Title: (Commercial) Crooked Dice: PA Buggies
Post by: uti long smile on April 04, 2018, 06:14:07 PM
I'll be re-releasing the classic Pardulon Buggies at Salute this year. There are three different types - all for £20 each. They are a resin and metal hit (roll-cage and random multi-part driver).

Available exclusively at the Crooked Stand at Salute - TD11. If there's stock remaining then these will go into the web store after the show - or else released officially in May.

Nice.

There will be a rush first thing next Saturday.
Is the gun an option on all of them?

Here’s hoping! The gun is just on that one, but alternate weapons in production.

Nice to know these are back! Unfortunately I'll have to wait 'till May to get a buggy... I'll buy some plant creature stuff too then :)

Sorry for asking this here...just saw that you are releasing some PA trucks also. Will they be available soon? I won't be going to Salute but they would like great on my Imperial Guard army  o_o

I suspect trucks will be released in June. I only have a handful of previews available at Salute! I’d love to see what you do with them of IG.

Sorry to threadjack - but what about your Adolescent Radioactive Testudines Far-East-Warriors? (*ARTFEW - my own trademark  lol)

You showed some in a demo game. Any chance they’ll be made public?

I'm sure I will not be the only one to try and do something similar, 2 of them look like proper military vehicles, hehe. Now to wait until June  ;)

We’ll be running that at Salute too. Last few buildings being finished this week, but will try and get some pics before the big day.

Change over the figures to a guy in a jacket and beanie hat and you've got yourself a vehicle for modern games as well. Which come to think of it I've been looking for a buggy, I may have a look at one at Carronade if you guys are there. :)

I bought one of the rear engine ones for (ultra/retro) moderns and two of the prerelease trucks.

I also bought the Empress British crew figures (possibly for the Empress Jeep) which I am also going to try in the buggy.

More (and dressed) figures for these would be welcome.

Do you have any Imperial Guard troops so you could take a picture with the pre-release trucks? I plan to buy them when they become available so I can convert them to 40K. It all depends on their size...  :D

There are pre-assembly photographs of a Tortuga on this thread with a Cadian Imperial Guardsman.

They look like a good size match.

Thanks, they look great for what I want. And if the buggies are the same, maybe I can kitbash some sentinels out of them...  :o
