New VSF Range for 2017
« on: February 11, 2017, 11:50:06 AM »
Hi,
Looks like there is a new VSF range from Tumbling Dice:
http://www.tumblingdiceuk.com/product-category/12400-naval/victorian-sf

The Tripod is 40mm high and the spider (handling machine) 15mm. At those heights ideal for Land Ironclad rules. I'm hoping Paul will bring out a Martian flying machine, HMS Thunder Child and other VSF wonders. Just got myself three packs of Tripods and a pack of spiders 8).

Cheers

Jeff

As mentioned on TMP, that piccie is on the '1/2400 Naval' index page, not on the item itself nor the Martian link above. NO image of 'spider'.

Very interested, but has anyone else images thereof?

Thanks, Jeff!

Doug

Edit: And, as Jeff just said on TMP: Yeah, there is no pic of the spider as yet.  lol

Thanks for the heads up. I am a big Tumbling Dice fan for both price and service.

Well, this does look pretty good. If they make a series of 15mm vehicles, Im in. Or did I get the scale totally wrong? :/

1/1200, i think is the nominal scale for them.

Under the '1/2400 Naval' scale page, but I think looks a bit large for the ship they have in the piccie. I took the image in M$Paint, and reduced the tripod to 50%.

Half the size (or double the ship's), it would still tower over.

Love the products... SO wish they would just add the images to the site, they must loose so much custom without them..

Sometimes it's new folk not understanding customers, sometimes old folk new to e-commerce.   ;)

My own failures could fill volumes...  ;D
