He was in Arkham Asylum.

yep but there is a small cutscene at the end where the scarecrows claw comes out of the water and grabs a case of titan

It seems as if there's more out there than we've been shown/know about ?

They come from the company's Facebook pages:

This was my exact thought. Also, painting these is going to be delightfully agonizing because the sculpts must be done justice. I will likely need to paint a couple of Harleys as gifts, too. Oh Knight Models, how you torment me!

This NEEDS a kickstarter.

Actually it looks like it doesn't, judging by the licenses Knight's Models has been able to afford.

Reaper didnt need a kickstarter and still did one, the result is a ton of new BONES being released at a much faster rate than before.

Please no, we don't need kickstart and there limited stuff. All kickstart dose for a company that can do with out them, is making stuff the no kickstart buyer can't get. I've passed on more then a few games becouse I could by the kickstart stuff and cut out the store that would sell the stuff. And, FLGS are the one that really need the money, now they don't get it becouse of kickstarts.

If it a new no money company, then go kickstart. Still if they want my money, don't limit stuff. Look how Judge Dreed did it, I can buy every thing from there kickstart, but then they really could of done it without a kickstart. I've already pick up some stuff for there game from my store, so both get money instead of just the company I never goto.

I'd be far more enthused for a Star Wars game using their fantastic Star Wars stuff, but I'll take this.

Didn't they lose the licence for that range? I'm sure they have stopped the Boba Fett bust I wanted.

From what i understand Knight Models chose not to renew the Star Wars license, there was a post about it on their Facebook page way back in July.

There have been several questions lately regarding the future of the our Star Wars line . After a lengthy evaluation, Knight Models has decided not to renew the Star Wars license with Lucasfilm. We’ve had a long and fantastic run, but with the economic downturn, we have made the tough decision to discontinue our Star Wars lines and extend the licenses we work with new products as the LOTR , DC
, BATMAN films, MARVEL and more .

The license has officially ends ,while I know the news is disappointing, we wanted to make this announcement as soon as possible and thank you for being such great fans. It’s been a fantastic ride with the Star Wars community and working with Lucasfilm and you never know when we may circle back again!.

I feel bad for anyone who had some of the star wars stuff on their 'to buy' list, only for the range to completely disappear overnight without even a warning that they weren't planning to renew the license.

I wanted so bad a Boba Fett 28mm scale, but the cancelation was so fast that I lost my chance. I got some other minis before though.

Kickstarter is a great way to Kickstart (see what i did there) a new range etc like this but it isnt a fix-all. If they have more talented sculptors than licensed IP then getting more money isnt going to help. But if they blew their wad on getting the IP then the kickstarter money would be perfect to pay talented sculptors to do their magic and means we can have pretty man-dollies that much quicker. It doesnt have to be a "Kickstart or this thing doesnt get off the ground" in my mind, it is sometimes a case of "Kickstart and this project will only take 4 months to get a full range of minis rather than 4 years of relying normal sales."

Given the choice between a normal production schedule of 2 years to get a Bat Faction, some GCPD, some Mooks and some Bad guy Solos...OR them having a kickstarter which let them have all of that, plus more in the same time frame I am all for it. Hell, double so if I can get something cheaper than normal or if there is something "limited" that I like the look of.



Going specifically with the Dredd KS,

Why doesn't Harlequin have a Harlequin costume? Disappointed!
It's like showing Batman in Jeans and T-Shirt.

Five pages in and you haven't twigged that this isn't based on Batman in general but Batman: Arkham City.

This is what Harley wears in AC:

Better?

Because everyone is stylised slightly differently.

Maybe I'm being a bit of a perv, but I prefer the costume she wore in Arkham Asylum.

Thus


is better, in my eyes at least, to the one H.B.M.C. posted. I really hope they do both versions, what a treat that would be!

Well as far as those costumes for Harley Quinn (and 75% of the villains for that matter within the setting) go in the game, from a story perspective Paul Dini wrote that she had no access to her original costume and thusly pieced one together from everything and anything she could find. (Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_rhuOnQ_TA , Skip to 5:00)

So with this in mind if they do alternate models I would really prefer them to give us the choice of any of her three costumes, especially since they had art in Arkham Asylum that showed us their spin on her classic look:

Hello

Thanks

All of these miniatures look great!

Will there be a US distributor announced soon?

Knight Models are carried by CMoN, perhaps this part of the Knight Models range will also be picked up by them?

Warpath is a US-distributor also carrying Knight Models, although they don't have a large warehouse.

Wonder if the Warstore will eventually carry the line?
