Wow, that's awesome, and you might get me back into 28mm! This allows for so many cool possibilities for *cough* Rogue Trader and its modern cousins, that Im severly tempted.

Just be careful this might prove to be so successful you might soon be no. 1 model supplier in F&SF minis...;)

Ah, I was all excited until I saw they weren't available yet.  Anyone know when they go for sale?  That space gnoll looks better than the fantasy ones.

The weapons look fine, they're very reminiscent of the pig iron/colbalt weapons, but if you do any more, please make the heads smaller. They look way too big on the cultist bodies to me.

Excellent idea.
Maybe a picture of sci-fi barbarians before the end of the nickstarter?

Available Friday. I'm loath to make them available until I have them in my hands, contract resin casters being what they are.

These are intriguing.  I'd been secretly hoping some plastic kits would have come along for Rogue Star as well...I suspect that's not the case.

I believe Nick said that a while ago on the actual Rogue Star thread, I would look through it for you but I am short on time this evening.

Essentially no plastics planned for this due to the model count for the game. He felt it wasn't viable for this one.

Yeah, I just feel that's a shame because a generic 28mm plastic kit for traders, pilots, mechanics, neer-do-wells, and bounty hunters would have been fantastic (and I think there'd be a huge market for a well done modular plastic kit).

I think a mercenaries/pirates kit would do well, but in the interim I would absolutely love to be able to buy a sprue each of the soldiers, barbarians, cultists and gnolls along with some of these weapons  ;)
