Replace the legs with mechandrites and call it an Admech transport of some type.

Stick a motor and a camera in it, head to the local department store changing rooms and create a new Japanese game show.

Lol, that is exactly the sort of thing I'd expect from a Japanese game show ;D

In America you'd get sued, in EU it'd be called inappropriate and in Japan they'd broadcast it on national TV for everyone to laugh at!

Tomb Stalker maybe?

Tyranid transport truck?

It's also going to fit the AoS Aelves with Alariel on her war beetle

Add a couple big eyes, and you might as well be doing Nausicaa...

Already covered

Neat! Though at 2" tall, it'd fit in the palm of my hand.

There is the 1/20 scale model kit

Mechanicum roller?

Does anyone have any further details about those phantasy star online mecha? I've only been able to find pictures of it here and one on some mecha blog

Do you mean this one?

or this one?

The ones on the other page are not for sale yet

He's referring to the AIS mechs from PSO2, not the CASTs. The AIS have no set release date, yet.

Excuse me if these have been mentioned. I was in the comic store and picked up one for $15

The mecha is something like maybe 5" tall and I think the front opens if you want to do some kind of scenario to get a pilot to it. I haven't unboxed mine and haven't unpacked my measuring tape so the size is a guestimate.

Huh...oddly the chibi-esque nature of the robot doesn't make it look ridiculous. Nice grab.

Any further pictures of this next to other stuff?

I can do a scale shot when we're further along with unpacking. I really have to focus on that as I am behind on my client work and one of the rulebooks I'm doing art on is supposed to be ready by mid-April.. Still have a few rooms to go.
I'll try to get it next to some GW, Reaper, Infinity, etc.. assuming I've found those things by that time.

What specifically are you looking for pictures of?

Here's a quick shot.. these are the only miniatures I have on hand as the others are still not unpacked.
I also didn't mention I have a different one (there are a few in the lineup).

Some retro fun.

Classic 50s models reissued as a set. I know the moon ship is already reissued (gotta get one for my space port project) but I haven't seen the rest.

The moon ship and the space station are must haves for me. It brings me back to all the hard(ish) sci fi I read in high school.

I know I can use all of them!

Gotta love the United States Space Service (USSS) stickers on everything.

I built that space station as a kid! Good times.

Two new Iron Blooded Orphan kits have been announced, for those interested.

Gundam Astaroth Rinascimento



Gundam Dantalion



Dantalion has a backpack that unfolds into a pair of giant arms. Neat.

We also have official pics of Bandai's Panzer World Galient models.

TV style


OVA style


Talk about annoying though. Aside from the Xabungle itself, all of the Super Mini-pla kits have been almost impossible to order. Neither Ami Ami nor HLJ have them in stock. No Walker Gallier, No Gao-Gai-Gar, no Megazord, and no Ideon. To make matters worse, as far as I can tell, preorders for Galient went up today and they're already closed. Dammit! And, to add insult to injury, both Promaxis kits are online only purchases, so they're not available anywhere outside of Japan. Double dammit!!

Here's the two Promaxis kits, for those interested.

Always been a big fan of centaur mechs. Those ones look idea for a oil gunk wash directly onto the plastic and then some detail painting and then a good coat of varnish followed by some dullcote.

That centaur body + wraithknight kit = the old Eldar Bright Stallion!

How have you not convinced our other brother to make an account for the online shop yet? Or better yet, how do you not have on and just ship it to him?

I'll be hunting for a Promaxis and Galient this summer. Too many nostalgia feels from those kits.

Who says I didn't already ask him? You won't be able to look for any Promaxis kits though. They're web only releases. Plus, they come out in September and the preorder period is likely to end before you go. Galient comes out in July though, so you may be able to find him.
