I read somewhere that there are more bits for the v15-mec01a etc
mechs, and that these might be produced if the current ones are
successfull and we pester Jon enough:-)

Any hints of what might be available, or even pictures?

It's correct that there are loads of extra parts that I haven't cast yet; MMG,
the guy who built the masters, has made a HUGE amount of different weapon
mounts, "handheld" weapons, rocket pod variants, masses of stuff. The reason I
haven't put them into production yet is that I just don't know how much demand
there will be for that many variants, and which ones are worth actually
putting into moulds in the hope they will sell. There are also several other
actual mecha designs, including one with a mecha torso on either a tracked or
a wheeled chassis (very
Gundam-style), and all these also have myriad different weapon
options.....

I will be releasing a number of all-new mecha-type items at SALUTE
next month; more news on them nearer the show, but as to the extra parts for
the existing models I need to know what the demand is
likely to be - how many folks out there would actually buy more
options for the MEC01 chassis?

Ohhhh, I like the idea of a "Tracked" mecha!

So, what else do you have on the table for a Salute release?;)

Not telling yet, because I don't like previewing things until I'm 100% sure
the moulds will work and I can get them successfully into production. But
expect some teaser info before the show once the moulds are done, and maybe
some pictures too.....

More arm- and shoulder-mounted weapons would be welcome. Hands on
mecha somehow don't work for me.
