Just wanted to say I'm super pleased with the Raider. I've only put them together and primed them so far.

Pics?

Mine should be being picked and packed at IWM as we type. And then shipped Down Under.

Any word on the update for what is on the release schedule for 2023?

Working on finalizing now. The Awesome that did not make last release of 2022 will be in the release.

Will have last release of 2022 on IWM website here soon when I add more scrap yard parts.

I am not sure I understand, you are releasing the last quarter of 2022? Will we get a schedule for 2023?

I believe Speck is saying that the 4Q minis from 2022 are going to be released in the IWM store soon, along with more Scrapyard bits. And he's also working on getting a new release schedule for this year up.

Speck is busy.

It’s not that many lol. Just some more items people requested and then pictures for other parts already on the store.

Yes, sorry for not writing my sentence better.

Out of curiosity, is there a planned release for the Battlemaster as of yet?

Death_from_above · « **Reply #910 on:** 04 February 2023, 09:38:21 »

@ Spector ; the Battlemaster is already up on IWM's store :

Goes to show how observant I am....

worktroll · « **Reply #912 on:** 04 February 2023, 14:13:59 »

I've just seen it - bought on behalf of a friend, so I can't say I've seen it assembled yet, but it looks like a good big beefy mini which will stand well next to the plastic ones.

MoneyLovinOgre4Hire · « **Reply #913 on:** 04 February 2023, 17:29:06 »

The only issues I had with it were that the leg pieces took some filing at the top in order to get them to attach to the hips properly and getting the tiny patches on the back (for the rear-mounted medium lasers in the standard model or the nothing back there for the Royal) was a total pain.

Prometheum5 · « **Reply #914 on:** 04 February 2023, 23:02:50 »

Yeah, the metal Battlemaster feels a touch small compared to the plastic and the hips are genuinely terrible. One I was very excited for, but that's been a bit tempered.

speck · « **Reply #915 on:** 04 February 2023, 23:26:27 »

Winter 2022 release are available on IWM online store now. See the annoucement for more information.

Prometheum5 · « **Reply #916 on:** 04 February 2023, 23:29:00 »

Awesome! I've built the Crucible and Amarok so far and they're both fantastic.

Luciora · « **Reply #917 on:** 05 February 2023, 00:33:02 »

The Amarok was a fun build I agree.

truetanker · « **Reply #918 on:** 06 February 2023, 01:58:51 »

I got to ask it...

What is Speck and Co. gonna release for this years GenCon '23?

And would they include this in a Mini Pack like what CGL did to the 3d printed Force Packs?

TT

Colt Ward · « **Reply #919 on:** 06 February 2023, 10:21:29 »

None of CGL's minis are 3D printed? Some of the prototypes and testbeds are 3D printed, but that is not what is sold in packs afaik.

I keep Hoping for a revised version of the old RP Assault Lance Boxed Set (Battlemaster, Marauder and 2 Warhammers). I think the closest one currently would be a Light Lance Boxed Set (Stinger, Wasp, Griffin and Wolverine) or Recon Lance Boxed Set (2 Locusts, Stinger and Phoenix Hawk). They'd need to make the Stinger and PHK for both, or just the Stinger to have the Light Lance. At least these days we could have Variants either the WHM or LCT, instead of just 2 of the same model.

20-5211    Awesome AWS-8Q / 9Q    80    TBA
20-5212    Coming Soon         TBA
20-5213    Coming Soon         TBA
20-5214    Coming Soon         TBA

So will the 3 coming soon be more classic mechs? I am hoping for the Warhammer and Marauder

If they are done with GoAC box I would say you might end up with . . . new RecGuide mech, Clan Invasion Box mech, KS IS Wave 1 mech
