Question: whenever you get around to making the new Awesome mini, are you planning to include an alternate left arm to make the AWS-9Q variant?

I want to have that variant done.

If the price is right I might be convinced to fund the 9q arm if necessary

Any thoughts on making the 8T? Can be accomplished by making zeus like rotary missile pods that go over the torso ppcs like a cap

Then one kid could service 5 or so variants

That would be a question for CGL.

My bad. Sorry.
Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries

These, in the day when heaven was falling,      Their shoulders held the sky suspended;
The hour when earth's foundations fled,         They stood, and earth's foundations stay;
Followed their mercenary calling,               What God abandoned, these defended,
And took their wages, and are dead.             And saved the sum of things for pay.
     
A.E. Housman

I think the 8T is also on my wish list.

Any chance to get Wondergecko’s Tundra Wolf and Warwolf sculpt done through Fan Funding?

I will gladly help for funding both of these suggestions!

I just hope that when IWM gets to the Awesome, they'll be able to correct
the right arm PPC (the plastic version having a somewhat oval barrel...)

Got my hands on the C3/5 Catapult.  Only gripe is that there is no attachment peg for the Arrow arm. I'm experienced enough to work around it, but others may complain about it.

The Stormcrow A torso has the same issue,  where you need to pin the arms to the body as well.    The other variant torsos have the requisite pegs.

A new print has been requested from the 3D printer for that part. It should have peg on it. I will post when the new part is in so replacement can be sent.

Any idea when we will get Q1 and Q2 production announcement?
