Sometimes you just see something that perks the interest and for us here at The Ion Age such a moment happened a few weeks ago when hobbyist and painter Allison M stated that he thought the IAF041 Corbal Deployable Hardpoint would be better suited if it could MOVE! Yes move and he thought this could be done by giving it legs. Read on to see what madness ensued. Go HERE: link GBS theionage.com

Gavin, Whatever happened to the expansion for Firefight 2.0 for building combat for 28mm?

That is really cool. I hope we get to see the legs as an add on kit…..

That is a brilliant use of "Bionicle" parts! I've got a tub of these and really should start looking at them as terrain fodder.

Thanks for the comments guys. Allison M said he was going to try this and he did! Nnascati our plans for the 28mm Ion Age commence late 2015 at this stage. Presently what we have for Firefight is on the website. GBS theionage.com

Thanks for posting this, Gavin! There are a few work-in-progress photos on my blog if anyone wants to try and replicate the legs I made… but honestly there are probably a lot of other fun cheap ways to do this :) link @Sergeant Paper: yeah I thought of that connection too. Maybe she would use a Ion Age "geo shelter" instead?

A Geo-Shelter? Maybe the lab? I could see that.
