thanks for the update, just know that the faster you make them available, the faster I throw wads of digital cash in your face.

As for the project, choices are hard  o_o

Just sent the Bronze Age guy an email to get the scifi ones and some of his fantasy ones as well, hopefully I will get those soon. The Cobalt ones are tempting, especially for the price and variety, but the models just aren't nearly as good as Bronze Age. I keep looking at Infinity wulver, I'll probably pick them up and use them, mixing them in with the BrinzeAge as less devolved 3rd gens. It's be a done deal, but the claymores and tartans keep giving me pause. So much potential in the Infinity stuff, but they're all so heavily Scottish that they don't work well for anything outside that theme. At least they have guns, and the wulver girl swinging the sword should convert into a mortar loader without too much hassle. 1st and 2nd gens are good to go since I already have tons of Wolfen, just need to sci-fi them up a bit, maybe GS some kneepads similar to the Bronze Age ones.

Not related to this project, but for converting wolfmen I find the Warhammer Beatsment quite neat. This is from a few years ago, he was sitting in my "some day" box. Simple conversiont to GS the mane where the horns would have been, reposition the ears and enlargen the snout and turn hooves to paws.

Black hat have the cobalt line:

So that's where the Cobalt line went... I was kinda wondering why West Wind stopped selling them.

Good, I was needing some Aruk to go with my Palansi



I actually have that image on my credit card.

the not-teenwolf might be usable with some work to make it not look like a Lettermans jacket & bluejeans, but that werewolf bounty hunter is just terrible. Well sculpted model but the hat, oh god, WHY THE HAT?! combined with the pantaloons and vest and double-barreled shotgun it's a figure that has a lot of personality in all the wrong ways. It's like some high school kid won a contest and Reaper made his RPG character. Much like the scottish Infinity figs, it only works for it's very narrow intended purpose.

I do really appreciate the suggestions though. I'm always on the lookout for more figs and I do like most of Reaper's minis, they make some good regular werewolves in their dark heaven line and their Warlord Lupine line is great as well. Hopefully I'll get some work done on the other guys and have an update tonight.
