Title: Achtung! Cthulhu minis range on sale
Post by: modiphius on June 19, 2014, 02:16:02 PM
Modiphius' range of Cthulhu Mythos creatures, Allied Investigators and Nazi Villains (from the Achtung! Cthulhu setting): http://www.modiphius.com/miniatures-range.html (http://www.modiphius.com/miniatures-range.html) - are now available to buy now from the Modiphius webstore - http://www.modiphius.com/shop.html#!/~/category/id=9099174&offset=0&sort=addedTimeDesc (http://www.modiphius.com/shop.html#!/~/category/id=9099174&offset=0&sort=addedTimeDesc) and Northstar are also carrying the range. We're currently planning another range of sets including special US Pathfinders, Badger's Commandoes, Black Sun troopers, and more creatures to expand the factions and a skirmish system is coming later in the summer.

Here's some examples of the sets

I went rushing in to have a look the other day after Nick posted on Facebook but they didn't have the ones I wanted either. Apparently they are being released 4 blisters a month, so they only have the first 4 blisters currently. I don't know what order they will be released in sorry, maybe Ballardian does?

I'm afraid I don't know any more than you do, I just happened across them just after they'd been put on the site, I'm also hoping that the rest are put up by Northstar soon.

Too much symmetry and legs for my taste, but very well crafted none the less. The allied investigaters are especially cool.

I'd like to see how these compare to Artizan & other WW2 ranges. Definitely some cool stuff in there.

I did a quick comparison while I was looking, height wise they fit in fine but the Cthulhu stuff is much 'finer'. They're a more recent style of sculpting, also the size of the figures is much more variable. The Deep Ones for example, One was smaller, one was the same size and one was bigger than the compared Artizan figure. I'd have no problem mixing them personally.

All the first 4 waves are available from the Modiphius store http://bit.ly/1pLWJRd - we're just introducing them slowly in retail so we don't overload the stores with choice.

Working on the 5th Wave now including Black Sun troops, Badger's Commandoes with steam guns, Majestic's special Pathfinder force with mystic blades and a Deep One Reef Breaker
