A little while back, I grabbed some Games Workshop magazines that came with a sprue of minis and some paints on the front. From memory, the first few issues were, like 99p or £1.99 or something, and they sold out like crazy, because everyone was buying up five or six copies at a time.

I think I managed to get six space marines but after failing to paint them for over a year, gave them away to a local gaming group (for kids to practice their painting I think). Anyway, what I really liked was that the poses were “guns aiming” rather than “across the chest” in a way I’ve not seen in recent boxed sets.

So I’ve been on the look out for some marine-type characters, but with their guns held in an aiming position, rather than boringly held across the chest (or, just as tediously, up in the air while the other arm is pointing at something in the distance).

I’ve not seen many, but this month’s StationForge release looks really interesting…

3d printable not-space-marines that actually look quite cool? I’ll have me some of that (but maybe not until I’ve bought all my pressies for this year, so it won’t be until some time after the 23rd….)
