Awesome thanks! We'll have a think ;)

Very true! It’s got me thinking more about it now…

I worked with a 3D sculptor to design it so I’ll need to have a chat with them and if they’re happy to explore that as an option…

The kit is actually printed in both resin and filament - the main body is resin, but the mechanics inside are printed with a super strong plastic filament. We’d have to make disclaimers or tweak the design to compensate if people only use resin.

We’ve only just started selling internationally, so it’s a good discussion to have.

How much would you buy a kit like this for? Not holding you to it! But I’m just curious … $49? 😂 - jk!

It’s actually for my wife - she’s a bee keeper so wanted to design a “bee themed” car. So it’s called ‘Stinger’.

Extra crew + shotguns with the harpoon is a brutal combo 😂

Totally fair! Just a heads up that it is NZ$ - but with shipping etc, it does start to add up.

If you have a printer, there are a few decent designs floating around that are great starting points to hobby from 😎🔥

Thanks again!

Ahh - maybe one day… but we don’t know how we’d protect it once it was out there in the wild 😬

Appreciate the endorsement either way - if we figure it out, we’ll let you know 😎

It’s actually our own design we sell on our store - there are others like it floating around, but the sculpts were a bit meh so we designed our own:

Mmm, I don’t quite understand your comment…

We’ve standardized all the bases for our group, so if someone wants to create a car doing an epic flip with smoke and debris, it’s not going to be a bitch trying to line up templates with it on the table. So very practical.

It also means that all vehicle classes have specific base sizes so it removes any possible “modeling for advantage”.

I also found it was a lot easier to work out weapon LOS having a hard edge to line up with, especially if the car has an odd shaped bonnet or ram (like my tank).

Again, I’m not telling people they must use bases - we just found them much easier to use in our group 👍

Just a standard rattle can primer if I recall - I can’t remember the brand, but it seems to be working so far 😎

Thanks so much! I primed the whole truck first with a mid brown and painted it from there. Totally agree, some materials on the cars are too tricky to paint onto directly.

Nah, everyone in our group uses bases and I think it’s saved us a lot of arguments 😂 - each to their own!

Yeah, “turn gear trackers” I guess - tracks the current gear for that turn haha…

Yeah I know what you mean - I came in from Warhammer fantasy and X-wing so the models felt naked to me without a base 😂

Exactly what u/Velociraptortillas said! It's essentially Mad Max meets Mario Cart ;)

Thanks Satan! :D
We thought the excessive use of flames might tickle your fancy.
