We are happy to release our 28mm Earth Force. Many of you may recognize these as the old Mobile Infantry line from Starship Troopers. We had to make some changes to the helment, tabs ect, so as not to infringe upon the IP- but we got the go ahead and here you go!

nice. at $2.00 USD a figure they are at great price also. I see one special weapon and 11 grunts with assault rifles. Are there any plans to expand this line?

haywire08 Aug 2014 6:47 a.m. PST

Cool!

2nd one on the front left side, is that a scope on his gun?

And two women soldiers!

Great painting by Micropanzer, I like the OD green.

Now I need to finish up Operation Brainbug.

I remember 10 poses being sent to me so am sure other configurations of packs will come out

Tgunner08 Aug 2014 7:39 a.m. PST

Yep. That was the DMR weapon for the MI. Nice figs. I might go back into 28mm just for these.

Nice Figs and a bargain too! Great to see female troopers that actually look like real female troopers.

I've got all the sci-fi troopers I need, but well done getting these back into production and best of luck with your continuing re-release of these great figures.

Very nice!

Really happy to see these re-released with only minor resculpting. Almost sad I sold off the 80 old ones I had, but I would never have done anything with them, so they're in better hands now.

I picked up 240 of these when they were released. Great figs! I sold off 3 sets for $300.00 USD. Nice to see I can get more now.

Thanks,

John

Brilliantly done, Mike, and just in time for our playtesting the Metal Express sci fi ground combat skirmish rules set in the Silent Death universe…evil grin

Super well done.

Now we only need cougars and grizzlies (or would that be pumas and polar bears?).

If you ever get to the SST Heavy Weapons Pack, can you make Earth Force gunners?

Personal logo Rebel Minis Sponsoring Member of TMP22 Aug 2014 5:24 a.m. PST

Which do you mean?

John Leahy Sponsoring Member of TMP22 Aug 2014 5:16 p.m. PST

Perhaps the one with a dual auto cannon, flamer (IIRC) and I think a missile launcher.

Ah, let em see what we have. I think I would need a new Sculpt for the gunner. I don't think the original was this version of MI…

Didn't the original OOP MI box set (the plastic, armored figures) come with a couple of special weapons, a rocket launcher, grenade launcher and small flame thrower? I only recall one box set of the Light MI troops? It's been a while though! Would be cool to see them expanded though…

billthecat25 Aug 2014 8:44 a.m. PST

Sweeet!

John Leahy Sponsoring Member of TMP25 Aug 2014 5:55 p.m. PST

There weren't any LAMI heavy weapons, IIRC.

Thanks,

John
