Happy to announce the release of our latest 28mm offering. I'm calling him Major Hammerfaust. Use him as a commander for your favorite army or as a cool painting project.

In light of the recent release of the Sadoukadi Greatcoats, we've put together a little assembly tutorial. We know metal models can be intimidating, but with a little hard work and preparation, they go together in no time!

Happy to announce our first release in 28mm Sci Fi...the Sadoukadi Greacoats!



More info about how to buy them can be found HERE

As we prepare for the official release of the Sadoukadi Greatcoats, we have decided to stop taking pre-orders after July 1st. After that you will have to wait a week or so to purchase them and then it will be at the normal 30ドル price. Get yours at the reduced price while you can!

Here's another preview, this time a fully assembled squad...



Here's a body with some other heads to demonstrate scale, but not compatibility...



Release should be in the next week or so.

-Steve

While I wait for the painter to complete his work, I thought I would post an assembled figure to show what they look like. All I've done to it is give it a light coat of primer.

Here is a shot of a new 15mm prototype...


Still working on the proportions but I'm almost there.

I'm very happy to announce that I messed up and over-estimated the production costs of our 28mm Greatcoat models! The new price, upon release will be 30ドル. The pre-order price is 25ドル. We will be taking pre-orders right up to the day we receive the first production run, which will be sometime this month.

We are now taking PRE-ORDERS on our first 28mm release...the Sadoukadi Greatcoats!

"Born of hard conflict and drawn out wars of attrition, the Greatcoats of Sadoukad-16 are the embodiment of the foot slogger. From frozen arctic wastelands, to burnt out cities, to sulfuric trench-laden fields of mud, the legions of great-coated warriors are able to adapt to a variety of battlefield environments. Drawing upon what some would call “antiquated” equipment, their strength lies in their vast numbers."




These 28mm multi-part figures are cast in white metal. Each pack contains enough parts to build 10 figures and includes the following:

• 5 standard heads
• 5 heads, goggles up
• 5 heads goggles down
• 10 torsos
• 10 sets of arms, multiple poses
• 10 sets of legs, multiple poses
• Alternate squad leader arms
• 2 extra weapons: Grenade Launcher & Flamethrower

Here's an update of what's happening in the Mad Robot Lab...

15mm

• Harook Specialists are ordered and being cast this week, they should be available for sale in June.
• The next Harook release will probably be the Dropship. The model is completed, it just needs to be printed and cast in resin.
• The TMC should get some additional support this summer if all goes according to plan.

28mm

• The Greatcoats are mastered and the production molds are being made this week. We are shooting for a June release. The follow-up for these will be a heavy weapons squad and should come together rather quick since a good portion of the base parts are already done.
• Planning has begun on some civilian models, a total of about 10 figures, more to come.

That's about it for now. Thanks for stopping by and if you have any feedback on our minis, please shoot us an email and let us know.

-Steve

Right, first off, my announcement about the message board was very premature and I don't really feel like putting the effort into maintaining something like that. I'll leave it to folks to just contact me through email or on forums to offer feedback. Maybe it will happen in the future...you never know.

In happier news, here are a few WIP shots of the Harook Grav Heavy Weapon Platforms I am working on. The kit will include both guns and 2 crew members as well. No definite date on this one but I hope to have it ready for casting by mid-summer.




The Harook Special Weapons are currently at the caster, as is our first 28mm Sci Fi offering. That's all for now.

-Steve

Here is a picture of all the prints we needed for casting. I still need to go over these and make sure they are up to standards but it gives a complete picture of what we're dealing with.




-Steve

Received the first of what should be the final 3D prints on the Greatcoats today! There are adjustments to be made on the weapons to make them a little beefier but the final masters should be in hand in another week or 2 and then it's off to the casters!

28mm News

Just a quick note to update the progress of our 28mm Greatcoats. The final test print is off to the printers and I hope to have it in hand by the end of this week. I'll post pictures as soon as I have them. Assuming that everything looks good, we'll print up the remaining pieces and they'll be off to the casters no later than the 22nd of February. It's speculation from there but I would hope to have our first batch of figures ready to sell by mid-March. We'll be keeping our fingers crossed that everything goes well.


15mm News

• As work continues on the 2nd wave of Harook minis, designs for a dropship are now in the works as well.
• The design phase has begun for some heavier additions to the TMC, more on that to come.
• I've been considering a new alien race to add some more spice to the 15mm Sci-Fi world.

That's it for now. Thanks for sticking with us, we have a lot more to share with you guys..please stay tuned.

Ok guys, as promised, here's some pictures of the 3D print I received a few days ago. I've taken the liberty of standing it next to some other fairly common figures for the sake of comparison. I think some of the shortcomings are more obvious than others but feel free to offer up whatever feedback you may have.

First up is a shot of the individual pieces...


Next up is a group shot of various figures for comparison...


Finally we have a tighter shot of some standard troopers...


Thanks for checking this out and offering up your ideas and suggestions. A happy and safe new years to all!

-Steve

Figured it was time to get some proper feedback from you guys.

What we have below are some new renders of our Greatcoat Troops. As usual, please consider these WIP. They are off to the printers and I hope to have something in hand just before Christmas.

Feel free to leave constructive feedback and suggestions.

As we continue to move forward on the Greatcoat Troops, I will be sharing some sneak peeks of how things are going. As always, if you have any suggestions or feedback, please let us know.

Here is a little teaser...
