There are several plastic kits for giant (or otherwise fantastic) wolves on the market, but weirdly none for just normal, natural ones. Since they are probably the most common 'enemy' (normal) animal in RPGs and appear in large(ish) groups, I think they would suit a plastic kit best.
There's also something to be said for not-giant rats. Even more useful for base decoration and dioramas, and can be used to construct rat swarms for RPGs and wargames. Or become giant rats in smaller scales, of course.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816685.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816685.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816687.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816687.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas

But I also suggested making some kits to flesh out making character / hero options for existing ranges. The command sprues for the late Romans are great, and it's be nice to see that kinda thing for the ancient Greeks as well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816730.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816730.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas It’s a main want for me in plastic as there isn’t a huge selection on the market yet. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816732.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816732.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816743.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816743.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas

Not sure they can compete with the originals since they're pre-assembled and prebased for only a couple bucks for a whole platoon! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816827.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11816827.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas

I hate to say it but Victrix is too slow for that in my opinion. WGA's problem is that their attention is all over the place, but when they focus, the turn out kits at lightning speed.

IDK - there was a wait longer than I expected for them, but Victrix pooped out the majority of the Late Roman range really quickly - it was only the Cataphracts that came out late, and as a (very pleasant) surprise.

And we're still waiting on WGA Squamata legionaries, despite them having been announced first.

I honestly considered putting down Etruscans, but I feel like they are gonna be re-doing some of their republic era kits anyway.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817093.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817093.page GMT Re:Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas
I'd love to see Lord of the rings style conversion packs in the same style as the knight pack. Horse lord conversion packs with horse shields and helms/heads. 'Generic' hill tribes and evil eye shield and helm packs. Men of the North/South Shield/helm/banner packs. Southerner conversion packs that go with their war elephant sets (god this could kill my wallet!)

These could all fit existing kits (Though I'd expect some would take slight chopping and changing) or being forced on to 'specific' sets to sell them same as the knight kit.

I own lot of the MESBG range, but I'm always adding to it from historical ranges, I love the films and books and want to collect as much as I can from both! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817098.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817098.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas

I am still hoping for Assyrians/Hittites/ Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age period. My Hittites and Egyptians are currently 6mm from Baccus.

If more medieval, proper good Andalusians would be cool - they had bits for that in the Norman horse kit but an infantry kit and a cavalry kit that are somewhere more overtly in between their Early Crusaders/Normans/Spanish and their Saracens/Seljuks/Rum would be neat, though tbf one can kitbash El Cid era stuff pretty effectively from various kits.

Napoleonic skirmish packs might be a good one, ala their Pillage sets that combine various sprues from their dark ages lines, but that's just new packaging.

Thorakitai/Imitation legionaries to go with their Thureophoroi would be nice too.

Parthians/Sassanids would be neat too.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817259.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817259.page GMT Victrix asking for new plastic kit ideas http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817328.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818771/11817328.page GMT
