Ok, on that picture. What is her collar attached to such that it rotates with her head to keep her chin in the middle? It looks like it is part of a larger gorget, which would make sense if you want to keep stuff from getting to your neck, but that cut in front of her face makes me wonder...


ooops, they are going to have to redo it now. Wave 7!

Damn it man, don't give them any more ideas!

It could make a bit of sense if the idea is that she can raise and lower the welding mask, but only lowers it when she's under fire and hence shooting back.

However, it has another problem: clipping. You can see that the gorget and the welding mask overlap one another, which means that when you try to put that head on, it's not going to fit.

It also makes for a fun shot trap.

So you think the collar is part of the helmet, so when she turns her head it goes with it?

I hadn't even noticed the clipping thing... man you'd think the sculpting program would throw up a red flag when that happens.

No, I think the collar could be part of the jacket, with enough clearance for her head but not the head + faceplate.

Oooooh I see what you mean, that the mask only comes down when she is looking at ~10 o clock, ie. when she is shooting.

( I was referring earlier to how the collar works. I totally agree with the fact the mask head doesn't seem to fit in there right.)

Product spotted on faccebook (have we seen this before in an update?)

We have not seen that before. Fascinating.

New content from RH? Another month until the pledge manager then. I mean, it'll take that long to package up all those figures with bases.

They're going to take a picture of someone with all those bases first.

80% of a base

Well, there's some interesting chatter on the FB comments for that last image:

Asharah Raging There is a good chance that Zab will be made

Asharah Raging Marc Stephens and James Leeves: Stay tuned! We're finalising the images for the WereSheWolves today! Hoping to post tonight if all goes well

Well that certainly wets my whistle. Damn workblocks on things I'm interested in.

Another one:

Asharah Raging Veronika Pilátová: Good news: Svetlana will also be shown in this Update

So, tonight?

Zab?

Also motherfething WERESHEWOLVES

I'm going to go eat a raw steak in anticipation

Zab was the $720k uber stretch that they added near the end:



Though that begs the question as to whether Freya Pain-Sec ($710k uber stretch) will also be done and whether or not they'll still be free.



As for the update, if it is tonight, it'll more likely be closer to tomorrow morning UK time,

Right, normal conventions of time do not apply to them.

That would be pretty hot to get more freebies

They are cool looking concepts of course. Be great to see them in sculpture form.

Maybe they'll be included with wave 7 or 8?

Possibly in time to be a wedding present for my 4 month old daughter! She will be so happy!

Asharah Raging Update coming in about an hour now.

It's getting closer.

Do you think there will be an issue if I don't bother pledge managing my gak for 8 months or so? I can't fething be bothered, but I might when I have time over the Christmas holidays.

Just to prove everyone I'm not always shamefully negative:

Congrats, mate! Kiss your gaming time goodbye.

Damn, couldn't help myself. I'm happy for you, though. Just don't name her after a RH character, please.

You could send them an email saying it's 80% complete.

Then when they send you a reminder tell them you had to start over from scratch because it didn't meet your stringent expectations.

Thanks man Turns out my PhD program is eating all my gaming time, so poor Olivia really only eats into my research time. But wow... she does do that! She is a lot of fun though, and I can't wait to build some home brew rules for Aquanaughts or whatever will be popular toys when she is a kid

(A kid as opposed to the mewling larval stage she is just now leaving)

A friend of mine actually got his 7 years old girl into DBA. He made those little coloured sticks, and uses it to get her to practice quick mental math. She loves her "barbarians."

Without even knowing how close she is to using that word correctly, mind you.

You chose a great name, by the way. Very distinguished.

Wow that was.. some update!

I know that most of the images were renders rather than photos of the 3D masters but damn! I was pretty sure which minis I was going to opt for in the pledge manager but now a lot of the models I had discounted before look much better than I thought they would. Guess I'm going to have to throw some more money at this..

Update 86 is up ! (These people never sleep )

The more renders they show, the less I know what I'm going to get when the pledge manager comes. Everything is... delicious.

Oh, and Wereshewolves renders are in the update - should make some folks here happy. ^^
