Meat getting a bit tough? Ok try this, it's absolutely delicious, one of my favourite northeastern dishes:

Never been a big liver or tripe fan, but with all the other stuff cooked in that may be worth trying.


The top picture makes it looked fried, is it?

Are those chocolated beans a render or an actual product?

Ooh! So exciting!

USMC mold is 99.9% ready to go. There are two last bit tweaks needed, but as you can see - the Marines are about to hit the beaches!* We will update everyone next week on when to expect these guys in your mailboxes and at your Friendly Local Game Shop!

*) Thought these were the space kind of Marines tho, not the sea kind.

No, you cook it up in a big pot of salted water. Think of it as a Brazilian haggis. My wife hates it, I love it, so it's an occasional treat when in Brazil.

Is there any news on the marines yet?

It seems to have all gone quiet...

From DG website:

FINAL USMC MOLD TWEAK COMMENCING!

Posted in News Category
We're VERY excited and relieved to have received the following pictures from the toolmaker today. The 3rd round of mold tweaks and test shots has gone extremely well and the USMC mold is 99.9% ready to go. There are two last bit tweaks needed, but as you can see - the Marines are about to hit the beaches!

We will update everyone next week on when to expect these guys in your mailboxes and at your Friendly Local Game Shop! Thanks again for your patience through all the trials and tribulations! (Also next week we'll reveal the little "thank you" bonus plastic figure that every pre-order will receive!)

there is still a lot wrong there though... weird arm that looks like fabric, eyes on the bare head aren't even level, cuts on the armour look very soft and the helmets still have the CAD polygons showing... not terrible, but not the whizzbangsuperbestestever that DG have been going on about...

What's with all the sheeting between the arm and the gun stock?

part of the stock.

Those sprues look fair to me. Not that I'm holding my breath, but if/when they ever come out, it might be worth picking up a box.

If so, that is a dumb design.

[Predatorpt]

part of the stock.

Yes, that's part of the stock. I think they were trying to do a stock like this:



Sorry for the pic, it's the only one I have right now.

Of course that design looks great in bullpup weapons. That isn't the case in the weapons used by the DF Marines

[anevilgiraffe]

bullpup?
