Hi all

looks sorta like starship troopers, though the figs for that game sorta suck. I actually think it looks sorta interesting, though we are gonna have to wait til its not like a cult game.

Are they still planning this as pre-painted? I assume not as there\'s no way they\'ll be pre-painted to the level shown there...

I keep hearing that pre-painted thing....WHY? Why would they want to do that?

Not that I doubt it, just cannot understand the decision.

I like what I see there...

So, for years now we have been hearing that Rackham are eating into GW. Now we get Rackham, + Kev Walker +Wayne England + Karl Kopinski + Adrian Smith. :)

gw has let some of it\'s talent go over the years instead of paying them what they are worth. now they are paying the price and the public/ other companies are benefiting.:)

back on subject, i like the look of the sculpts but i will wait till i see them in person before i decide if i will get any.
(to much cadwalion stuff to get hold off:))

And more importantly, treating them badly! Its good to see these artists working on fresh new stuff! I\'m looking forward to it! I\'ve heard a lot of people talkign about it being pre-painted... where did this information originate?
 
The pictures I saw in Cry Havoc they where all white, so if they sell unpainted verisons I would up for that, but if all the paint job quality is going to be as good as shown in that link I am game. God knows it can\'t be as bad as this past WOTC star wars set.

Weird thing is he seems to expect the quality of painting to be \'Rackham Quality\'.

I expect some re-branding there for \'Rackham Quality\' to suddenly mean \'not very good\' instead of \'gold standard\'. I mean, how do you do prepaints at that kind of level???

Or have they figured something very clever out?

IMPRESSIVE !

Come what may ,they have one incredibaly impressive list of EX/GW Artists,( probably the best they have had ). Also the minis themselves if they are half as good as the fantasy stuff its going to be very interesting times a head ! :cool: GOD bless ........ VINCENTI

As stated in the rackham forum the minis will be sold pre-painted but with the option of buying them blank.
They wont be sold in booster pack.

And for those caring about the quality of the mini itself, rest assured:high top quality, the details are perfect like the newest confr minis.

On Christmas many of us will go bankrupt, trust me.

AT 43?

So...General Grevious\' cousins are waging war against the Mobile Infantry?

I won\'t hold my breath...even if it is from Rackham.
