That's really wicked! The gap between the shoulderpads and body is a little off-putting but otherwise.. man Andrew is truly lucky! Congrats


I think it looks better with shoulder weapons mounted there, because then the empty space is filled.

Ok, ok, more modesty from now.

New release - Mercenary Heads. Which face is your favourite? Personally, I like two (that's not cheating, right?) - the shouting one and this one with a slightly mechanical, insectoid look.

So good!
I like them all but for different reasons. Upper left and Upper right are just begging to be goons for Batman to beat up. Upper mid is either Riddick waiting to happen or a cyborg hacker for a GiTS type story. Bottom right has my Killzone army written all over it or any of the previous things I mentioned honestly. Bottom left, spitting image of the SNES Shadowrun game's main character.

EDIT:
Aegis - You're right. The weapon systems being in place definitely makes a difference! The lines of the cockpit style head piece are less drastic too I think, making it seem like a smoother transition.

Oh man, I see it now.. And the one bald head in that suit of armor looks like Mr Freeze. All you need is a clear dome to put over the top. Who sells those (I know I've seen them). Wow, PW lol, I like these even more than I did originally.

Is that for the walker too? I would guess yes but I don't recall seeing it mentioned.
Nevermind.. the "Prime" thing gives it away.. figured it out

And yeah.. the price is perfect.. It fits right inside my budget, unlike another company's large walker
Now I just have to clear up that budget so I can get me one (or three) of these..

EDIT: Also.. these are 5.9" which.. yanno.. if you're looking for something grim and dark, this would stand in nicely. Just sayin..

£30 for a beast that size in resin is more than reasonable! Hell, you could kit it out with all the custom weapons you like and still come in cheaper than the competition!

Well dang, the walker with canopy looks great!



Weapons are pricey though, could you offer a pack of them? Right now you have to buy each individually:

http://puppetswar.com/category.php?id_category=269

It seems like the shoulder weapons are from their existing range. Could anyone point me to where they offer the smaller weapon types shown on the shoulders here?




There's also a better pic at the top of the current page of this thread. It seems like one set off weapons is being used to point up and one forward, and that there are options for each, but I don't know how I'd figure out what goes where.

The shoulder mounted weapons are setup for 3x1mm magnet holes. There are 3 mounting points on each shoulder (1 back, 1 side and 1 top). They should be able to utilize any of the Vehicle Weapons that have 3x1mm magnet holes for as well like the Nuclear Heater or Flame Cannon or Missile Launcher or AT Cannons.

Although you could probably use those weapons for the hand mounted weapons as well, the hand mounted weapons was setup with a 5x2mm magnet type hole. It would utilize any of the Epic weapons like Epic Prime Claw Left/Right, Epic Prime Blade, Epic Laser Cannon, Epic Flame Cannon, etc. All the weapons are found in the Mankind Vehicle Weapon section. A fully decked out Battlewalker with 4 shoulder mounted weapons, 2 hand mounted weapons runs about 75€ ($82.74)

That's just what I was looking for, thank you very much!

The only issue is they each come with 6 guns in a pack for 12 euros. If I'm looking to outfit one Prime walker with weapons, I'll have a bunch leftover.

What would be awesome would be a variety pack with 2 of each of these weapons for the top mounts... is there any chance of that Puppets War?? I'd place an order right now if there were (and would add a few arm weapons separately to my order, of course, since those are offered as singles)

Obvious solution is to buy 2 or 3 of these walkers

I do need to see which of the guns I already have though.. pretty sure I got a few when I bought an Enforcer.

Use the extra guns to create home-made turrets or for something else. They are also compatible with all their vehicles and turrets, so if you plan to ever get the APC or other vehicles they are still a good deal. The weapons are also sold in pairs 5€, the only reason I included links to the 6 quantity is because in my opinion it is the better bang for the buck. You can also by weapon cores for 7€, then by 6x weapon tips (just the tip ^_^) for 7€ which then lets you swap out the weapon pieces for a bit cheaper than by some of everything since all the pieces are designed to be magnetized.

AT Cannon Pair - 5€
Nuclear Weapons Pair - 5€

Ordered one with magnets (said like Rick James). Only ordered the hand mounted AT cannon for now. I'll be placing another order for more stuffs later on.

MLaw, did you order your magnets direct from Puppets War, too?

Thanks for all the help and links, Dark Severance! I'm only after one Prime so will probably order the weapon pairs

Yeah, I know I can probably get them cheaper on e-bay or whatever but I wanted to make sure I got the ones PW intends so there's no issues on fitting.

I ordered my magnets from Puppets War. The only reason was because 2 of them are standard sizes, one of them since they measure them in mm isn't exactly standard that I can get from my normal place I order magnets which is K&J Magnetics.

You mean you don't want to build a MechBay for the Prime to sit in, with a weapon rack on the side, weapon crates, armed with defense turrets? I mean who wouldn't want that... lol ^_^ There are always uses for extra weapons but I do understand, it was hard thing for me to determine. I haven't' figured if I want one or two and if I'm getting two then I would get the multiple weapons, but if I'm getting one then pairs... but I don't want to buy one and then determine I'll want another later. LOL!

Wait, what? "Little" walker? Does that imply there will be a big one eventually?

Heck, if it was half the size, the canopy version would be a great proxy for this.

It is pretty impressive.

I'm sooo, sooo sorry.
