Wasp?  Heck with that I want the Marauder 3R they put the brakes on to return.

Oh come on, you know the answer to this conundrum... ;)

I actually just ordered an Anzu (with lancemates) for a "Marik Heavy Lance" yesterday. Really looking forward to putting them together.

The Gunslinger will be in my next purchase, I'm sure.

Was that you! Awesome...soon as I saw it I was thinking MARIK FAN! LOL

Thanks for checking things out...I think you'll be impressed with the minis!

I know this may be a bit premature, but given stunning developments in the legal case (full details in its thread, but tl;dr -- Harmony Gold has agreed, pending the Judge's sign-off, to drop the case against PGI and IMR with prejudice), are any plans in motion to return the Wasp to production at IWM?

Sorry for the double post...but...

Sadly...at this time, the powers that be will be taking a no comment stance.

Things may look settled, but there is a LOT of legalities still to undergo.

Until Catalyst, InMediaRes, TOPPS, and the like say all clear... consider this matter NOT settled.

I've already reached out to a couple people involved in the aspects of the case...and they cannot comment on it or what the future will hold...AT THIS TIME.

I can say within all certainty...an official announcement SHOULD be forthcoming when the ending legalities are resolved, everything is signed off on, and filed

Nope, not until an official okay is given and no idea when that will be.

Good to hear Speck! That Mongoose Gunslinger and Anzu are beautiful sculpts.

Guilty. I saw the Anzu and thought "oh, well, whilst I'm here..." I'll be back to add some friends shortly (thinking either 1st Covenant Guard or Iron Guard to complement my Marik Militia) once my paint backlog is firmly under 100 again. Maybe if someone didn't ship so quickly  ;)

Now, if we can just get the Neanderthal, my inner Eagle is going to be thrilled.

LOL sorry...I'd slow down the shipping but then others would complain too!  ;D

I'm quite sure you'll like the minis...they really do look great, and yep...I agree on the Neanderthal. It will be out someday...just need to be patient.

JP...no problem, happens to me a lot on Facebook. Besides, everyone is overly excited about the possibility of certain things being released, or put back into production.

Overly excited? Not at all... just because I know I'm going to want more Wasps than the two I have for my 2nd Nightstalkers... (I mean, I want some for other units... the 2NS is set in stone...)

Woo! Hawkwolf!
Good news is the lab boys say the symptoms of asbestos poisoning show an immediate latency of 44.6 years. So if you're thirty or over you're laughing. Worst case scenario you miss out on a few rounds of canasta, plus you've forwarded the cause of science by three centuries. I punch those numbers into my calculator, it makes a happy face.

Yeah it did come out great, so did the Cougar resculpt.

Just a hint for coming Gencon Con Special announcement, think Wolf Empire for Mech pack (only 4 mechs not 5 like a star sorry).

Well...I'll preface this with I HAVE NO INSIDE INFO ON THIS...this is just my speculation (sadly)...

Ryoken Skinwalker!!! And maybe variants of other already released mechs.

Someone needs to help me on what arms would be good to convert the Dasher II into a 2 Model.  My first instinct is sceptiscemia E arms with a triple barreled gun pinned to the cowling. Let me know!

I'm pretty surprised that we got a variant sculpt of a mech before getting the default version.

With all due respect to the stock Dasher II, it sucks and doesn’t need a mini
