Monsterpocalypse to return Autumn/Fall 2018
« on: March 09, 2018, 09:46:55 AM »
looks like it's coming back as unpainted miniatures - http://privateerpress.com/community/privateer-insider/earth-shaking-announcement

The main thing that stopped me buying into it the first time was the blind bag collectable nonsense, so hopefully they won't go down that route again.

They are making them bigger than the original versions, so that likely sucks for anyone with the original game - scale creep even in giant monster land  :(

For the revitalized Monsterpocalypse, we went back to the classic Factions and characters and updated their designs before producing all-new sculpts. By producing the miniatures as hobby models that you get to assemble, paint, and customize, we’re able to manufacture them in our own factory, which allows us to add a ton more detail to the figures that we weren’t able to create when the figures were in pre-painted plastic. They’re also quite a bit bigger and chunkier than the originals, which is going to make them even more fun to paint.

They will not be blind boxed. From their website https://www.monsterpocalypse.com/#faq

"The models will no longer come pre-assembled and painted and will not be sold in blind-buy boxes. Instead, players will purchase the models they want and then assemble, customize, and paint them to create a force that is uniquely their own."
