Okay.

Order her now, or try and pick her up at Salute..?

Well shipping is probably still more than the cost of the mini, so I'd try to pick her up.

If they're brave enough to attend that is.

I wonder if there will be a line of AvP backers there.

Another large demon chick. Note, this one is almost 2 inches taller than the Mamoona, so not sure how they'll look together. Maybe they're counting her sword as height? Interestingly, now I know what model the two swords they sent me belong to!
Spoiler:



So, looking at the description of the board game, they also say Mamoona is 11cm tall, and that's a flat out lie, so Belzeeba might be the same scale after all.

Edit: Although I guess if they measure to the top of her weapon instead of actual height she might be. But I don't have the weapon! ~

I like the human-sized models of that latest lot. The big demoness needs a better pair of horns - the current ones make her look like a doofus (technical term).

I haven't really been following since the initial posts and all of a sudden, people are wearing clothes and proper armor. Did Prodos redesign them based on feedback or something?

I also noticed that this is now being called "Space Crusaders" instead of "Space Crusade."

Space Crusade is the boxed game which contains Space Crusaders. And yes, they're making PG13 versions of their T&A models in order to appease the complainers.

Oddly enough, the PG13 ones look awesome.
This last lot I really like, I second that the one with the shield and the sideways firearm is stunning.
The frontal nudity in "not" terminator armor was melting my brain over the tenuous need for reality so I offer thanks.

Yes, I personally find the 'PG13' sculpts to be simply better balanced, I'm actually temped by some of them, though I must admit that the reports of missing and damaged parts above is somewhat worrying...

To be fair with the missing/damaged, out of I think 7 SKUs, only 1 had an issue and they sent weapons for demonA instead of demonB. It took 3 business days for a response, but they said they shipped replacements without questioning me. If they shipped the same speed as my order, they should get here today I think.

Shield and gun sister is excellent. Hopefully Prodos will be rewarded by people buying her, though I can't justify it myself.

Winged hero sort of has demon Lorgar head crown going on. Just do female primarchs already! Yellow Fist Lady and Angel Vampire would go over pretty well I think! Pretty sure if they did an Emperress' Kids primarch it has a chance of being less ridiculous than the official one :-)

I have heard rumors of companies that respond to 'feedback' and conduct 'market research' but I always discounted them as these things
are otiose in a niche.

I wouldn't call this armour anywhere near 'proper', but it's a step forward.

While you people were looking at Nightwing's bum, I was appreciating the art. Starfire got shot in the breast; That's hilarious


On topic tho': The game doesn't look terribly interesting. I can live without the models.
If GW made a campaign-style game where Sisters/Inquisition had to take down a Chaos cult- and do it with limited non-replaceable units to determine success or failure. That would be pretty cool.

Good morning dakkadakka.

Here we have some quick photos of 1 piece, Space Crusade board game miniatures, yes, 1 piece, no assembly required manufactured using a hybrid of plastic and resin (no it's not restic or PVC!).

I'll post a bit more about our new manufacturing process later, as I believe it's a game changer for the industry, especially in board game miniatures production/cost/quality departments (0_o sorry really excited engineer here!)

Actually... yes, yes it is. And the resin gun&shield sister looks much, much better than the renders.

On a technical level, it's very impressive - kudos. On a consumer level, I'd rather models didn't go back to the days of integral bases (no matter how nice) - if there was a way of designing the figures to have say a peg in the foot and a hole to match in the base without driving up unit production costs they would be even nicer.

I wish the really excited engineer could give some of his excitement to the CS/QA departments. Still no replacement arms. No response to my request for a tracking number. No response to my message about the possible scale differences between Mamoona and Belzeeba.

This manufacturing process is only cost effective for board game miniatures. Based from collected feedback, fully assembled miniatures are the only solution to have your product in toys stores.

Quite much, some retailers refuse to stock boardgames that have miniatures that require assembly and the assembly part if it is not a 1-2 pieces snap to fit gets a generally negative review from boardgamers.

Intriguing once piece cast tech, it will bring you some attention for contract work for sure, what is the material like? how flexible? can it be casted in different colours? clear material? clear tinted material?

Same here. Even if they weren't one-piece I was still blown away by the cast quality. I am really digging the not-chaos terminator chic and the shield bearing shooter.
