merry christmas contest - Mega Miniatures

ault, to go along with the physical one he’s about to lay
down. Great figure with tons of uses outside of Warzone
if that ain’t your thing.
Oh great googley moogley, a
new Cybertronic figure! I just
about wet myself when I saw
this guy and I don’t even play
with the People’s Republic of
Computer Chips. He did require
a little cleaning on the mold line
and there was the tiniest bit of
flash on one hand. At first
glance the pose seems a little
flat, but the ammo belt and the bend in his knees gives
the figure more depth.
I had heard about this
next guy from
someone at either
Origins or Gen Con and
could not wait to
actually see the Golden
Lion carrying a Nimrod
Autocannon. Cripes,
he’s cool! Besides
carrying a freakin’
massive gun that could
shoot through a
building he is also smoking a stogie and is wearing an
eye-patch. Kind of reminds me of Nick Fury, Agent of
Shield a little bit. A little more cleaning here, especially
around the gun, but nothing drastic. Another great
figure.
I would have to guess that the two figures below are
additions to the Mishima army and are likely to be very
stealthy, sneak up behind you and chop your head off
kind of models. They are both wearing skin-tight
bodysuits and area carrying a katana and pistol with what
are probably silencers and flash suppressors. Muscle detail
can be seen beneath their suits in several places and
you could really freak out your opponent by painting
them with the translucent painting techniques presented
later in the Slave Pit. These were both very clean
models that did not require any cleaning.

I don’t think that I’m going too
far out on a limb by saying that
we have a Samurai Grenade
Launcher on our hands here. I
am really glad to see the
amount of work that is being
done to flesh out the figures for
already existing troops in
Warzone. He’ll fit right in with
the older models and nobody
would look twice, except to see that he’s actually carrying
a grenade launcher. The sealed face mask looks very
good and after a very little bit of cleaning to the mold line
he’s ready to go.
Ok, who set the wayback
machine? The
Praetorian Stalker
below is one of the
original from back in
the Mutant Chronicle
days and then in 1 st
Edition Warzone. I
had figured that the
molds had gone up in
smoke but if they are
available again then
that is just very cool.
The newer ones are just fine, but these are old-school
and that’s a good thing. I hope that his twin that is
carrying the large machine gun with a bayonet is also
available. He had no cleaning issues and was ready to
drop on a base and undercoat right off the bat.
Last up this time around is
what looks like a Ducal Militia
rocket launcher specialist for
the boys from Bauhaus. He
comes as a two-piece model
with the rocket launcher and
right arm separate from the
rest of the model.
He’s built up with extra
armor plates like the
Ducal machine-gunner
and I like the consistency of the heavier looking
armor for the guys carrying around the big guns in
the Militia. He also has a couple of pouches and
grenades on his belt and a pistol in a boot holster
in case someone gets too close to shoot at with the
rocket launcher. The mold line was visible and
required filing, but this is a very nice figure.
Looks like things are picking up steam over at
Excelsior and I can’t wait to see more gaps filled in
and other new troops start to emerge for Ultimate
Warzone.
