Fist Full of Kung Fu - new painted pics on page 5
« on: November 14, 2013, 10:22:20 PM »
Don't think these have been posted here yet so thought I'd do the honours.









There are some Dallimore action shots on the North Star Facebook page:

And as you'd expect, they're up for pre-order:

No Nickstarter on this one but apparently the full bundle deal comes with a well known truck driver figure.

I knew I was going to want the Yakuza but I'm really impressed with the police figures.

I'm gathering my $$. Might have to ask Santa for this one, and roll the dice. Santa has been terribly ineffective in getting me minis in the past. :(

Completely agree @Dewbakuk. I wasn't sold when I heard one of the factions were cops but the figures look really good.

I love them. In the moment it seems that Nortstar do robbery to my moneybag with brilliant stuff. Hope the rules are not to "songs"-like and will fit to the kung-fu-subject (IHMN is an alternative, when it not fits, I think).

Great, thanks Dewbakuk for sharing

Looking good but yet again I am left a little annoyed and a little baffled by this current trend of marketing miniatures months and months in advance of their availability.  Not only do I not know where my interests and finances will lie next year but how many other tempting ranges will be launched in the mean time?

Well there's no way I can afford the whole rules & box sets offer so I'll put it out there now if anyone doesn't want their "Truck Driver Jack" I'm buying. Would like that set with the demon & wizards though.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.

I think it's customer driven to be honest. The books are made available because otherwise Amazon screws it up for everyone else and because everyone knows about the books they want to know about the figures. Obviously in order to have the figures sculpted in time for release they get started long before and because people are asking, companies are showing them as they get done rather than when they are all finished. That's my assumption anyway, I could be wrong :)

I'd much rather see stuff that's coming out than the GW approach of denying they sculpt anything at all until the day it gets released, even though the images were leaked a month or so before hand.

A couple more from the North Star FB page:




The three demon worshippers are based on the Wing Kong, but would also work quite nicely for In Her Majesty's Name Black Dragon Tong.
