I'll be picking him up as soon as we get a Zantanna model I'm sure.

Like wise.

Also since I havent seen this posted, and its a few days old.




New Two-Face gang, featuring a Flamethrower!

Yeah, put me down for a Constantine. Fantastic model, they've nailed the pose, despite being quite simple, it really emanates attitude and charisma. Might ditch the glowy skull and just leave the lighter, I tend to prefer Constantine stuff where his magic is a little more subtle than flying skulls and fireballs (though he does do more of that stuff with the JLD, so I can see why it's there if they're building to that). Looking forward to seeing Zatanna, her and John might well be the first BMG models I buy in quite some time.

That looks awesome...but delicate at the smoke connection.

Going by the fact Constantine is resin now, is it safe to assume the whole mini line is moving to resin, that would really help in terms of modelling as multi part metals are just dire to work with.

Do weknow who Constantine will fight for?

He’s pretty much guaranteed to be free agent for Brave and the Bold, the real question is how Swamp Thing will fit in. My guess is we’ll either be seeing a new Swampy soon (he’s in the legends range now) with affinity Constantine, or a team list for Justice League Dark with them on it

I have been playing 2nd edition and had something come up, hopefully someone on here can help. Classic Deadshot, his barret has scope. The wording on scope is very similiar to night vision with the addition of losing ping.

Does scope negate night? basically can Deadshot shoot across the board without having a light source as long as there is no terrain in his way?

From the copmendium:

"While performing a ranged attack with this
weapon, the firer can see at any distance, limited
only by their line of sight. Targets of this weapon
cannot benefit from Ping! rolls against it."

So basiclaly, yes.

Do like these new sculpts but man the company and its lap dogs suck the fun out the game

They do?

How so?

I'm having trouble seeing how they could do this to your games, with your gaming group and/or in your FLGS.

We need more here!

I generally don't venture on Facebook, but apparently its the place to go to be abused by companies various companies.

In other news, Zantanna's up, so.... I need to get some JL Dark figures soon.

Also, where's Nightwing rules for DCU? I'd love to paint up some Titans but apparently Nightwing doesn't get to be a thing. :(

Zatanna:


Nice model that, I shall be picking up her and John very soon I think.

Because this hobby extends off the table. We like to get axcited about games, models, rules, and we've discussed how KM and its fans and admins behave on FB (and to a lesser extent here) which, like it or not, is a major part of today's hobby.

I agree with him/her to a certain extent. KM have acted as if their customers are an afterthought more than once, and there's a certain part of that customer base who will defend them for it.

Zatanna is OK. Like the character idea, just not the "old fashion" costume. Too much to hope for the animated JLD version?

Still not seeing that - or how that would really disrupt your gaming experience - but I'll take your word for it as I'm not that deeply into the KM brand to have run across it personally.

Mate, you're on a gaming forum. You know, away from the table. Not to mention the toxicity of the KM Facebook groups has been discussed more than once and you yourself have had to step in.

I'll say no more, but we all want to enjoy our hobby away from the table as well as at it. That's why we post here.

I...know?

If you've further axes to grind, please take it to PM - thanks!

No axes, just stating the pervasive nature of our hobby.

The only two local gamers that I know who played both stopped after being removed from the official group, one for criticising a rule change in a different Facebook group and the other for complaining about a poor miscast after failing to get a response from the customer service email account for a month. Both were kicked without an official explanation and any attempt to contact the Facebook mods or Knight Models was ignored.

I still buy the occasional figure but just to paint now rather than play due to lack of interest. On that basis I will definitely be picking up both those JL Dark members (and Dr Fate) and will hopefully see some more of the occult DC characters soon. I’m also keen to see what the Resin models are like as have had some poor experience with miacasts and assembly issues with the metal models.

I'm loving Zatanna, pretty much exactly what I was wanting. - Though I would have preferred the wand rather than a skull in her hand.

And Constantine is great too.

I'll definitely be getting them both.

Batman started out very strong in my LGS but then the distribution to the US sucked and my LGS had a period of time where their vendor could not get any knight models stuff. The flames fizzled out very quickly and was abandoned at my LGS. I kept collecting because I love the game and play it with my step son.

In reference to bad sculpts. I have one of Shiva's agents who is missing half a leg that I wrote KM customer service about two weeks ago and still no response. Then i got the newest harley thugs that i ordered from online and it came with two of the one thug with no weapons and the weapon for the thug without the thug so a total mispack so i emailed them about that earlier this week with no response.

I have only had one issue prior which took them about 2 months or so to address. Not sure if it is the English translation or just their lack of customer service to be honest. The models used to come with like a complaint number or paper in the package and they stopped doing that which I did notice that there was less issues in quality but now I am starting to see it all over again.

It really sucks because I love the game and I hope that the new resin models fix the quality issues they have had in the past.

My one experience was fine. Nightwing was in my Arsenal pack and they just sent me a new model to replace it.

Really liking the 'Old School' Zatana.

The new resin models I've seen so far have been miscast free and pretty sharp on details. Very flat, two dimensional sculpts though. New models from them tend to be pretty good though, it's when the mold has aged a bit and they don't care for it enough or replace it and some particular miscast on a model becomes common place. The resin worries me on that account because resin molds tend to more easily/quickly wear out, so it's less the models we're seeing now, and more what they look like several months from now that I'm worried/curious about.

Also voicing that concern is what got me banned from the ACL Facebook, which matters in overall gaming because ACL is empowered to make official rules interpretations, which I now don't have access to.

The ACL is laughably bad. One of the worst groups on facebook. They do more to drive people away from the game than bring them in. KM assume cos its batman people will play but the games not all that popular and the goons in acl do more harm than good

I wondered if I'd been banned from ACL so I logged on to check (I haven't) and what's the first thread on the page?

"I may be speaking out of turn. But why is it that as soon as some one says something bad about knight models new stuff. Someone gives a rant about we got what we asked for and the feed is locked by admins or deleted? I can see it for certain ones but others dont have hundreds of messages going back and forth."

I want to like BMG, but jesus h, it's just made so hard from so many different angles.

More spooky goodness. It's a video so I don't know how to copy it, but... Gone, Gone the Form of Man...
