Yippee for the mantis uav.

Great to have more aliens. Don't know yet(...) what I'd do with the Ixx(eeks?)
gropos, but it'll be interesting to see what the spaceships will be like.

P.S. It seems you have something new every month. Where do you keep al the
moulds? The number of products is getting a bit out of hand with this rate of
new releases.

! Your stuff just gets more amazing from month to month.

The Mantis is gorgeous and the Ixx are a real surprize. These, along with the
armed spacesuits are on my "must have" list.

My only wish would be there were more Ixx for 2.50, but I guess 8 bits that
are 8 figures for 2.50 vs 8 bits that are 2 figures for 2.50 is
understandable.

Hopefully there will be a little something extra in my end of year paycheck,
which I can duly turn over to you.

Loving the Ixx John, loving them, now make enough different models and
variations (heavy weapons/vehicles etc) and I'll be working on my second
15mm GZG force...

How are you progressing on the floating hard suited dudes with guns?

eady commented over there a couple times, but I want to speak up here as well.
The Mantis and Ixx are both lovely. The 15mm line has been pretty much a
consistent hit with me and my pals and continues to go that direction. I am
curious if the Ixx are envisioned as being more, less, or equal tech to
humans. This will greatly influence their vehicle and equipment designs, I'm
sure.

If the Ixx do well, will we be seeing more intelligent alien species? That
question may seem to answer itself, but you never know.

Any chance of doing unmanned versions of any of your walker designs for those
among us who would love some "think tanks"?

By the way, what is a Hrung, and why should it choose to collapse on

Yes, pronunciation is "icks" (or more properly "icksss"...) - it's a
name I've had floating around in my head for years, waiting for a chance to
use it. It's a "humanised" representation of a <click> hissss sound from their
native speech, which comprises a series of clicks, clacks, hisses and whistles
(my guess is that it would be rather hard to make human speech sounds through
insectoid mandibles!).

He's been spinning like a turbine ever since one of his kids started talking

Well, we wanted a decent batch out for the last shows of the year;
after Warfare this weekend, we'll be so busy with pre-Xmas orders
(hopefully!) that there may be a bit of breathing space for us (and
you) to catch up.....  ;-)
