Maxmini Automaton Bits

[Lowtardog]

I was looking at their VSF "not a V2" rocket and saw these handy bits for Automaton

Bodies on the way

[Malamute]

oooohhh, I like the harpoon arm

[rob_alderman]

I know these have been designed for orks and in that, they don't seem neat enough for VSF. I know how odd that sounds!

When I see it, I'll believe it! 

[Lowtardog]

I was thinking 3 packs which would each create a small unit by type now I need to look for heads with top hats and flat caps etc

Also how about the war on Terror

Weapons of Mass Destruction perhaps

[rob_alderman]

I can imagine some crazy Prussian Scientist with a world domination fixation using a few of those.

WOuld make a great VSF scenario, where the Honourable British come and save the world (again) by taking these weapons and disarming them with slightly odd and uncomfortable weedy scientist types...

Oooooooh resin lovliness!!

Those legs are very nice! Almost a "Wrong Trousers" look to them

I agree.
I really like those legs and arms a lot.
There is a lot of potential there.
Also, I think the rocket would make a great submarine if you took off the V1 rocket motor thingy and gave it a proper propellor or better yet, a pair of side paddlewheels.

Haha!

Has American Television been graced by Wallace and Gromit?

There was recently an exhibition at the Herbert Art Gallery of Wallace and Gromit pieces (i.e. the stuff they use in the animation). Fun stuff.

Errr, weren't that the remains of the first Prussian "Blitz-Post" attempt? The Reichspost tried so set up an airmail service to England, however the French and the Belgian governments didn't let them build the according post offices near the Channel...
Nice find, BTW, but it looks in that state a bit too "Orky" for my taste. With some work it might look like a VSF contraption.

It has certainly made it to Canada.

[Mr. Burning]

I'm really liking the maxmini conversion bits at the moment.

I reckon they could help me realise my mad scientist making lobotomised soldier mech things scheme.

[rob_alderman]

Aye but most Canadians are a bit more in touch with their British roots, what with the Commonwealth and all!

Just saw the Wallace and Grommit latest -- "A Matter of Loaf and Death" a few weeks ago here in the States. I'd say they are well known.

Those wrong trousers have got potential for a mad professor type. Add a few levers here and there. Hmmmmmm........
