Hi

Photos of GZGs new NAC Trike have been uploaded to my Dropship Horizon blog:

The Trike should be available from the GZG webstore this week.

Fantastic!

I wonder if Jon will try and make several types of riders for them.

OMG OMG OMG

These look fantastic. Will there be any NI vehicles coming up (or NI rider variants for NAC vehicles/equipment)?

Jon do you think we're made of money?!? This is nothing short of predatory!

Yup.. i like that.. :) very nice.

chronoglide15 Nov 2009 3:57 p.m. PST

that's quite good, not as good as the NSL 25mm trike though….

This is where the extra heads pack comes in handy…

Eli Arndt15 Nov 2009 5:51 p.m. PST

Are the riders wearing standard NAC armor? If so head swaps would be simple enough.

If not, I'd like to see some alternate rider and especially paramilitary/security sorts as well as civilians. Also, I think that a vac-suited rider might be neat for tooling around on those hostile environment planets.

It's funny, I was just thinking today that nobody appears to make any bike-type vehicles for 15mm sci-fi. I like this trike, not least because of the separate rider. However, I'm going to hold out for some kind of jetbike. Perhaps GZG could add that to the ever-growing wish list…?

Those are pretty cool

I like the trike!

Alternative Armies makes those Judge Dred style bikes and their are also grav bikes for the Spugs in 15mm.

Thanks,

John

Ninja,

Critical Mass Games will be coming out with a grav bike.

DreamPod9 Make a set of jet bikes that will do for 15mm.

Ok, those are cool! Reminds me of the Can Am Spider in real life.

I was just thinking today that nobody appears to make any bike-type vehicles for 15mm sci-fi.

You're not the first to think that. There's the Spugs plus Tom's mentioned Critical Mass, but also a new company Art Crime Productions(?)will have a Grav Bike too.

Laserburn and HOF both from 15mm.co.uk have bikes available now.

TheSceneUK HAD Grav bikes and a halftrack bike until they temporarily took them down a wek or so ago. RAFM also HAD Traveller Grav Bikes until Aug/Sept on their Grav Tank webpage (not sure current status).

Cheers

Thanks for the alternatives, folks. The Art Crime Productions bike lacks any kind of grace but the Critical Mass Games bike is much more my cup of tea. I'm aware of the others already available but I don't like most of 15mm.co.uk's stuff and the price of the minis and postage prevents me from ordering from companies outside the UK at the moment.

Think I might get me a couple of these trikes in the meantime then see who wins the race to get a new jet bike on the market!
