Careful, the bathrobe could be the alien in control - the ones inside are just the current meal.

Not even considered THAT option.

Today's offering is a Robot, useful in so many ways in a Sci-Fi game.

I love Marvin as a character. Uppity AI is great for keeping players in order.
Orac (Blake's Seven) 'Of course I can operate the teleport, but that is an operation more
suited to a menial like yourself'
Hal (2001 a space odyssey.
The computer in Paranoia, etc

I had forgot about Paranoia!! Think I might still have a copy bumbling around somewhere.

I once saw a game of Paranoia at a wargames show. Very entertaining.
e.g.
Players stuck in a falling lift, 'Can we undo the access panel in the roof?'
Umpire, 'Yes!' throws dice (behind a screen) 'There are 64 bolts' (more dice throwing behind the screen) 'Each one will take two minutes to undo'

later as the lift crashed, any survivors were accused of being, 'Commie mutant traitors!' by the umpire.

Some nice figures went with the game.

I used to play Paranoia at school - I remember being issued a supply of explosive cheese snacks, which I shared amongst the group, on a nod from me the DM would announce that one of the other clones have just exploded... took ages for anyone to realise what was happening.

Last of the mis-cast Head Bunny freebies.
An Angel.
I added a few scraps to the wings & clipped a bit off the sword.
This was to distract the eye from the horizontal cut off line.
I guess that is where it stopped printing.

I also fixed it to a plastic bottle top & in turn to another plastic top.
To add height to the statue I wanted it to be.

Looks great. Also large statues are often made in separate pieces so a line would in no way detract.

A perfect statue for a Halloween graveyard.

Cheers guys.
Thought it might also be useful in a bombed Russian Town WW2.
Trouble is I have barely enough buildings for a hamlet.

Took these two tops off some drinks bottles.
They were destined for one of the 'interesting bits' boxes,
but I noticed that part of the moulding looked like a 15mm door,
or 28mm access panel.
One quick base & paint job later here they are.
Either a 15mm Pod, or some 28mm Machinery.
