Title: Amazonian women in the mood...
Post by: Christian on 11 February 2009, 01:02:28 PM: Hope someone picks up the reference in the title. Anyway, I was after a nice Amazonian warrior princess figure that would be suitable for VSF games. I've seen the Bronze Age ones but before I jump the gun and get those I wanted to see if there was anything else around?

I'm assuming most fantasy models would suit, but there seems to be something peculiar that makes the model a "Space" Amazon rather than a regular, garden variety Amazon.

Any help appreciated, thanks!

Rivets!!

Christian is right, that is just a sneaky way of adding extra rivets ;)

Hope someone picks up the reference in the title.

This is a reference to the classic episode of the great cartoon Fururama, where Fry, Leela, Bender, Amy Wong, Kif Kroaker, and Zap Brannigan wind up stranded on a planet filled with huge Amazon women.

"Death to the men! Death by Snu-snu!"

The title of the cartoon is in itself a reference to the fake B Science Fiction/sketch comedy movie Amazon Women on the Moon:

I'd forgotten all about them! >:(

Now I don't have enough money to buy any and I really do need a unit or two for the Chief's bodyguard.

Something else to save up for :)
