Title: Cogs.. which ones are these?
Post by: Bravo Six on 02 June 2010, 08:30:37 PM
Guys, I'm looking for these bad boys in particular but can't seem to find Cogs from AT43 without swords. Any idea where these are from?(http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/8534/cogs.jpg)

Thanks in advance.

I found one in the "T-Regulator Hero Box"
http://www.battlefield-berlin.de/shop/index.php?cat=WG1465&product=RK_COHE04&sid56B6977983A2499CAB608BB33B945735=e9ea80d7ccd54e265c92602c90a599c5

Hope it helps ;)

Wow, these look almost exactly like the District 9 aliens! Great find, might have to pick a few up myself!

Thanks Comsquare. Perhaps they're variants. If that's the case I'd need to keep buying the same pack over and over to get the ones I wanted.  Yikes.  :?

I'm planning to use them for Bounty Hunter Droids but could do without the saw/sword figs.

Does anyone know how they scale up next to infinity stuff?

Here's another set I'd love to get, but I don't think there are/were ever released. A preview only I suspect:

Saw some Cogs for the first time yesterday, they're big! For scale reference, those guys are mounted on 40mm bases and will tower over 28mm figs due to them towering over the AT-43 humans, which are a good bit taller than 28's.

Edit: I think the Oni Tacarms in the second pic are currently only available as part of the Oni army box.

You can find the guyin the middle in the "Oni Army Box", the Samurai of the Zombie TacArms
http://store.rackham-e.com/en/at-43/oni/army-box-oni

Not sure if they will be sold seperat.

For the Cogs you can also check the Army Box, they are the Sharpshooters, but seems equipped with slightly different weapons.

@B6 - You actually have a bit of a choice.

COG Gunslingers with Quantum pistols

(http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t50/Whiskyrat/COGS/COGSGunslingers.jpg)

Or even Sharpshooters with Quantum rifles

(http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t50/Whiskyrat/COGS/COGSSharpshooters.jpg)

Unless you WANT to buy multiple packs to obtain multiple identical sculpts of T-regulator G27? 

FWIW, he is barefaced rather than helmeted. ;)

My preference is for the COG Type 3 troopers.

Gunmen with Quantum MG
(http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t50/Whiskyrat/COGS/COGSGunmen.jpg)

... and Gunfighters
(http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t50/Whiskyrat/COGS/COGSGunfighter.jpg)

Although they will tower over most Heroic 28mm figs, I'm planning to get a few boxes of unamoured Warmongers (Sharpshooters/Gunslingers) and armoured/jet-pack equipped Gunmen/Gunfighters for SG:U gaming goodness.  :D

As I'm too lazy to repaint PPP, they will retain their Day-glow orange armour.  ;)

NP - sometimes Super SecretTM access to AT-43 stuff is useful - that and having all of the Army Books in PDF.  lol

I haven't seen anything in the R:E release plan for a seperate unit box of ONI Alpha TacArm Zombies - you'll just have to buy yourself the ONI AB - complete with Sci-Fi Zombies and a couple of not too shabby vehicles for Resident Evil gaming. ;)

I've got one to use as a District 9 mech, very nice sculpts, shame about the bendy plastic

I do like the looks of those!

I had heard that Rackham was going to do something that was basically 'Not-Locusts' from Gears of War as their new army.

Anyone know more about that?

The next race out for AT-43 are the Krygs.

The Kryg Army Box was scheduled for Autumn 2010 but as many workers in China went home during the recent WW financial slump (not just in the gaming industry) it is going to take some time to bring back the workers and re-fire the furnaces.

This  (http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t50/Whiskyrat/Other stuff/Kryg.jpg) "may be" a Kryg as it is similar to a small piece of artwork  (http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t50/Whiskyrat/Other stuff/RBPg56.jpg)on page 56 of the Red Blok Army Book.

So far the R:E folks are keeping the "exact" nature of the Krygs under wraps.

Hei Whiskyrat,

have you any idea when these guys should come?

Cheers for that!  They look exactly how I was hoping!

Now, to teach myself some patience......

The ONI Korps were originally planned for early summer (that would be now) but the release plan is a little fluid due in part to the runaway success of the ABs (2000 points in a box as a usable force - go figure! ;)) and the WW financial meltdown.

The R:E folks are currently re-jigging their release plans, but they are reluctant to publish their new release schedule until things in China become more "business as usual".

From what I have seen the first things on the NEW Super SecretTM release plan will hopefully reach us in time for Colours - but ONI players will have to wait a little longer.

If I hear/see anything I'll PM you.  :)

Let me know if you have any luck with that supervike. I know that I for one struggle with that in this hobby for sure.  :?
