Nice models and as always your PJ gives them character in a way that always reminds me of 90's cartoons. (in a good way!)
I was wondering do you happen to have any 15mm scale models around to take a scale pic with? these might work as power armor/mechs or robots in that scale as well.

Thank you :)

For anyone who is interested, there are some resin masters for auction here:

...and it looks like they are getting VERY close to releasing the metal ones (maybe this weekend?).

I'm not going to order any...

... OK, I am  :-*

In a good way, I hope :).

Here's what's on offer:



As you can see, you need to order the bodies and arms separately but that gives you supreme control over how you want your squads to be organised. I think the Mini-gun with a power shield would be quite cool - maximum damage with maximum defence :).

I can't wait for my latest parcel to arrive...  :-*

I am planning to pick up about ten of these little guys when finances allow.  Inso, do you think that you could put one of these models next to a plastic Mantic Forgefather and take a photo some time?  How do the new suits compare to the older bare headed grymm in armour thats been around for a few years (Torsten)?

In general the grymm are a bit titchy alongside the Mantic stuff, but I am hoping that the I can get away with using these power armpured models alongside.

The camo armour looks great :)

I'll post something later on... New P/A, Torsten, Plastic Forgefather.

I reckon it will depend on whether you are happy using the plastic FF and the resin ones together (with the obvious size difference). I think that the Grymn powered armour would work well against the resin ones but may be a push for the larger, plastic forgefathers... but a pic will tidy things up so I'll post one later.

Sorry, I couldn't get to a Torsten model but here is a comparison pic:



I think it works for either Forge Father... but definitely the resin one.

For info, the legs on the new powered armour are the same as the ones on Torsten's armour so you can assume they will go together OK.

Thanks for taking the time to do this: I appreciate it.

The plastic guy looks a little more chunky in comparison alright, but within parameters for me.  The PA troopers wont be standing, parade ground-like with the regular troops anyway.  Im gonna have to start squirreling some cash away for those guys.

Thats interesting.  Torsten looks a bit like a shrunken little old guy next to the Mantic figures.  Are the PA bodies a little chunkier than Torsten I wonder?  They look a little taller and a fraction wider in your photo.

Thanks again for taking the photo, nice one.

Thats very kind Inso, but dont inconvenience yourself too much.  The photo shown gives me the information that I need.  I am simply curious to see if Torsten is a bit smaller than the new PA.
