The 2nd Stretch Goal has been unlocked and we still have 22 days to go!

The Epsilon Squad comes with a heavy weapon trooper with a chaingun/minigun on each arm.

This Stretch goal will now unlock an additional Heavy Weapon pose and option back weapons.

What type of back weapons would you like to see?

I would like to do both aiming versions and stowed versions (versions that are in the up position on the back)

Coming up next is the Hura Heavy Weapons Squad! This will have a lower-form of the Hura as pack creatures implanted with control technology and accompanied by Hura handlers while carrying heavy weapons on their backs!

Check out the KS here: link

Thanks for looking grin

And here is a WIP shot of the three helmet options available to the Epsilon Squad:

Each miniature will come with a sprue of three heads.

Thanks!

And we have the last two stretch goals revealed!

picture

The Hura and Epsilon Special characters will come with two other figures to make a HQ squad.

We're still working on the design for the Hura Special Character, but we were thinking for the Epsilon Special Character perhaps someone with lighter armor, maybe a female carrying a sword?

The mech will be at least twice as tall as the figures and will have a similar design aesthetic (but more armored) to the Epsilon, but the pilot will be completely enclosed.

Thoughts?

For the mech:

I would suggest 1.75 to 2.0 inches tall for overall height, elbow mounting hardpoints that are 1/8" sockets, and forearms and weapons "elbow" hardpoints that are 1/8 male spheres.

That's just me dreaming out loud, though. ;)

Best,
JBR

I think I could arrange that… Would that make it compatible with other addon, weapons and accessories that might be out there?

John Bear Ross10 Jul 2014 4:13 p.m. PST

Yessir, the half-dozen CMG mecha I have done and the next generation of HAMR suits fall into that size and compatibility zone, along with all those weapons and accessory bits in the CMG Mecha Workshop.

Best,
JBR
