That Grizzly is a bit pricey for a 4"x7" sized vehicle in my mind.

Lol, however you may feel, that is not the aim at all! :)
Prodos Games is a dignified company that respects it's peers as equals.
Considering the sneaky backhanded insulting manner that GW/citadel destroyed warzone the first time round, why respect them?

No, I don't think so (weird Swedish bankruptcy laws did as I recall).  GW certainly celebrated the death of their only real competition of the time though.

AFAIK target games destroyed themselves by taking over all distribution to shops, screwing over distributors. Logically, these were quite angry and dumped their warzone and chronopia for low prices at shops. Shops had such a massive stock, they didn't need resupplies (and some weren't happy at all with taget games' decision). TG quickly fell afterwards.

As I recall, I've been told the main company folded, taking a reasonably healthy game design department along for the ride to darkness... Basically, what Durandal said I suppose.

All the same, "destroying in a sneaky, backhanded, insulting manner" certainly could include jubilation over the downfall of a competitor and I'm willing buy into GW doing just that tho I can't recall actually personally seeing anything to that effect. But it also implies a whole lot more.

Hmmmm I was planning on pledging for Bauhaus but now....
Rifles are to big/clumsy, shoulderpads a bit too large.
I know its sci-fi but still.... hopefully they'll adjust a few things.

Hi
I like the new look of Hussars, it's great there are different head options too.
Now, request to Prodos guys or Rob :
Is there any chance for any comparison shoots with old WZ minis guys ?
Cheers T

Those will be coming soon. Just waiting on getting minis back from painters.

Don't worry though, they will not be like the Dystopian Legions models, which are freakishly tall compared to the rest of the market. If someone buys warzone models to use in another game, that is absoloutely fine!

agreed, guns look way to wide/blocky/square, rest looks ok.

Here and on FB there are a lot of complaints about various aspects of these new renders. Someone says that weapons are too big (with the previous design, people said the weapons were too small), someone says that the shoulderpad are too oldschool/big (the previous were to little/not in the right position). Same discussion about the grizzly: it's not enough big/it's too big or it's too "classic"/it's not exactly the one depicted by Bonner. It's ok to discuss, but there are two main style option: 1) old school/bonner art
2) a brand new line only "inspired" by the old minis/concept.
The fact is that Prodos is keeping the foot in both camps. IMO, it is the best and most difficult position :)

Personally, I think that the new hussars are better than previous. More "old school" without being too much :) Weapons aren't that big. After all, big weapons are always cool  8)

Some tweaked poses.



And just the resized weapons (they are still tweaking the poses on the lower ones, the top renders are a teaser of poses).

Oh, and shoulder pads are confirmed as separate pieces.

I never realy felt it for Bauhaus, more a Mishima and Dark Legion/Cult man - but Prodos, you have won me over, it will definately be one of the forces collected.

Whilst i may not be overly keen on your rules (no issue - i have Versions 1,2 and 3 - and will add yours to the collection), the figures and pushing a great background back into the limelight i can only thank you for.
