Oops, did someone forget to maintain a trademark?

New game coming from Prodos.

http://shop.prodosgames.com/en/space-crusaders/248-space-crusade-board-game.html

Looking at the models I uh... offer no further comment.

Oh those crazy Prodos guys!

This looks.. interesting. Space Crusade: The quest for the last armour piece!

Prodos is usually on point with their models but this, this I can't handle.

Pre-ordered!

Space Crusade: Space Babes vs Obesity

Those models are indeed.. quite something?

Did they look at what GW was missing and decided to go all out on that?

Prodos is a red flag company, they still have a huge amount of unfulfilled kick starter pledges that they can't afford to produce and post. If for some crazy reason you need boob marines do not pre-order this just wait for retail. Of course they might get their asses sued off before it gets to retail.

The bikes and Mama Nurgle look cool though

I’ve seen some bad cheesecake armor designs, but ... Wow. The not-terminators totally lacking in torso armor are particularly bad. I can understand a little cleavage window, or a power-corset for “artistic” reasons. At least the gal strapped into the front of the walker thing isn’t even pretending to be armored. And I can sort of see an excuse for the bikes/winged ones as light recon troops.

But hammer/shield heavy shock troops with every vital spot exposed?

Still waiting on my AVP Kickstarter which PRODOS put to retail nearly a year ago, a year after they said it would be forefilled. Multiple lies on delivery dates, multiple promises failingto deliver. Not to mention what is being sent out to backers is not what you paid for and many models are still missing from peoples pledges, the lucky ones who've actually recieved anything. PRODOS have stated that any addional income is being used to forefill the AVP Kickstarter.

It will be a while before PRODOS get any more of my money, pre-order at your own peril.

As for the models, either have them armoured, or scantily clad. Can't have both, it doesn't work.

Well the way I see it, it's a choice on a per-product basis, not some strict company wide policy. Just like Hasslefree.. sometimes there is a realistically attired female zombie hunter and sometimes it's a naked incubus with his wang on display.

Fortunately there is no governing body that says "Your miniatures must conform!" otherwise I wouldn't have a model for my WFRP character

I'm not opposed to cheesecake minis (although I prefer stylish underdressed women as a term)

but those miss the mark being neither sexy, practical or even powerful

(I quite like the big 'she demon' though)

Yeah... no.

If it wasn't Prodos, it wasn't resin, and the opposing force were the demon girls and not what appears to be a bunch of nurglings I'd be tempted, but no.

Awesome - that ... Nurgle Daemon is as big as the FW GUO!

I like cheesecake as well as more "realistic" models, both have their appeal. But these for some reason have neither. Seems derivative, lazy and boring. Nopes.

Explore and expand more into AVP please!

Now if they had just made them "power armoured " with stylised french flowers on them these would of been their fastest selling line .....

But yeah wont be getting any of my money untill they even start to deliver the stuff i paid for 2yrs ago .

The sculpts look a'ight to me, but not a fan of cheesecake really.. I think it's just been overdone at this point. But.. I think I would have rather seen their space marinettes look more like not-sisters of battle

Those are just plain awful.

Well, my wife did want some female not-White-Scars for a counts as army... I guess these could work if sold separately.

Over-all though... meh.

The second pic is eye rolling bad. They could have done something so much cooler if they were going to do a rip off, instead you get laughably objectifying miniatures.

It seems that even if the Prodos name wasn't attached, this would still be drawing a lot of flak.

I quite like the Nurglish beastie, but the rest is not to my tastes.

Good grief. They're crap and make no mistake.

That last one, when the jetpack fires, that Mk XVI armoured thong will get burnt right off and she'll get a singed bum!

Some of the demon ladies in the link look alright, but the power bikinied humans just look odd. I think the sculptor put too much emphasis on breasts, and not enough on proper proportions. The mech thing (while silly) actually looks pretty decent though.

Edit: never mind, couldn't read the really small print below the pictures!

The bikes are cool so is the greater deamon,

I have to admit I like the dread but the boobinators are terrible.


I might buy some anyway.

This is reminding me of this

These would make a passable Seekers counts as or doomriders groupies

(NSFW)

Box contains
3x resin model
3x base

Hey, at least the motorbike sculpts themselves look very nice.

These are the worst sculpts that I have seen from Prodos, well below their usual quality line. I am less than impressed by the aesthetic as well.

The deamon is cool though so its not all bad.

Agreed, I'd just hate to give them money for the bikes alone since it would encourage more of this sexist crap.
