(KICKSTARTER) Mecha Front
« on: April 22, 2014, 09:39:50 AM »
Sorry if this has already been posted but Jon is running a campaign to fun 15mm and 6mm mecha for his Mecha Front rules (also useable in other systems.... obviously). https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mechafront/mecha-front-miniatures

I already have a few of his previously released designs.



There are some heavier designs due to be unlocked but they all look great.

Nice touch is the provision of magnets for the weapon packs so "Now you can waste hours of your time moving the lasers around and making Pew! Pew! noises just like I've been doing" says Jon.

Looks interesting.  However with hundreds of Robotech minis on the way I think I'll be more than set for the near future.  I love seeing new lines of minis/models so I hope he succeeds.

Coming in to say the Mechafront Kickstarter is in it's final 48 hours.  It's up past $19K at this point, and anyone looking to get into it would do well to check out all the unlocks so far.

Keep in mind, it is being done in both 15mm AND 6mm scales, with mecha/unlocks for both scales, and the rulebook will have everything for both scales included in it.

Get yer red hot mecha now!

I'm guessing this is the same John Paulson who did the lovely Robotech sculptures shortly before Palladium started their project.

The mechs look nice, and I think many of them are dead-ringers for Battletech proxies, but the prices are really quite steep for what I'd want.  I wish him good luck though.
