15mm Japanese School Girl Tank Crews

[Lord GreyWolf]

As Part of the Girls Und Panzer thread we are looking at sourcing some 15mm Japanese school girls that can be used as bailed out crew and tank commanders.

Eureka Miniatures has had the following added to their 300club.

http://eurekamin.com.au/product_info.php?cPath=87_194_202&products_id=12398

All you need to do is put in the amount you want no payment will be made until it is funded. The miniatures will cost around $0.80AUD each.
depending on how many are pre-ordered will influence how many variants are made.
at present there would be 4 different girls with maybe a second set being made if funds allowed.

Currently we have almost 300 pre-ordered but need to hit 600 in total before it gets made.

If we had 35 guys each pre-order 10 each we would exceed the amount we need and the minis would then be made.

The cool thing is you could use these minis for any sci-fi or mech type game.
as far as I know they will be anime themed.

please if your keen to get some add your order now as this project will most likely be cancelled at the end of February if the 600 units is not hit.

if you do pre-order some can you post in here so we can keep it up to date. no need to know how many just that you have supported it would be great.

Cheers

Might also want to mention it here on the Future Wars subforum.

wasn't sure I was allowed to do two posts about the same subject.

Well, you could always wait a week or so they're not concurrent.

As long as you're not plastering every board, I think you'll be fine.

[Arlequín]

We do tend to frown on two conversations on the same topic on separate boards you know... 

A lot of folk read a number of boards, particularly if they are related like 'Modern' and 'Future' and people will also pick up the recent posts thingy too, we figure that is enough.



How about TMP? There are one of two nice people on there, or so I'm told.

ok I got a reply from Nic. from Eureka Miniatures.

Dear Alan,
 
My apologies, we never make concept art for the Clubs, unless someone supplies it.
If the project gets up and made we would be looking at four figures, two to fit in hatches (ne full figure, one half figure), one to sit outside on the tank, and probably one running, to escape a burning vehicle.
If we get enough money to make more figures, we would increase those numbers.
 
Of course I would make those suggestions once the project hit target and if we received feedback saying that other poses were preferred or these were unsuitable, we would change the designs before we made them.
 
All the above is predicated on getting the numbers, and this is looking increasingly unlikely as time goes by.
 
All the best
 
Nic

So those who pre-order would get to voice their opinion on how the minis would look. But for me the minis should be something like this:


or this:


So if your keen to get some of these and support this we really do need more pre-orders. at least another 350 more if possible.,

Cheers

I'd suggest spamming TMP, TGN and the FoW forums.

I will do TMP tonight as for FoW forum i think battlefront would delete like they did to my 6mm FoW project thread. And TGN?

[von Lucky]

Good point re. Battlefront; TGN's forum is tiny.

But TMP will be the best place.

I made a post on TGN awaiting moderator approval... will make a TMP thread soon.

[mpennock]

I'm in for 30.

will make a TMP thread soon.

That's working out well, isn't it?  

[Lord GreyWolf]

I should have written RELUCTANTLY will make a TMP thread.

I know what that site is like and should have known better but....

thx for pre-ordering some of the Tiny 15mm Japanese School Girl Tank Crews.

quite a few views on there are rather narrow minded and take alot out of contents. oh well
as long as this project gets finalized and put through I will be happy.
