Mortar tank is nice. Tracks are a bit odd but not totally out of place for the range.

it's the quiet ones you have to look out for. Their the ones that change the world, the loud ones just take the credit for it. |

The tracks are the same as those on the Titania / Event Exclusive variants:
Designed for hazardous environments and first deployed en masse in Antarctica during the Battle for Earth, the tracked variant of the Bear APC - commonly nicknamed the Polar Bear by infantry - has become a reliable chassis, even dragging a trailer for use by commanders.

Those are the same treads as on the recent limited edition alt-Kodiak, and they have the same problem. The big flat empty space between the cogs. It looked like they ran out of time on the other version and just didn't finish, so to see them reuse it with no improvement is pretty disappointing. Rest of the model looks good, which is a shame.

I guess they're on an artillery kick. Scourge mortar-y looking grav tank
Again though, put the good metal/resin warriors next to it, not those plastic disappointments.

Yeah, the barrel is oddly reminiscent of the 1953 film adaptation. I'm pretty sure the ships (not tripods in that film, it wasn't a good adaptation) had triangular barrels like that.

The alt-scourge thing doesn't make a lot of sense. It flips its engine over to become a gun, instead of just rotating to face backwards?

At one stage they were up there with Infinity in having utterly top rate painting for all their promotional material.

So is this like a Flowers for Algernon thing, where they can no longer paint with skill yet retain the knowledge of what it was like to be respected? Why do I suddenly feel sad for them?

Before you consider forwarding that call to any friends, I encourage you to look back at the Secret Weapon guys emails from his time working remote for Louis Simpson. Dude was a micromanaging donkey-cave that was squirrely about paying out money.
Also, kinda thought these latest models looked pretty good actually, like the bad paint times were past. I swear a big part of it was the idiotic decision to just blunder forward with what looked like a gakky spray primer coat on a dozen different models.

The gun and the dorky goggles (minus the hilarious Groucho nose) are straight from the book art. Nice.

Tacticool is a finely balanced art form. If you want more waist pouches, you need to add a tactical rock first.

I can't tell if he's wearing a skin tight beanie, or it's a helmet, or if the model just doesn't have hair added yet.

I'm not typically a fan of tactical rock leaning/leaping mini poses (for stability and model safety reasons) but I have to admit that one is at least well done.

The space ship I get - the other one I still don't really know what I'm looking at. I think its just a really bad angle for the render or its the kind of machine that needs a 360 view and/or colour to really understand what's going where.
I can see the shape of a hover base and then a turret with a raised artillery beam weapon but it all looks "messy"
My only issue with the space ship is the same as Scorn - that's a beauty of a ship until you come to assemble it and discover ALL THOSE DETAILS on the mould line join.
