And they actually work on more than one thing at a time. What a concept.

If they made plastics I'd buy everything from them forever.



I don't know how many people play Evil Cannibal South Seas Hobbits but those that do must be dancing the happy dance now.



Someone's been playing Queen's Blade!



Now I can finally play house with my Orcs! "Snotgrot! You cut that out this minute or so help me there will be hell to pay when your father comes home!"



Dark Elf Glaive Thrower, except that isn't a glaive, a glaive is a pole arm, that's a shuriken. That way the heroes are in cover waiting for someone to throw a pole arm at them but all of the sudden they all get killed because tehy weren't expecting shurikens. This is why you can't trust Dark Elfs, they're sneaky and they lie to you.



The caption says they're women of the night. I don't know that character class because I don't play girl characters but I think it's like a thief-acrobat or maybe a ninja.



I like how these 2 models tell a little story. Iris and Frank are hanging up one-way signs in Atlantis and then the Sea Creature of Blood Reef comes by and tells them that the zoning commission has not approved the new traffic patterns so they have to stop.



Did you ever really really want to set someone on fire but you just didn't have the energy to get up and walk across the room? Well then the X-32 Toastmaster is just what you've been waiting for!



Andre Durand - Not a Rogue Trader and Not created just for your 40k RPGs.

What I like best is how he has a flintlock musket on his hip, in case the high-tech supergun doesn't work.



Ebony Foxx. I need her. I think I have my new Marbo.



Finally Reaper has made a Ninja of the Ghost Dragon Clan, thank goodness! Now I don't have to keep using my Shadow Tiger Clan ninjas to 'count as' Ghost Dragon clan ninjas.



I have no idea what Pathfinder is but I giggle each time they call one of their characters an 'Iconic' anything. Oh he's an ICONIC Ghost Dragon Clan Ninja you say, not just a cliched one!



Apparently the magic system required exposed cleavage and bare legs to feel the mystical emitions properly.



But not for this guy thank goodness.



What's this? A woman? Fully dressed with armor that acutally protects her? How can this be?



Y'know, I don't know why but I know I need her. Maybe I'll take her out to sing when I've tabled an opponent.

Anyway that's it for Reaper this month, there's lots more on their site and painted pics of most of these so enjoy!

I hate the gun, but the rest of the model is ace, especially the sleeker power glove, it reminds me of that douche inquisitor from Emperor's Mercy.

I want the guy with the flamethrower. And an entire line of models like him, but with various armaments.

Do you hear me Reaper? Make it happen!

Indeed!

Heh looks like a cool way to get an interesting wizard of sorts with that


man I really need to buy some reaper now

The models are pretty consistently Reaper-ish, but their photography seems to have taken a turn for the worst.

GW shows off figures when they're about to release them as well...

I like the dive team and monster set. I continue to wish that reaper would design figures for a level of customizability.

Do want the Tiki guys.

Scale?

same as GW

Also, can someone explain to me the Dark Elf mummy wraps?

So, speaking of scale and alternate miniature companies:

Does anyone know of anything that would make a good Rogue Trader model (as in a model of a Rogue Trader) besides the one above?

Actually that meaning of glaive was created fairly recently (I believe by the movie you mentioned), and confused the hell out of me when I first played Warcraft III. The word's initial meaning was a polearm. Interestingly enough, the original french word glaive now commonly means gladius, but I'm just rambling aren't I?

They need a Super-Scientist miniature, in a speed-suit. And perhaps his body-guard.

I see no glaive
where is the glaive?
Ah found it! in his hand.

Q: Can he have brownie points for saying, "if the glaive fits wear it"?

A: Shurikan!

If you see the artwork for the female half-orc inquisitor, you see that her armor still manages to show cleavage.

Love the cannibals, the divers, the flamer guy and the pathfinder.

OH. MY. GOD. These are the models I've been waiting my whole life for! I'm so excited by these miniatures that I can't type properly. Holy gak!

I need fifty.

I've got two right now, with the Reaper guy in the mail as number three. For my first Rogue Trader I use the Lord Commissar model to represent one with a strong military background that he is unwilling to relinquish. The other is represented by a PP Arcane Tempest Gun Mage Captain with a laspistol and chainsword swap to make the model fit in more with the rest.

My two cents.

I love reaper minis. I need to figure out a way to use that egyptian-themed woman as my necron lord to enrage the "space marines can't be gurls" crowd.

WHERE IS YOUR C'TAN NOW?

I prefer "If the glaive does not it, you must acquit".

Wearing a very revealing Egyptian-themed top? Could make a great Deceiver.

They're called "Pharons" and Ral Partha already did them.

You know, there are a lot of things I want from this lot - pygmies, monster from the off-black lagoon, fat lady singing. Way to be Reaper!

Reaper just seems like GW 20 years ago. If reaper had a warhammer game old GW minis would fit right in.

I wish they could up their game just a bit. Seriously why havent they made anything as awsome as some of the independant resin casters out there?

They do have a game. Warlord I've seen it demo'ed, but didn't care for it.

Not an entire line, but here are a couple.




And they have a couple of versions of this guy. not sure why they aren't consistent on their sci-fi armors.

these models are sweeeeeeeet. how do they compare in size to old GW minis? I'm building a rogue trader era imperial army and i could do with some random mercenaries and militia

They are true 25mm generally, so smaller than GW.

I use Reaper models side by side with GW. Some are slightly larger, but not terribly so. Perhaps a little closer to PP sizes though.

Um, you realize the first two are just Gears of War characters with the serial numbers filed off, right?

Never played Gears of War, so no. Didn't know that.

We use these in our Mechwarrior/Battle Tech campaign.

And Starship Troopers ripped off Imperial Guard/Tyranids, too. Right?
