats of grey and white. The green one has a green final spray instead of white. The glamour stuff is abit more involved but is basically flat colours then lots of weathering powders.

Yeah we couldn't let those climbing plus models have all the fun Also give you a reason to have them stacked 4 or 5 high.

Okay, the ladders that actually fit a standard 25 mm base (so you can leave a mini stuck into it) are a really, really good idea. Nice work there.

Looking forward to picking some of these up if the pricepoint is right.

Do the crates have a fun name?

Maybe they are called 'fun crates' that would be a fun name

KOALA Crate - "Keyed Opening, Active Logistical Appliance" crate?

I was toying with iPUP - Intermodal Portable Utility Pod

Alternatively, SIR shipping crate (Stackable Intermodal Resource - Shipping Crate)

Haha, if it was SIR Pod, I can just imagine the company logo being a kneeling man being knighted

Do want! Any further update in price and quantity? Will we be looking at 4/5 per set or individuals?

We're thinking a double pack and a pack of 5, maybe a single pack but we can't really see anyone just wanting one. Price wise we're aiming for £17 for a 2-pack and £40 for a 5 pack. After a bit of a brainwave from Ed I've been tweaking the detail slightly so that there is a panel that takes a 14-up sticky label The 5 pack will have a sheet of our designs included but it's simple enough to draw up your own designs and print them at home .

Haha, love the Happy Corp label

Excellent idea making the panel compatible with sticky label technology

Brilliant idea to make it compatible with a standard sticky label for homemade creations. Much kudos to Warmill and an extra incentive to get these ahead of the competitors.

R.

Genius! . . . Pure Genius!

This will be a big seller when it launches - nicely done!

I know I'll be bundling them up with some roads when they're available...!
