Apes in Power Armor (Miniatures from AT-43)

(Also posted to Champions cuz SuperApes are just totally genre)

 

For real-real, not for play-play.

 

You'd have to be some sort of soul-less automaton not to get jazzed over these suckers.

I can really go ape for these.

I wanted apes in armor, but went for the Critter Commandos

 

the AT43 ones are too much armor, not enough gorilla, for me.

They even have cigar-smoking apes.

 

I play against someone who uses Karmans--just on appearance alone, it makes a fun game.

 

The UNA forces or Red Blok would make great agent type miniatures, and if you ever wanted to do a funky alien invasion, the Therians would be useful as well.

How many in a unit box?

[incrdbil]

Re: Apes in Power Armor (Miniatures from AT-43)

 

Depends on the Units, actually. Some special heavy weapons types are just 2-3 to a box (but are usually bigger), other units come 6 to 8 to a box.

Cool.

 

They are 28mm right?

Human figures are more on the 33mm range, up to eye-level... (Link)

 

 

Those Karmans must be huge.

Talk about scale creep

 

*caution illogical rant follows*

[illogical rant]

And by the way, on an unrelated note. That is not a Mobile Infantry Cap Trooper. Mobile Infantry are power armor troopers capable of orbital insertion, not wankers in thier underoos.... [/illogical rant]

 

 

 

PS thanks for the pic

The way the miniatures hobby goes..I don't you can at best say something is 28'ish'.

 

Of course, knock them down to flatter bases....

I'm afraid you're wrong.

 

That's a perfectly logical rant.

why thank you

Re: Apes in Power Armor (Miniatures from AT-43)

 

Yep, Susano got that right again. Perfectly logical rant Spence, please feel free to do it again. Slag off the movie while you're at it, I need the head nodding neck exercise.

 

The apes are a bit too much cyborg though. For Pulp I'd prefer more ape, less armour and carrying generic 20-30's weapons, Thompson submachine guns perhaps.

I liked the movie, mostly because it had nothing to do with the book. It did kind of adopt too many plot points from Aliens though.

Team Frog have a great range of "Critter Commando's" suitable for any crazed scientists animal army. I rather like thier gun toting apes. Not too sure about thier ducks and penguins though.
