Need some Cops or G Men for your 15mm fun.  There are a few companies out there that offer some nice police officers and G men.  You can pick up these from Rebel Minis, The Scene and 15mm.co.uk.   15mm.co.uk offer more futuristic police figures.

Mark Mondragon from DreameForge-Games has been sculpting away on another vehicle called the Black Widow.  I really like the look of this vehicle.  I am not exactly sure if it is going to be for 6mm or 15mm or 28mm.

I recently received some Kaamados Dominion figures from Critical Mass Games.  I have to say I wasn't really excited about the Kaamados Squamata Imperialis when I first saw them. The pictures just didn't do anything for me. Now that I actually have them and can look at them close up, I have to say they are excellent models. They are fun and should paint up nicely.   I was also pleasantly surprised how many different poses make up the Squamata Imperialis line (35 different poses).   The Kaamados Vivipara look great online and look just as impressive up close.

Brigade Models has a fantastic vehicle in the form of the 15mm Rhino MBT.  The Rhino MBT is a 15mm vehicle with loads of character.  It is sort of a mix of an alien apc and a sci-fi tank with a really big gun.  The excellent painted figures below came from Colin of Wulfweb.

Ever wanted a tall German looking robot to dominate a 28mm game.  Your wait is over.  Tobi of Tobsen has created a wonderful model that I am sure will have plenty of uses in all sorts of pulp scenarios.

I just finished putting together some models made by Quantum Gothic.  The models are a joy to build and really easy to assemble.  Each terrain piece I received came with great directions on how to assemble them.   Quantum Gothic uses high quality resin and the pieces are very detailed, making them some of the best Sci-Fi terrain out there.  I especially liked the Communication Dish.  I could see it being some weird type of mass destruction weapon rather than a communication dish.  Even though Quantum Gothic terrain is geared towards 28mm, many pieces could easily be used in 6mm or 15mm.

Fight's On! just sent along some pictures of how their products could be used in a classic game of Ogre miniatures.  I first saw them using the products a few months ago.  I especially loved the look of the missiles of which they make 3 types (Air to Air, Surface to Air and Air to Ship).  The missiles make a battlefield come alive.  Check Fight's On webstore for a full list of products.

I have always been a fan of various 28mm Pulp Sci-Fi bots.  Here are just a few that I have found over the years.  Hydra Miniatures came out with two fantastic sculpts for their Retro Raygun line of miniatures.  Of course there have been others and here are just a few.  Here is a nice writeup by Germy on building a pulp robot.

From the first time I saw the Craig Rowlings Killer B 28mm Sci-Fi Pulp GAFDOZ miniature line, I became a big fan.  The miniatures are sculpted by Bob Olley and Brad Shier.  Killer B is coming out with an 1950's style range line called Star Patrol.  To order these figures email Craig or via online at Recreational Conflict.

Khurasan Miniatures has provided a nice picture of an upcoming vehicle called the Drill Tank.  The model was sculpted by John Bear Ross.
 
From Khurasan Miniatures

The giant drillplate is a separate piece and spins for fun value. As you can see the sallyplate is separate and can be depicted opened or closed.

The ridge along the top is the door for the fusion cannon, which can also be depicted open, and a whole arm and platform arrangement will allow you to deploy the highly posable chewkannon on its boom, complete with intrepid chewk gunner in the seat.

This thing is big, but most of it is under the ground of course. It will look particularly big compared to the chewks as they are quite small.

It's being cast now, so availability should be within the next two months. The status of the chewks themselves is somewhat less certain.
