Rebel Minis Blog Update: TCN-2000 "Tin Can"
« on: 23 June 2012, 04:43:33 PM »
We have updated the Blog with some pics of the TCN-2000 or "Tin Can". We are adding it to the Earth Force Arsenal in it's fight against the Alien Bugs!

The TCN-2000 or "Tin Can" as the Earth Force Marines call it, is a autonomous battlefield robot that assists in the support of troops with both firepower and hand to hand combat. The first TCN-2000 trial-tests were in 2031 during the Bug invasion of New Portland. The Model is all metal, multi piece and stands roughly 2.25" to the top of the head. Model comes with a 50x50mm base.







You can read about them here and see comparison shots: http://rebelminis.blogspot.com/

or see them on the site at www.rebelminis.com

Thanks!

Can we see a picture of the pieces unassembled?

Edit: The word "model" was changed to picture so the request would make sense.

That's the old CHAS robot from Starship Troopers, right?




I've always loved that mini and I'm glad to see that now I can buy it again!

Is it possible to assemble the hips differently?  It doesn't look like it could walk at all easily at the angle they are at in the picture.
Back from the dead, almost.
