Based on a conversation I had with Melissa when I placed my most recent order for my online store, they are being released soon as my order is being processed right now.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing these guys so I can decide if I need to make any purchases or not! :D

Bump.

My FLGS that I order minis from says the January releases are still on preorder.  Any news?  Has the release date been changed?  Any pics?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, the order I placed for my online store will be here on Monday, so they are just now going out.

I received them over the weekend and started assembly. I wanted to have pictures up by mid week, but I will be delayed a few days. I managed to burn my palm, nothing major, just a small burn but it hurt. So I am hoping my hand to be good enough to finish the mechs later this week.

They are all assembled and ready for pictures. But the weather has not been cooperating so I can get my brother over to use his camera. I am hoping things are good enough for him to come over tomorrow evening.

If your weather was like us one county south, it may be a few days.

Thanks speck  O0

Only one more set of releases left. Any idea when the release schedule will be updated?

Thank you, I (and I'm sure many others) appreciate it greatly.

By the way, despite how stocky it is, that Atlas is poseable as HELL. Aside from the knees and right elbow, every joint is a parts join, with room to be assembled in a variety of poses. The joins are solid too, so it's not the assembly nightmare this might make it sound like.

While I'm not that interested in running Cizins, I think I'll pick some up anyway, since if you leave the turret off, the tank hull would make a perfect 'mech-scale small craft, like this one:



Any reason why the Hollander III was assembled with the arm on top of the shoulder instead of on the side like it should be? ???

I find it funny that with all the complaining about wanting to distance themselves from the MWDA line...TPTB sure keep using the MWDA mech as templates for the 3145 miniatures...which are clearly different than the 3145 art. Look at the differences between the images for the Atlas III and the art in TRO:3145 Federated Suns.

The art looks like a very narrow right torso or the gun being mounted on that torso like the mini. The art looks like the gun is mounted right where the "vent" is on the left torso.
