This looks great. Prodos by all accounts seems to have done a great job with Warzone, and this looks to be more of the same high quality fare. They have a good sculptor, and it really shows in their final product.

The minis look great. The only suggestion I have is to include normal full bases and not ones with slots if the minis won't have tabs to put into them.

If you look in the OP and through the thread, there've already been a few colonial marine teasers.

I'd further suggest not to cast minis with tabs or if it is impractical to still supply full rather than slotted bases. I'd also prefer the regular (e.g., GW) rather than framed (e.g., PP) bases for this franchise.

Oh, that's a nice shot.
Good to see that the predators are suitably larger than the marines.
Like... that's an imposing figure right there.

I hope there isn't a Kickstarter and the game goes straight into production. If they've got official backing from Fox, I doubt they'll need Kickstarter as anything more than a storefront.
I can't wait to see some closer shots of the Marines!

I could not tell you how long I have waited for something like this. We've had smaller, individual efforts that are nice miniatures (the Heresy Miniatures 'Head Taker) but never such a unified collection!
Looks like they've got the scaling right, the design & variety of aliens right, and the Predator checking his wrist computer is just too cool for words..
So far - extremely promising!

I doubt it. KS is a method for the manufacturer to get 92%+ of the purchase price which for prodos games is almost full retail judging from the Warzone KS. I simply don't see them giving up that percentage cut to instead do the large initial splash via the traditional route where they instead get 40-50% of the retail price. Having someone else prefund (although I'm not sure where you're getting that info... usually you PAY the people who own the license... they don't pay YOU) doesn't somehow lessen the lure of an almost double profit from the initial release (along with the almost free marketing that a kickstarter gives you).

its probably because mantic doesnt seem to be anywhere near as arrogant as GW.

Before the KOW KS, I'd have agreed with you. The more common sense reason is that the AVP figs are compared with a GW fig in the picture. I'm sure if they put a gorilla hands battle nun from KOW in there instead of a necron that the comparison would be even less favorable. There is no reason though for two middle tier UK minis manufacturers to start scratching at each other in something so simple as a scale comparison. The necron is most likely there simply because most people would end up substituting AVP figs into 40k armies compared with Mantic offerings.
