Light padded armor? Doesn't look light to me. Looks kool, ala Darth Vader. Especially the left one. They do look nice and would be a good set of minis to purchase. :-)

I kind of like them. If the scale is right, I'll pick some of those up.

No interest in the aliens things.

As for the humans (?) I can only say, "Old school, show me the Minis!"  

Or at least a Green.

Gracias,

I think it can be viewed as light compared to Powered Armor, "Carapace" armor, or similar.  It does have a "militia issued armor" look to the armor but I think of lights as depending on speed and/or concealment over armor.

Edit: upon review, the armor could indeed represent cloth "armor" more than "ballistic plastic" or heavier armor, I guess.

Gracias,

Glenn

I invisioned painting them as cloth padding.  And seeing them as "light" compared to big-shouldered 40k power armor.

They also have inexpensive bases in this Kickstarter.
They come in different sizes and styles.  You can pledge for all bases, all alien hunters, all aliens, or a mixture of them all.

The next stretch goal includes a $25 option for a dreadnought.
  They are also working on 2 not-predator alien scupts.

Is it really necessary to spawn a thread on these minis on three separate places on this forum?  ;)

Okay for the first.  :)   I try to avoid any thoughts on the latter as PPP ("personal; prejudiced policy.")   ;D
