You remind me that I really need to pick up some Monpoc figs while they're still floating around at less than insane prices.

What a terrific array!

Apart from the little Bombshell robots, I don't recognise any of these mins.  Are they all from different ranges?

They are fantastic. your grubby industrial look is spot on, and the use of colours is very impressive. 


I would love to know where the figures are from, as I don't recognise any of them.

They look brill - strikes me as a great warband to use Rogue Planet for, it's a great stat-your-own set, and suits a mix of monsters and infantry etc like this

Pick any generic ruleset I would think. They don't seem to have loads of ranged weapons so even a fantasy one should work. Gets a little trickier if you want stuff like tunneling rules which aren't dime a dozen AFAIK.

Not much to add to what's been said about the minis 8)

Let's see how many I can get right:

The two big guys in the last photo are Monsterpocalypse figs, sadly OOP now.

The drill-tentacle-bots in the fifth image are Malifaux Arcanist Soulstone Miners.

The armored guy in the fourth photo is from a Treasure Hunter hero model from Deep Wars.

Rebel Minis' ex-Starship Troopers burrower bug, of course.  A wonderful model, economical and much better cast these days than when Mongoose was screwing them up.

Beautiful work Dan!

Lovely work on all those models! And the drool on that bug is......well, erm..... beautiful. I'd also suggest the Rogue Planet rules since pretty much anything goes and it looks as though your games would involve a lot of throwing people into conveniently dangerous scenery! Possibly Void Pirates and Starport Scum too, although I've only had a peek at those rules.

Great stuff and I'm looking forward to seeing more.

great to hear they're still available and better cast :P

Link to the store page (they're confusingly tucked under 15m alien stuff, which is a scale they do work fine in):

http://rebelminis.com/sandwurm.html

As the page says, they do still require some gap filling, but having done both the Mongoose and Rebel versions, the newer resin & metal cast is a better fit and easier to work with.  And really, $7.49 for one of those brutes is a major bargain.

As much as I am not a Scrunt fan, you have done a cracking job on this little project. The little robots that join the Scrunts are a nice touch and the whole group go together perfectly... smashing :)

The 'bity worm' is brilliant too :)

Keep it up... I am looking forward to seeing more :)

Graet figures and painting.
For rules, i suggest MUTANTS AND DEATH RAY GUNS They are based on the popular Song of Blades and Heroes mechanics which means you can use basically any miniatures you have.
