Round 1 2015 Fan Finance Suggestions

[speck]

Count another vote for the Red Reaper.  I'd also put a good chunk behind a Hel and Grand Summoner.  Especially the Grand Summoner.

Thor II (Grand Summoner) has already been done and will be release in the next few months as a web only.

[Scotty]

Oh!  My mistake, was not aware of that one.

Vote still goes out for the Hel and Red Reaper.

[mdauben]

Thor II (Grand Summoner) has already been done and will be release in the next few months as a web only.

More good news!  I was never a hugh fan of any of the first wave OmniMechs (talking artwork here, not performance).  All the updated models of those, like the Mad Cat Mk II or the Vulture Mk IV, are great improvements in my eyes and the Thor Mk II is no exception to this.   O 8)

[God and Davion]

I would like to see a Primitive Rifleman, a Primitive Griffin or the Swallow WiGE. They are very, very nice.

[Pat Payne]

I would like to see a Primitive Rifleman or a Primitive Griffin. They are very, very nice.

I'd like to second the Primitives -- any of them not yet sculpted. If resculpts are in play, any chance of resculpting the Reseen Archer so that the fakakatah missile bay doors are something a bit more reasonable? I've wanted to do one of those, but I'm completely intimidated by what everybody;s saying about gluing the doors in place...

[Col.Hengist]

My vets is for the Belleraphon. Guess I've been spamming that lately.

[Jal Phoenix]

I'll throw in for the original Goblin tank from TRO 3026/3039.  It's the only tank from that book that has never had a mini (Barring the APCs and that engineering... thing).

I want the Wildfire from Unbound.  It's re-officialized and has an updated record sheet in 3055 Unabridged. 

The Teppo from TRO 3085 Supplemental, and the Destrier/Ballista from TRO 3145 Davion.  They don't need to be doorstop-sized chunks of metal, just big.

The Sokar from TRO Prototypes, bucause it's unconscionable that something that ridiculously cool hasn't been made yet.

A resculpted Imp matching the art in Historical: Operation Klondike

And lastly the Mauna Kea from TRO 3075, because there aren't enough boats, and there's alwasy room for one more mini that no one will ever buy. 

[Mastergunz]

Ooo, thats a tough call. Given the option I would stay away from minis that are simple mods or variants of exisiting ones.

I'm a huge fan of all the primitives so far so i'd have to say a primitive Rifleman would be great. I know we have the hammerhands and Battleaxe but a true primitive Warhammer would be cool...just maybe a pipe dream, lol.

Also, the Bellerophon and Gauntlet. ;D

Damn you, Jal. It's unbelievable how spot-on your calls are. I second all of the above, though I believe the Sokar was already funded under FF1.0...

I looked at units missing minis and immediately had a list of more than a dozen "must haves". So I'll just throw 1 'Mech and 1 vehicle in the ring:

Patron (Shugosha) Loader/Patrol/DroneMechs with copious amounts of bits to make differing variants. This little 'Mech spans four different publications (TRO 3075, TRO Prototypes, XTRO RetroTech, RS Vehicle Annex) with lots of variants and could be such a fun model.

Predator Tank Destroyer from 3145 Capellan Confederation. Maybe with a variant barrel that's thinner but longer to represent the SW model (in a nod to the BattleTechnology original).

I would be throwing considerable cash at either of these.

Gun Trailers

Great idea, especially if the turrets are compatible with the current line of IWM bunkers (w/weapon turrets).

Also a Gunslinger that matches Plog's 3055u art would be awesome :)

This I would love to see.

The Flashman, as it stands now, is not only ugly and not try to the art...

To be fair, it's quite true to the original art (TRO:2750), and the two newest versions (3039 and 3050U).  I would like to see ball-joint elbows and separate legs, though.

[MidfieldMarauder]

Ursus II

[jackpot4]

My vote is for a Templar III. 

The old one, while cool, comes off as a bit of an unweildy tank.  I really like the aggressive looking Templar III from the 3145 era.

[Giovanni Blasini]

Yeah, the Patron would be neat, too, jymset.

[Wolf Reaper]

I throw a vote for the Flashman and primitive Rifleman.

I also would love to see better Annihilator mini.

I would love missile arms to make the Kraken XR into the 3.

[Weirdo]

I would love missile arms to make the Kraken XR into the 3.

On the one hand, ALL THE YES. On the other hand, I'd be a bit miffed, since it took me a long time to get ahold of the bits I need for my conversion.

Nah, I'll stick to my first answer. O0

Oh, I have made that mod at least 3 times. :)

[Cyc]

Bit cliche, but I'd love to see the more blocky/angular Battle Cobra from Invading Clans.

[SteelWarrior]

I'd second the Flashman.  The art for it that Weirdo posted would be preferable.  I'd find some money to toss at that

Also a Gunslinger that matches Plog's 3055u art would be awesome :)

I would second the Gunslinger!

[Maingunnery]

Bit cliche, but I'd love to see the more blocky/angular Battle Cobra from Invading Clans.

Its good art, I think that it would be best to regard it to be the Comstar version.

[BigAl]

I like to see a Arbiter from TRO "Prototypes".

[Cache]

I would love missile arms to make the Kraken XR into the 3.

They might have to be careful with that. The art floating around for the 3 is not canon. A fan comissioned it.  While the XR art is a near direct copy of the 2 and 3 fan-comissioned art, they still aren't canon, in-house artwork.

True, but the same artist did both I believe.

[Stinger]

True, but the same artist did both I believe.

Nope! Matt Plog did the 2 and 3 commission while Chris Lewis did the XR

[Atlas3060]

The Thug and Rifleman from XTRO Gunslingers.

[Men Shen]

When this thing opens up for Warships can we please get a decent Leviathan. The best Warship in the Game needs a decent sculpt readily available to all! Anyway a Temax Thundercat or whatever would be cool. Or Felix Thanatos!

[Cache]

Nope! Matt Plog did the 2 and 3 commission while Chris Lewis did the XR

Which is what had me doing a double-take at the XR. Exact same proportions, pose, and angle as Plog's work.  ???

[B-3]

WOW!!! Great to see this kind of response! Looks like we'll have no problem generating a list! O0 

[Baron RedSkull]

Sounds like you're going to be very busy.  O0

[Humansquish]

Not sure if they are in IWMs plans yet but I would love to see the Sarath & Juliano.
