Ooooo, those are cute!

The one in the middle wants to be my pet. I can tell, due to the longing way in which it is staring at me.

Would love to see some smaller ones, about 10mm – 12mm in sized, too.

Those are SERIOUSLY cute, and they inspire all kinds of scenario ideas. Are they harmless? Dangerous? Helpful? Captured as pets? Livestock?

They also work in so many genres, from sci-fi to fantasy to pulp to lost world to VSF . . .

If you've every played Knights of the Old Republic, these should remind you of something.


Gizka.


Gawd I hated them things.
On a different note, very cool models.

Very nice. I'm planning a ship infestation game using Space Hulk, these will be a funny twist to pull on the players.

cloudcaptain11 Apr 2014 7:46 p.m. PST

More like Anarchy Online :)

I bet they're crazy delicious.

Fried.

On a stick.

Sigwald11 Apr 2014 7:54 p.m. PST

Bit me one a thems once. Taste like chicken

Dan Wideman II11 Apr 2014 9:22 p.m. PST

Sure, they're cute now, in a second they're gonna get mean. They're gonna get ugly somehow then there's gonna be a million more of 'em.

grin

They need a second "ugly" version. With BIG teeth.

Porkmann11 Apr 2014 9:49 p.m. PST

I like them.

vegabond11 Apr 2014 10:34 p.m. PST

Maybe it's the pain job, but they look like balls of green stuff with eyes.

Gaz004511 Apr 2014 10:58 p.m. PST

Leet on a stick…….

Caliban12 Apr 2014 1:57 a.m. PST

Noooo, don't fall for it – they are Tribbles with wings!

Henry Martini12 Apr 2014 2:54 a.m. PST

Far too cute for convincing vermin… unless the victims of the infestation are vicious, nasty aliens to whom niceness is anathema.

Patrick R12 Apr 2014 3:27 a.m. PST

Smart space vermin looks cute and cuddly, it's a natural defence against sentient species that can't resist them. And then they start breeding …

Patrice12 Apr 2014 5:22 a.m. PST

Usually I don't like alien-fashion miniatures; but these are… very nice; good idea.

Nice gentle creatures, the kind you would be happy to bring back to your home on Earth… and you go out for a walk with it, and it runs away, and it meets another one which ran away from your neighbour's house; and some days later the cats begin to disappear, and then you don't see no more foxes around, then sheep disappear, and then schoolchildren waiting at the bus stop disappear too, and you realize that you've got an invasive species! :)

Guy Fleegman: I don't like this. I don't like this at all.

Gwen DeMarco: They are *so* cute.

Guy Fleegman: Sure, they're cute now, but in a second they're gonna get mean, and they're gonna get ugly somehow, and there's gonna be a million more of them.

Just about to order but your website is down!

CLDecker12 Apr 2014 6:56 a.m. PST

2 sets ordered! It's good to have house pets.

Matakishi12 Apr 2014 7:13 a.m. PST

The website is up. There is a problem with the mobile version of the website however so I apologise if that's causing problems. It's out of my hands unfortunately.

Thank you to those that have ordered, your little critters will be heading your way as soon as Salute is over and things return to normal.

They almost remind me of the aliens from Dreamcatcher.

Kind'a cute … but they all must die …

recon3512 Apr 2014 9:36 a.m. PST

These are what you leveled up on at the start of Anarchy Online. These and their bigger cousins, the eleets…

Ron W DuBray12 Apr 2014 10:23 a.m. PST

Its all fun and games till your find out they have eaten all the food on board, then you start finding piles of bones and rags with crew name tags :)

These aren't the dreaded Space Herpes are they? Ewwww!

tberry740312 Apr 2014 1:51 p.m. PST

Here is the dreaded Space Herpes:

TwinMirror16 Apr 2014 3:07 a.m. PST

I'm getting some of these…not-Leet that is – no space herpes, thanks.

BTW, tberry, where/what film does that hideous cancerous little horror come from? I seem to recognise it, but my memory's not what it once was…
