So, these are the photos of the masters for the Traveller Kickstarter minis:


Gazelle and Launch ("Adventure" scale)


Fleet Scale minis. Yes, that's the P.F. Sloan between the Skimkish and the Driafria.

And the metal masters to go to the production molds. Note that the "soot" or "pitting" you see is actual "soot" – they have to use talcum powder on the resin masters to make the mold, and some of that remains when they spin metal through it; that's literally charred talcum powder.


Metal Masters! All 10 new minis!

They're in the queue for production molds, and we'll be getting pricing soon. When we get the pricing, we'll see what the final 'retail' box contents are.

By the way, these are only the new ship models introduced in the the Kickstarter. The fleet boxes will include the ships from the existing Traveller range.

Good to see these finally becoming available.

I hope the Gazelle will be available for sale separately, after the KS.

Any rough guess at a timeline for availability?

Timelines lead to disappointment.

Disappointment leads to anger.

Anger leads to the dark side!

Without the Dark Side, there would be no Star Wars………

I have a feeling that I missed out on a KS somehow…
