Sneak Peek of new Pulp robots coming soon from Brigade Games.  You'll have to go to our page to see the pics though, but it's worth it.

Completely modular torso's, legs, and arms...so the basic set will net you dozens of designs to choose from.

Sculpted by Mike Broadbent.  You can see my original concept sketch next to the jpg's

I saw these cute looking robots and they are wonderfully designed by Michael Broadbent.

A real treat for those who have an interest in Robots.

God Bless

Ha!  I'll bet Mike will appreciate the analogy...Maybe he should reduce his fee if all he's doing is adding arms to rooks!

Brigade has posted the pics in their forums, so I can now post them here.



Pricing, I'll get back to you on that, or have Lon and Brigade post a detailed release.  I think eventually, there will be an assortment of pars and bits as accessories.  So you can essentially build your own tin beast.

Wow--Those are great!

I especially like the tentacles with terrorized civilians.  Very cool!
I have one question:  How did you make the head look like it's floating in a jar?

Great work!

Mike is the sculptor...I ust draw pictures and sculpt vehicles  :)

The brain in the jar is pretty nice.  The brain and brain stem is part of that torso.  The set will come with a piece of clear plastic tube, you trim a bit.  Then there is a cast top for the tube that is glued into place.

I bet the Jar and brain itself would be a useful item as is!
