- 0:24My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
- 0:26I can hear it in the hall now. It is breaking down crying.
- 0:32No no no no no. It's ish con week.

- 1:04in flight. So there you go on that very
- 1:10weird note, welcome to episode 77 of the Allegiance podcast.
- 1:15And it's the best time of the year.
- 1:17When these times of the year come up, it's a new wave just
- 1:20before a new wave. That anticipation that it could
- 1:23be actually anything. It could actually be something
- 1:26you want, you know, rather than just this moment afterwards
- 1:28that, oh, why didn't we get this or that.
- 1:30So I can't believe so we're going to get it.
- 1:36Yeah, the pre-order window was only 6 paychecks worth.
- 1:41And yeah. So it is, as we said, the Harrow
- 1:46Zone. It is the Harrow Zone.
- 1:48So it is a new Oxcrew Wave 2 Cosmic Legions.
- 1:53So that's why you see Miles smiling and you see Rich smiling
- 1:59because we got some new stuff. We got some new stuff in an in
- 2:03stock sale. So we'll talk about that as well
- 2:06and got some skeleton, new skeleton, exciting.
- 2:09We talk a little bit about that, a bare bones skeleton, which is
- 2:14kind of a little prelude to the Necronominus wave, which we
- 2:19should have by the end of the year I believe at this stage.
- 2:21So that's maybe been pushed out a little bit to what we
- 2:24expected. But you know, that'll be a nice
- 2:27maybe post Christmas. Always nice to get those drops
- 2:31in January isn't it? When you have no money, stuff
- 2:35you pay for. We've got to get it allegiance
- 2:37consurely. I'm not so sure we will this
- 2:40year. I don't think so, no, just
- 2:42judging. By the updates.
- 2:43Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I wouldn't, I just wouldn't,
- 2:46I wouldn't go there with the with those hopes.
- 2:49Just be happily surprised if we do.
- 2:51But I think it's going to be more like India.
- 2:53You're judging by what's on the website at the moment.
- 2:55So, but apparently it is in production.
- 2:59They they, but they still have some figures that they're
- 3:02working at Kingston and they're running production and obviously
- 3:05the ones that they can go ahead with so that everything can kind
- 3:08of move as soon as it moves. But Rich, you were missing the
- 3:12last few episodes, so maybe you can fill the listeners in on
- 3:17what happened and how we. Yeah, it's it's, but that's a
- 3:23tailor boat basically. I just got really fed up a
- 3:26YouTube just like, Nah, I'm not going to do it.
- 3:29I'm taking two weeks off bollocks here.
- 3:32I must do that. There'd be no podcast.
- 3:35Yeah, but you imagine John's not available.
- 3:39Rich, we. No, no, let's not bother this
- 3:41week. No, it was, it was the day that
- 3:48my daughter was deemed the worst birthday party ever.
- 3:52So we went, you're welcome to. Yeah, we went to a swimming pool
- 3:56that had water slides and all that sort of stuff.
- 3:58And I was walking to the first slide and I said, oh, the
- 4:00floor's a bit slippy. You know, looking at the tiles,
- 4:02there's like no grip on the tiles at all.
- 4:04So that's fine. Just walk slowly.
- 4:06Made it to the slide, went down the slide, all good.
- 4:09Go off the slide. Just they're going right, which
- 4:11is the shortest way to get back there because this forward's a
- 4:13bit slippy. Put one foot forward, foot went
- 4:15from me. I upside down, landed right on
- 4:18my head. Not myself that cold.
- 4:21Next thing I remember is I'm trying to lift my head up and I
- 4:24can't and I literally can't lift it up.
- 4:26It feels so heavy, it's like. Oh, this isn't good.
- 4:28Oh my. God, and then rolled myself onto
- 4:32all, all fours and I was like, something's not right here.
- 4:36Why is my head? I put my hands to the back of my
- 4:37head, pulled it back and it was just covered in blood, just like
- 4:41absolutely matted in blood. I was like, OK.
- 4:43At which point I hear my daughter crying because she's
- 4:46come down the slide behind me. So he's seen the aftermath of
- 4:49this. So I'm thinking like, OK, I'm,
- 4:52I'm bleeding a lot here. I've no idea what's going on.
- 4:55Yeah, but I'm shouting to her going I'm OK, don't worry, I'm
- 4:58OK, don't worry. You know.
- 4:59Well, my blood going all. She thought I was throwing up
- 5:02blood. So she got really distressed and
- 5:03I was like, I'm fine, don't worry, don't worry.
- 5:05At which point the staff arrived and the staff were brilliant.
- 5:08I mean, the place is a death trap, but the staff were great.
- 5:12They were, they were extremely helpful.
- 5:15There's a 16 year old called Levi or Levy who like put a
- 5:20support thing on the back of my head.
- 5:21Sorry I'm slightly out of sinking.
- 5:22This is weird. Like a bandage in the back of my
- 5:25head got me into the recovery position sort of thing.
- 5:29Meanwhile I'm lying there looking as the pool of blood
- 5:31just keeps spreading wide and wider because it's like water on
- 5:35the floor as well. So obviously head bleeds a lot.
- 5:37Anyway, water makes it spread. So I mean it's, it's an abattoir
- 5:40at this point. There's just blood everywhere.
- 5:44And then this guy comes over and he's like, oh hi, I'm a
- 5:46paramedic. I just didn't pull my family.
- 5:48Do you need any help? And they were, they were like,
- 5:50yes, please, yes, please. So, so he does the, you know,
- 5:53what's your name? What's, what's the date, what
- 5:55you're here for? And then did a few cognitive
- 5:58tests. So like getting my fingers and
- 5:59going, can you push against me and all this sort of stuff.
- 6:02And he's like, OK, so I don't think there's any like,
- 6:04traumatic brain injuries or anything.
- 6:06But, you know, he sort of looked at him.
- 6:07He's like, yeah, you've got a good old cut on the back of your
- 6:09head there. So at which point my wife, who'd
- 6:13been sitting in the the viewing area, not seen any of this, but
- 6:19somebody gone out and said this is where.
- 6:20You should have been. Which is where I should have
- 6:22been in hindsight. Yes.
- 6:23She comes in. So then I see the look on her
- 6:25face as she walks into the abattoir.
- 6:28She's like, Oh my God, are you OK?
- 6:29And I'm like, I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry.
- 6:32Well, I'm thinking like, I hope I'm fine.
- 6:33The paramedics seems confident. So, OK, fingers crossed.
- 6:38So, so they get me onto my feet, get me into the first aid room,
- 6:41at which point the blood's eased off a little bit, but it's still
- 6:44pouring out. So they're like changing the
- 6:46bandage and all this sort of stuff.
- 6:48And then they ring an ambulance. And the ambulance people were
- 6:52like, oh, yeah, it can be like minimum hour and a half,
- 6:54probably longer. At which point my wife just says
- 6:58to this paramedic, she's like, can I just take him to A&E
- 7:02myself? And he's like, yeah, he's, he
- 7:03said, you know, soon you start the bleeding.
- 7:05Take him because you know, there's no brain injuries as far
- 7:07as I can tell. So she takes me to A&E.
- 7:10So I'm sat there for took a three hour A&E visit, came out
- 7:15of A&E with eight staples holding a 3 1/2 inch wound at
- 7:18the back of my head together. We put these staples and I'm not
- 7:23putting them on the screen in our YouTube because it's just
- 7:26not family viewing whatsoever. Yeah, apologies if anyone's
- 7:29squeamish and hasn't passed out during the stage, But yeah, I
- 7:32left with eight staples, but they put 11 in and had to put
- 7:34three out because they didn't go in properly.
- 7:39And after they put the staples in, they were like, oh, do you
- 7:41want some pain medication? They'd give me like gas and air,
- 7:43like trying to strike. Me a little bit and they.
- 7:45Were like, do you want some pain medication?
- 7:47I was like, bloody right. I want some pain medication.
- 7:51Give me super strong painkillers.
- 7:55OK, That's fine. And then they're like, oh, the
- 7:57back of your head's a mess, though.
- 7:57We're going to need to wash your hair because it's just mattered
- 8:01in blood, completely mattered in blood.
- 8:02So we need to to wash your hair. So it's I'm still like off it on
- 8:06painkillers and, you know, yeah, looking like Frankenstein's
- 8:09monster. So I get get to this, this
- 8:11thing, sit down and she's like, OK, just just pop your head back
- 8:13like you would if you were in a hairdressers into the sink for
- 8:15me to watch it. And I was like, when's the last
- 8:17time you think I went to the hairdressers?
- 8:19Seriously, which she thought was hilarious in the 80s Yeah.
- 8:26Yeah. So then they sent me on my way.
- 8:27And then, yeah, the next day I'd like just concussion symptoms
- 8:30for a few days. So I was off work.
- 8:31Like, this was on Saturday, so obviously Sunday wasn't working
- 8:33anyway. Then was off work Monday,
- 8:35Tuesday, Wednesday. Finally felt well enough to work
- 8:37on Thursday sort of thing. Obviously couldn't podcast with
- 8:40you guys. And I'm still feeling so rough
- 8:41the following week. It's like, no, I'm just going to
- 8:43give myself another, another week off.
- 8:45So yeah. So, All in all, the worst
- 8:47birthday party ever. Yeah.
- 8:49I'm sure all the people are hated me too because they had to
- 8:51close all the slides because I was bleeding, bleeding out on
- 8:53the floor in front of the slides.
- 8:55So yeah, it's sort of been really.
- 8:57Popular they need to sort out their, you know, put in some of
- 9:01these kind of rubberized floors kind of floor.
- 9:05Yes, when we got to A to the accident, I'm sorry, I keep
- 9:08saying any Americanism. I'm talking about the accident
- 9:10and emergency department. The lady was like, what have you
- 9:14done? I felt like going the bandage in
- 9:16my head. What do you think I've done?
- 9:17But I resisted. At that point.
- 9:19It's like, no, no, it's just fine.
- 9:20These people are here to help me.
- 9:22So I was like, I slipped at the the water park.
- 9:25And she's like, oh, that place. Oh, we get people in all the
- 9:27time from there. It's a death trap.
- 9:29And it's like, oh, brilliant. Great.
- 9:30OK, so they're filling up your A&E departments then.
- 9:33And the manager, turns out the manager had said to my wife, oh,
- 9:35yeah, we had a little girl slip over and crack her head a couple
- 9:37of weeks ago here. It's just like sorted out.
- 9:43Yeah. So that was that was really
- 9:44eventful. And then both my daughter and my
- 9:46wife both then came down with COVID 2 days later.
- 9:49So I was stuck in a different room.
- 9:51Two of them. Yeah.
- 9:52Having to like, you know, taking food and all this sort of stuff
- 9:55while not being able to rest in the back of my head on anything
- 9:57because I had staples sticking out of my head, which were there
- 10:00for a week and a half. So yeah, but it was right.
- 10:02I went to get, had them, finally had them out and walked into the
- 10:07nurses room to get them taken out in the local doctors.
- 10:10And she was like, I thought you were having staples out.
- 10:11And I was like, I am. And she's in the back of my
- 10:13head. She's like, oh, it's normally
- 10:14people had them in the hips or something.
- 10:16You know, there's like normally like 50, there's normally like
- 10:1850 to take out. You've only got what, eight?
- 10:20I was like, yeah, there's eight. You know, there's not too many.
- 10:22She's like, oh great. She's like, oh, I find this
- 10:23really therapy and it's not, yeah, she's like, I find this
- 10:26really therapeutic, pulling these things out as she gets the
- 10:29equivalent of what is an office staple remover out to take these
- 10:33things that the hospital in Wales had actually given me my
- 10:36own one in a sealed plastic bag because they didn't trust the
- 10:38English NHS to have one. So I gave them to that.
- 10:41So they've got a spare one down there now.
- 10:43So she's pinging these things out having having assured me it
- 10:45wouldn't hurt. And I'm like, ow, ow, ow.
- 10:49And I'm thinking might well it's not as painful as we went in,
- 10:50that's something. But it's like, Jesus Christ on
- 10:53the bottom. Wow.
- 10:54Yeah, So, but I'm back. So when you see, just just run
- 10:59around the back of him and you'll see some battle damage.
- 11:02Yeah, there's going to be, there's going to be a scar.
- 11:04The nurse reckons it wouldn't be too big a scar.
- 11:06I'm not convinced at the moment, I have to admit, but we'll.
- 11:09Tell you what, it'd be bloody amazing if there's no scar after
- 11:13what I've seen. Yeah, one of my.
- 11:15Even from the staples. Yeah, well, one of my guys about
- 11:19to say, one of my colleagues laughing at me today, she came
- 11:20up and stood behind me while I was sat down and she's like, oh,
- 11:22I can see all the holes where the staples are in your head.
- 11:25They're scabbing, too. I was like, oh, I guess that's
- 11:28funny, OK. Yeah, that's not funny.
- 11:33It's funny now, but it's not funny at work.
- 11:35Yeah, yes. So, yeah.
- 11:38So that's why I've been missing for a couple of weeks.
- 11:39Yeah, well, I, I think that was a good excuse.
- 11:42You know, you're not going to get, you're not going to get
- 11:47fired for for that sort of behaviour.
- 11:49You know that's. No, that's.
- 11:51The reason you know that won't go on your record as a as a as a
- 11:57four par. No, When I finally made it into
- 12:00the office, first day in, I had a like a little plaster on it
- 12:03sort of thing still. And then the the next day I was
- 12:05in, the plaster would come off. And so there's no staples.
- 12:08Plaster would come off and suddenly went, can I see what
- 12:11the staples looked like? And I was like, yeah, I brought
- 12:13up a picture and he's like, oh, cool, cool.
- 12:15All right. Yeah.
- 12:15And then a couple of people said, oh, can we see it?
- 12:17So I was like, you sure? It's quite gory, and you guys
- 12:19have seen it, so you know what it's like.
- 12:20Yeah. Yeah.
- 12:21I showed in the picture. People are like, oh, my God.
- 12:25OK. Rich is responsible for more
- 12:30people having to leave the office.
- 12:31Yes. Oh.
- 12:33My God. So yeah, that's.
- 12:35Well, you know, it's an interesting story.
- 12:37It's definitely something that is we was was worth telling on
- 12:41the podcast because you know, these things happen and that's
- 12:44how accident prone rich is. You know, it's like he said to
- 12:47me on two or three days ago, I said, oh, why don't we do a
- 12:49little, you know, a little post or something, you know, to
- 12:52promote this episode, you know, the predictions.
- 12:54I said no way judge of my accident prone you are we we
- 12:59need this in the can before we do any.
- 13:00Promote In my defense I am accident prone, but to quote the
- 13:05receptionist to the hospital, that place is a death trap.
- 13:08Yes, just saying. But the fact that, you know, I
- 13:11would have been sat outside, Mal would have been sat outside, you
- 13:15know, on his phone, passing the time, scrolling through pictures
- 13:19on the kebab. Yeah.
- 13:20Oh yeah, I'm I'm accident prone but ballsy.
- 13:21It's a bad combination. Yeah, now I do still go on the,
- 13:28you know, the the roller coasters and stuff if I go with
- 13:30the kids to a theme park. But yeah, I think I draw the
- 13:34line at a water park, you know, definitely the annoying.
- 13:38The annoying thing is the one slider went on, which apparently
- 13:40it was the slowest of the three member Staff told me while I was
- 13:42blind they're bleeding. It was brilliant.
- 13:45It's all God damn it. OK.
- 13:46Thanks for that too. Yeah.
- 13:50What were they kind of these tube things or were they kind of
- 13:52big open? Yeah, completely.
- 13:54No. Completely sealed tube things,
- 13:55yeah. My wife won't go in them, she's
- 13:59claustrophobic for them. Yes, yeah, my wife's just saying
- 14:02she's like, no happening. Yeah, even the, you know, the
- 14:06kind of basic one that you might see at a kind of local pool or
- 14:09whatever. No, no way.
- 14:13Righty. Oh, shall we get into a few more
- 14:15things? And our friend of the show,
- 14:18David Williams, he is designing the pins for Allegiance Con.
- 14:24The first two we've seen anyway, the mythic ones, I put them up
- 14:28here on screen for YouTube viewers.
- 14:32So subscribe and follow and like and all that stuff if you're
- 14:36looking on there. And I think this week, Rich's
- 14:40screen, Rich's thing seems to be slightly out of sync.
- 14:42So don't blame me. I'll try and sync it up but I
- 14:44don't think it'll work. It's just it's just lagging for
- 14:49some reason on stream, your stream here.
- 14:51It has been a bit dodgy recently and they have new owners so I'm
- 14:55a little bit worried for the future, but there will be other
- 14:58platforms, you know, so let's see how it goes if anything.
- 15:01John, this just makes me, this just makes me unpredictable.
- 15:04What's he going to do? Yeah.
- 15:05Exactly. You're going to crack.
- 15:06A funny joke, and then we'll 10 seconds later we'll seem falling
- 15:09about laughing his own joke, yeah.
- 15:11Well, I won't be looking at you for reactions to my jokes that
- 15:14we, you know, because to be a delay or something.
- 15:17So anyway, Dave Williams has done 2 designs so far that we've
- 15:21seen for the pins. So it's for the Chris and George
- 15:26Regents configures. Do you remember what they
- 15:27recall? Do there's the gasp.
- 15:30Are the unamused yes or something like that ungorged?
- 15:33The unpredictable. So this is the Gaspar one, then
- 15:36this one and the one with the antlers.
- 15:39So that's the Warthog head is the Gaspar and the one with the
- 15:41antlers is the George, which is the No sorry is the crisp.
- 15:48No, that's the crisp one. Yeah yeah, the unpredictable.
- 15:53So yeah, very cool designs. I think I saw him post somewhere
- 15:57that, uh, he might, umm, he or maybe hint that these mightn't
- 16:03be the last ones we see religions come from him.
- 16:05So I think he's probably got the gig for them all.
- 16:08Let's just assume that and be proven wrong if so.
- 16:12But they're really nice designs are, especially for pins, really
- 16:15good. Love the shading.
- 16:17Yeah, these are the light. He's such a good line drawer.
- 16:20These are really fabulous designs.
- 16:23Really good yet? Yeah.
- 16:27All righty. And I'm such a giggler.
- 16:29Yeah, he doesn't need yet. Now we don't get his opinion
- 16:32because he is dropped off for sex.
- 16:34So maybe we'll wait for a second, see if Mal comes back.
- 16:40I'm back there. He.
- 16:40Is hey Mal, are you remote? Controlling him, John, you.
- 16:43If you said that, then you all. Right.
- 16:48Now may have forgotten to turn the power on.
- 16:53Didn't realize the battery was so low.
- 16:56So, Mal is that we won't blame Stream Yard for that one.
- 16:59That's no, no, the IT guy forgetting to plug it in.
- 17:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What do you any opinions on
- 17:06these badges other than I think anything further?
- 17:09Yeah, I think they look. Great, I'll I'll try and grab
- 17:11some eh legions come, but it was a bit difficult last year,
- 17:14wasn't it, with well, so so. Might be my two legions come so
- 17:18far. The last two ones, eh?
- 17:20So there was the Furious 4 ones. They were just gone because the
- 17:23queue was. You couldn't really stand in the
- 17:26queue for five hours just for pins.
- 17:29That queue didn't work. And then last year the queues
- 17:32were fine, but they hadn't got delivery of the pins so you had
- 17:36to buy them from Legion's shop. That's that, that was, yeah.
- 17:42That wasn't great for international because the
- 17:44shipping wasn't nearly half the price of the pins, so decided to
- 17:47skip on them. So hopefully this year they'll
- 17:50have the pins and they won't be so difficult to get.
- 17:54I think if they have as much as they seem to have had for the
- 17:59the this year's previous pins are the most recent year's pins,
- 18:02then we should be able to get them because I don't think the
- 18:07two characters. Sorry, Bridget, I was just.
- 18:10Going to say, sorry, John. I was going to say with the two
- 18:12characters they've got, I think if you do get the pins, I don't
- 18:15like the pins. But if you guys do one on each
- 18:16shoulder like a little devil and a little Angel, and it's like
- 18:21George, sensible Angel, Chris the crazy little devil, and it's
- 18:24like that's how you have to wear the pins.
- 18:26That's it, Yeah, that's a good tactic actually.
- 18:28And the cosmic ones, I love the cosmic especially.
- 18:32I'm really good. These Legions con figures are
- 18:35really grown on me. I always, I think stretch from
- 18:37the Bat liked the cosmic ones, but these are the ones.
- 18:42The mythic ones are growing on me for sure.
- 18:45And the Gorge one, which I was probably least enthusiastic
- 18:48about, now that his colour scheme kind of matches in with
- 18:52the heavy gunner, to see things there that you know.
- 18:57Yeah. And and just you can do a bit
- 19:00more with those parts and then we have parts from Bardrick and
- 19:03Crotos, you know if you have one of those or an extra one of
- 19:07those lying around. So yeah, it could be doing a
- 19:10lot. So anyway, well done, David.
- 19:11We will obviously, if there is the, if there is the cosmic pins
- 19:17to show in the next week or two, we will certainly be talking
- 19:21about them. And I believe he hinted in a, in
- 19:25a reply to someone on the post that he might be involved in the
- 19:28other two. I guess he might be.
- 19:31So that would be fun. And then we had this little
- 19:37fella revealed Skeleton Legion Builder 2.
- 19:41So we got a kind of cryptic post with just the Horseman logo and
- 19:46the slight little green greenish black background saying
- 19:49something cool is coming for again for celebrating the 25th
- 19:55anniversary of four Horsemen Studios.
- 19:57And this is what was revealed along with an in stock sale that
- 20:03we're we'll talk about next. But let's talk about this guy
- 20:05first. So Skeleton Legion builder two
- 20:09very cool special Source Horsemen store.
- 20:13Horsemen release in July 2024 to celebrate 25th anniversary of
- 20:17Four Horsemen. And the 10 year anniversary, of
- 20:19course, of mythic legions. And that's a bare bones
- 20:24skeleton. Not as in bare bones, you know,
- 20:26as in you don't get much with it.
- 20:28As in it's just all bone, just the way she likes it.
- 20:34And and you get a sword and shield and a spear.
- 20:39You don't get additional heads, but the head you get is the
- 20:43articulate jaw skeleton head. So that's the best one for this
- 20:47type of figure, I think. So really cool.
- 20:51And we'll come back to the bio in a SEC, Mal.
- 20:55Let's just have a quick look at the pictures.
- 20:57And so you see him there with the spear.
- 21:00The shield is weathered in that kind of patina weathering.
- 21:04So that's pretty sweet. And you get a nice little strap
- 21:08and sword as well. You get a couple of hands with
- 21:13them. You also and they didn't don't
- 21:15photograph them here. And I wonder if that was the
- 21:16kind of little surprise you also get like a pair of these
- 21:19pointing skeleton bone fingers. A couple of people get them.
- 21:25And I watched Jesse Arnold today do an unboxing video of it on
- 21:30their channel. They just shot the channel.
- 21:32I think it was a members only video.
- 21:35And he said, yeah, he showed the little baggy and the pointed
- 21:40hands were in it. So that's really cool because
- 21:43they really give a lot of posing, eh, kind of personality
- 21:47figure well. Jeremy said that quite often
- 21:51when they get sent EH. Well, the skeleton figures eh?
- 21:56Like test shots and things from the EH factory, they always seem
- 21:59to give them the pointing fingers.
- 22:00So finger guns. OK, well, cool.
- 22:06Maybe that mold is maybe that mold is just quite quite in
- 22:13quite a commonly used bold, I don't know with other parts.
- 22:15So that may be why pointing. Finger is great idea.
- 22:18I'm going to have to use one of these now.
- 22:20Some sort of champion just pointing to somebody at the
- 22:22other end. Bring it you.
- 22:26You know, like when we got the hands packs first, it just adds
- 22:29so much to the figures and you know, you got the you bare human
- 22:32hands and the goblin hands and the orcans, they all added a lot
- 22:38more. And obviously you get the
- 22:39leather gloved hands, but with the different types of hand
- 22:44expressions. For want of a better way of
- 22:46putting it, this is a cool little kind of collage photo of
- 22:52a couple of photos from Trevor's little pack that he had on the
- 22:56site. And this is no, this is their
- 22:58collage. It's on the site.
- 23:00So just a lot of different poses of the skeleton.
- 23:04Show them what you can do. So yeah, I think we're going to
- 23:08have fun with this guy. I would say he's the Valiant
- 23:11Knight of the skeletons so far. You know, we've got the Valiant
- 23:13Knight now is a little bit of extra possibility in the
- 23:17articulation. There isn't any more
- 23:19articulation points, I don't think, but there is more
- 23:22movement in the articulation. So it's pretty cool.
- 23:28Sorry, just to lower the tone for a second, and it's probably
- 23:30because I watched Deadpool and Wolverine last night, but the
- 23:33skeleton on the right of the screen as we're looking at it
- 23:35looks like he's about to shove his spear where the sun doesn't
- 23:38shine on one scratch. Isn't he?
- 23:39Yeah. Yeah, yeah, whatever, sorry,
- 23:43whatever. Whatever they enjoy, we are not.
- 23:49Yeah, I'll be a. Tagline Map The Euro Allegiance
- 23:53podcast. They don't kink shame.
- 23:55Whatever they enjoy. So anyway, there you go.
- 23:59You see the articulation there and of course Mr. Trevor
- 24:04Williams with his environment photo.
- 24:08This doesn't sell you on a skeleton figure.
- 24:11You don't want it. These were quite popular, sold
- 24:16out in a couple of hours. The horseman's guess was the the
- 24:20figure would last about 24 hours.
- 24:22It lasted probably four of those 24.
- 24:24I think maybe someone might come on now and say no, it was only
- 24:28two and I missed it and blah, blah, blah.
- 24:30But. I think he was literally 2.
- 24:32Two. OK, two, which is still.
- 24:33Plenty of time, anybody that wanted to get it any 2 is.
- 24:36Plenty as well. Yeah, two is plenty in terms of
- 24:40if you were there at the start and you really wanted it.
- 24:44I was in the middle of a traffic jam and I were looking for,
- 24:46because I was driving looking for a on the way back from the
- 24:50holidays, looking for a petrol stop or whatever, a rest stop.
- 24:55And luckily found one about 10 minutes before 5:00 my time,
- 24:59which was when it was going up five and managed to order them.
- 25:03So, you know, otherwise my wife would have been trying to order
- 25:07them and that would have been a tough one.
- 25:11I was in the pub and managed to order.
- 25:13It's not. Yeah, you were about four pints
- 25:15deep, weren't you? Yeah.
- 25:17Was it fantasy football draft or something it?
- 25:20Was yeah, an extremely good evening with extremely strong
- 25:24beer because I had. My phone up as the SAT NAV and I
- 25:27just kept seeing these messages. Yeah.
- 25:33So lasted long enough, like, because, you know, the site's
- 25:36not boogie either. You know, it's not like the old
- 25:38days where you have to sit there and kind of wait two hours for
- 25:41your order to go through this. You literally could go on in
- 25:45order and it was limited to four.
- 25:47So it's not like somebody, no, of course somebody could get
- 25:50their mate that doesn't collect down the road to order four as
- 25:53well. But you know, that's a bit of
- 25:55work. So, you know, you know, if they
- 25:57want to do that, they wanted we could all do that, I think to an
- 26:00extent. Yeah.
- 26:04So this book would be available in slightly different shading on
- 26:09the bone. They're more of what they call
- 26:11standard bone color. This is a lighter bone color,
- 26:13but still not totally light because from what I've seen of
- 26:16the in hand pictures, it's it only looks really light when
- 26:20it's beside the other skeleton, the Maxillus.
- 26:23You know, this actually looks probably like bone color.
- 26:27You might paint paint a custom figure with a black wash, you
- 26:30know, over a kind of a an off white.
- 26:32So really nice figure. And then we had the big sale,
- 26:39which was obviously that 26th of July and there was a lot of
- 26:45stuff up there. They had skull man as well,
- 26:47standard skull man. So that was that was limited to
- 26:51one per. So you would already got the
- 26:54exclusive version Mal I think of the skull man.
- 26:56So I had yes. So you didn't order the second
- 27:01one? I did.
- 27:03You did OK Yeah, yeah. Because my exclusive one is in
- 27:06box and not being removed from that box.
- 27:08OK, so you're. Going to sell one you're going
- 27:10on to display. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 27:12Perfect. Perfect, Demistrauss was there
- 27:15again that I got to him just because it's such a great base
- 27:20for doing customs. And the Cape is spectacular as
- 27:25well. It's worth the price of it
- 27:26alone. And then you had all the Legion
- 27:33builders, the Walters. You.
- 27:37Had a couple of Alithea figures, the horses basically in the
- 27:41centre. You had the deluxe legion
- 27:45builder Wave and Phobus as well from Alithea as well as No I'd
- 27:56say that's not for. That's Boris, isn't it?
- 27:58Yes, Boris is yeah, and skateboard decks All Star, not
- 28:03my thing, but you know, if you if you if it is your thing,
- 28:07absolutely awesome for you. They had a couple of all in
- 28:10narrators in box. So these are obviously people.
- 28:14Maybe the share or that they ordered a couple of extra maybe
- 28:20and you know, either came back undelivered or I don't know how
- 28:24it works, but maybe they have a few extra all insurance just for
- 28:27themselves. And they were they're gone.
- 28:32That was a great opportunity, but they went very quickly.
- 28:33I think they were like, you know, gone in 60 seconds or 30
- 28:36seconds jobby So, but there was a I'm sure there's a small pool
- 28:39of people who were in for that and some people definitely got
- 28:43happy for it. All Stars or so that's the one
- 28:47with the forest troll, the Motu tributes, the bridefighters and
- 28:51the Mephitor scaffold. O Wayne, Tibius and Vitas That
- 28:56was still there the other day. I think it's probably still
- 28:59there now. So good deal on their All Stars
- 29:045 as well. I plus they called it, but it's
- 29:07All Stars 5. Some great figures in there.
- 29:09Doban and Sidonian guard the heads back.
- 29:13All great figures if swig, but they had swig on his own as
- 29:18well. I think reinforcements all in as
- 29:21well. That's a great deal and a couple
- 29:24of limited all insurance on a Lithia as well, which is also
- 29:28quite an, I mean Arthur's older, but there's another one where
- 29:31there's a few figures that are hard to get these days.
- 29:33So I think there was a great opportunity for people there and
- 29:37still is. I guess they probably disappear
- 29:42from the website and this week before, yeah, they're going to.
- 29:47Go down before it goes up. Yeah.
- 29:50Yeah, that makes sense, doesn't it?
- 29:54And although it. Does yeah, the All Stars, the
- 29:57All Stars 5 plus All In is still available if everybody wants
- 29:59that as well. Jeremy did point out and I don't
- 30:02know if you noticed when you're on there though, that now they
- 30:05actually have different areas on the website and they did in
- 30:10stock and they've got a pre-order section or they've got
- 30:14shop everything. So they may well keep.
- 30:17It may be for situations like this where they want to keep the
- 30:20in stock sale up and do the pre-order for people.
- 30:24Wow so umm this is what they still have up.
- 30:28This is uh Wednesday the 31st of July, umm, so still have All
- 30:36Stars 5 plus all in umm, Apharius Boreus umm all the
- 30:42deluxe legion builders are still there.
- 30:44The mistress is still there gold and all the reinforcements.
- 30:49So those legion builders reinforcements too and all the
- 30:53legions con exclusives from last year.
- 30:55So Vargas and the two Walters and the swigs.
- 31:00So the 1000 swigs still can't get rid of him and the ogre
- 31:04scale accessory packs. So it's without the ogre.
- 31:06So maybe not interesting if you don't have the ogre, but could
- 31:13be pretty good as well if you just want to some that shield or
- 31:17something like that. And you know, you could trade
- 31:19the parts with some of the people or you could use them on
- 31:23another ogre like the green ogre that's still up there.
- 31:28So yeah, pretty good, right? Anything else news wise?
- 31:34No. Or shall we go into the main
- 31:38part of the show, the cosmic Legions?
- 31:40We are good with that, Geoffrey. Can I just apologise before we
- 31:42do that to anybody looking, anybody watching, but I look
- 31:45like Magnum Pi with my shirt and done so wide.
- 31:48It's it's 80. It's 83° here today, which for
- 31:52the UK is beeping warm. So I'm struggling to stay cool.
- 31:56So apologies, we have to stare at my chest.
- 31:58We don't. Generally have air con either do
- 32:00we and we have brick nailings rather than.
- 32:04Is the, is the he whacking off your mic as well or is that just
- 32:09you? That's probably me.
- 32:14OK, just clarifying, right? Uh, so I will, I will play the
- 32:19transition into the next part. And and for the listeners, there
- 32:24will also be the story the, the Korganox 7024 or 7 or 324, the
- 32:32most recent one that Jeremy put up and then we will talk about
- 32:36our predictions. Gorgonock's log entry seven O
- 33:053.24. The Camp.
- 33:08Is so quiet and yet so much is happening.
- 33:12Orvar regained consciousness shortly after the others left,
- 33:17and it appears that he will be fine.
- 33:21That is the good news. But in a somewhat distressing
- 33:25turn of events, once Orvar could speak, he informed us that it
- 33:30was not Thraxians who had attacked him and Thria, It was
- 33:34actually a group of what he described as Wasteland nomads in
- 33:39Tusk gear. We now believe that Kern Ray
- 33:44lied to us, which means that Belloc and COG willingly went
- 33:49away with the group that attacked our friends and
- 33:52abducted Thraya. We are.
- 33:56Obviously very concerned about this information, but Ularia
- 34:00pointed out that they did return Orvar to us.
- 34:04They could have left him for dead and blamed it on Thraxians,
- 34:08but they brought him back to our camp.
- 34:11If their intentions were genuinely malicious, why would
- 34:15they spare his life? This gives us hope that our
- 34:19friends have a chance of returning to us soon.
- 34:23Ularia instructed me to tune my instruments to search for nearby
- 34:27transmissions, hoping that we could intercept something from
- 34:32the strangers. We had seen a rudimentary Calm
- 34:37set up on their Rover along with some other gear, so Ellaria
- 34:41guessed that they may be using the com box to communicate with
- 34:45others in their group. For the.
- 34:48Past few clicks I've been alternating between broadcasting
- 34:52our distress signal outside of planet Traxxon and scanning
- 34:57terrestrial frequencies to try and learn something about the
- 35:01strangers. Finally.
- 35:04I got something. It was a coded message.
- 35:08But it was a basic cipher and I translated it pretty quickly,
- 35:13the message read. Target acquired one other guest
- 35:17on board. Rover is loaded and on the way.
- 35:23Harrow zone entry soon. Hostiles anticipated.
- 35:29Support requested. A short.
- 35:32Time later a reply came across. Message received.
- 35:37The first group has returned. Science officer is secured.
- 35:43Hostiles confirmed across the horizon.
- 35:46Be ready. The final message that I
- 35:49intercepted read. Hunters engaged pursuing us now.
- 35:55High Lore and Jobra taking defensive measures.
- 36:00Guests are also helping fight back.
- 36:03We. Underestimated the numbers of
- 36:05hunters. Support requested immediately.
- 36:09We are not sure what to make of these messages.
- 36:13The Harrow Zone they refer to is the name that the strangers used
- 36:17for a stretch of wasteland that they said runs from the area
- 36:21where our camp is located to where their settlement is on the
- 36:25northern side of Thraxen. We know that is where they were
- 36:28headed in their Rover, but. These.
- 36:30Messages seem to state that they have been attacked along the
- 36:33way, which has added to our fear and uncertainty over our
- 36:37friend's safety. Orvar suggested that we should
- 36:40follow them. But he is.
- 36:42Really in no condition to go anywhere.
- 36:45And. Ellaria shut down his suggestion
- 36:47immediately by reminding him that we need to continue trying
- 36:51to make a connection with XR3. To arrange.
- 36:55For a rescue, He began to argue his point, but then a response
- 36:59came in our signal. The reply to our distressed
- 37:02signal was garbled. But less.
- 37:05So than our previous reply, Ularia instructed me to run a
- 37:09trace on the message, which I did.
- 37:11I discovered that the message is coming to us from a great
- 37:14distance, which means they are still far away from Traxim,
- 37:18likely on the edge of the third or maybe even somewhere in the
- 37:205th. I was.
- 37:22Able to identify the associated designation of the responding
- 37:25frequency. Unfortunately, it is more bad
- 37:30news. The signal.
- 37:32Is coming from a Tusk vessel. I am just a calm officer for a
- 37:37crew of Junkers. So I don't.
- 37:39Pay much mind to the dramas out there beyond my own job, but
- 37:45even I know that XR3 stays away from any kind of Tusk
- 37:49involvements. Word is.
- 37:52That the Traders Union. Has been trying to bring a three
- 37:55under their control for years and they don't take too kindly
- 37:59to XR3 refusing those deals. I know it is a bit off topic for
- 38:03this log entry and I will probably hear it from Veloc when
- 38:06he returns and reads this, but I think it is somewhat relevant
- 38:09since the Traders Union vessel is the one answering our
- 38:12distress signal. I asked Dilaria if I should
- 38:17respond. It is a.
- 38:19Sign of how desperate we are that she gave me her approval.
- 38:23We have transmitted our coordinates to the Tusk vessel
- 38:27and asked them to come rescue us from Thraxen.
- 38:31Hopefully our friends will be safe in the Harrow Zone or
- 38:34wherever the strangers are bringing them and they will be
- 38:37back at camp soon. In the meantime we await the
- 38:41arrival of the Traders Union. We did receive another reply
- 38:45from our would be rescuers which simply stated confirmed
- 38:51coordinates received, retrieval underway, expected arrival in
- 38:58plus -12 cycles and now we wait. Distress signal XR3 vessel
- 39:06designation Korgenox awaiting incoming assistance.
- 39:12Current location equals Traxim, current status equals. 6
- 39:16surviving. Crew members split across
- 39:19multiple locations, unsure of current safety status.
- 39:24Native contact maid, multiple species.
- 39:29Calm band reply received. Evacuation imminent.
- 40:18The Arrow Zone, that does sound like a scary place, doesn't it?
- 40:22Yeah, it does. So we had Oxbrook crew book two,
- 40:26the Arrow Zone. So that's this upcoming
- 40:29Saturday, 8:00 PM EST, and that's two.
- 40:33That's two in the morning for me.
- 40:34I think 1:00 in the morning for you guys.
- 40:36Yeah. So we did our our little kind of
- 40:39watch along audio thing through Discord the last time.
- 40:44We'll try and do that again, but no guarantee.
- 40:47Speakers, I am out all day Saturday at a christening and I
- 40:51don't know how that will go, but my wife is the godmother, so
- 40:56going to have to stick around for most of it.
- 40:58And so how I'll be at 2:00 in the morning is another thing I
- 41:02don't know. But Rich's plan to stay up
- 41:05Malice also I think in a similar boat to me, yes.
- 41:08I'm out for a mate's birthday. Say a lot a.
- 41:12Pretty. Good period of day drinking will
- 41:14have gone on before and if it's warm, I might not have a choice.
- 41:18I might just, yeah. So we see, obviously we will
- 41:24publicize it to the patrons if we're going to do it or if it's
- 41:28if it's working out and it's easy enough to connect if that's
- 41:32the case. It was definitely fun the last
- 41:35time. I'd love to do it, but you know,
- 41:36two in the morning is the last time it was at midnight for me.
- 41:39So that was really doable. This time it's a little bit
- 41:43later. So anyway, the the Harrow zone,
- 41:46so we had the Oscar book one, which was the the kind of ma
- 41:52couple of main people from the ship.
- 41:55Yeah, I got the Curran Ray. You got the Traxion Scout, which
- 41:58gave rich lizard excitement. So whatever that means.
- 42:05And obviously Kern Ray was fantastic.
- 42:09I think the highlight of that wave, even in hindsight, you
- 42:12got, you know, the boots, the kind of two vastly different
- 42:16heads, the kind of helmeted head and the unhelmeted head.
- 42:20We didn't really know what kind of a character she was until you
- 42:24had the unhelmeted head and the skate back as well.
- 42:29This kind of kind of dog, desert dog, kind of spiky creature.
- 42:37So and obviously also terrain pack are kind of environment
- 42:42pack, accessories pack diopieces.
- 42:46So we're probably looking at more, more diopieces this time.
- 42:53We got a little hint today which was giving us comms pack kind of
- 43:03you could basically I think that's one of the diode pieces.
- 43:06Now it could be thrown us off, but I think you have you guys
- 43:10got diode pieces on your bingo list?
- 43:12I have. Including that one there.
- 43:14Yes, they've got. To this all set the thing now
- 43:18and they're with Cosmics and it's like you're going to have
- 43:20diabetes with it, yeah. This next to it almost looks
- 43:23like it could be another gun type of gun we're going to get
- 43:27as well, so I wonder if there'll be a mix of weapons and camp
- 43:31bits. Yeah, that could be, Yeah.
- 43:35I initially thought that we would get that a kind of a buggy
- 43:40thing, but I don't think we'd get a buggy thing and dial
- 43:44pieces in a wave. So now that we've got the kind
- 43:48of hint here, I'm more on the side of, OK, we're getting these
- 43:51diopies, which is awesome. I love the first ones.
- 43:54I think it's a good idea for them to build on the second ones
- 43:57and then suddenly you've got 2 packs and then you're like,
- 44:00whoa, I've got a lot of stuff here.
- 44:02I can really do a cool display without, you know, taking up two
- 44:06slots on the one wave, which I think would make people a bit
- 44:08better, you know? Yeah, no, I agree, John.
- 44:11I think, I think in my head I was like, oh, it's a 25th
- 44:13anniversary. They're going to give us a
- 44:14Rover. They're going to give us a
- 44:15little vehicle. Here we go.
- 44:17And. Then as you saw.
- 44:18This they could do, but I think I'm with you.
- 44:20I think because we've seen this now that it's more likely
- 44:22they'll just go down the excess. I say just I don't mean that a
- 44:24bad way. I don't go down the accessory
- 44:26pack. I think a vehicle would probably
- 44:28have to be in place of a couple of the figures if they were
- 44:31going to give it a small wave then I think they're trying to
- 44:33go for smaller, affordable in quotes waves aren't they with
- 44:37the Cosmics? I think so.
- 44:39Although this is the kind of main cosmic wave, I think
- 44:43they're going to do 1 main one yearly and another smaller one.
- 44:47I think that's a good, that's a good kind of cadence to be at.
- 44:53So, but yeah, I don't think they're going G Con level with
- 44:56the cosmic quite yet, you know, and that's going to be a while
- 44:59more. Not yet, no.
- 45:00This. Little antenna piece on the
- 45:02could that that looks like a piece that might be plug, plug
- 45:06in plug out which then you could see further uses for.
- 45:11Isn't it the bit that is on one of the figures in the OH is?
- 45:16It of the backpack maybe? Yeah, yeah, yeah, something.
- 45:20Yeah, you're. Right.
- 45:22Yeah, you're right. You're right.
- 45:25I should have had that ready. But yeah, you could be right.
- 45:29It's Kern, right? Yeah, Yeah.
- 45:31But those are the kind of things that you kind of be looking out
- 45:34for when you see when you see the the wave being revealed on
- 45:39the kind of new parts. And obviously.
- 45:43Yeah. So this is so the last cosmic
- 45:46wave was actually book one. OK.
- 45:49So that is quite a long time ago.
- 45:52It's pretty years, yeah. I'm hoping we get the awesome
- 45:58poster as well for book two that we got alongside book one,
- 46:03because I've really liked that and I kind of like to have the
- 46:07display of all three once all three books are done.
- 46:10So yeah. That would be sweet.
- 46:14Yeah. Here's here is the backpack on
- 46:17Kern. Ray, you're dead right now.
- 46:19It is the piece. Yeah, so still cool, but yeah,
- 46:26we have it up already. So Melania, what's your first?
- 46:30What's your first on your bingo card list for this wave, right?
- 46:34So I've been ridiculously excited about this and as you
- 46:37know, I've I've been a little bit forensic and like printing
- 46:40things off and going over it with a brightening them up and
- 46:44other people have brighten them up.
- 46:45But then I've brightened up even more and drawn circles around
- 46:47bits going this must be this and this one's it is.
- 46:51But yeah, but right. So I started mine with two
- 46:57obvious ones we're definitely going to get because we've got
- 46:59two, I think 1 new name and one we've been told before.
- 47:04And we got in the story that people will have just listened
- 47:08to. No, the first story wasn't it
- 47:12that we released last week. We get introduced to Thraya and
- 47:17we'd already previously, I'm sure, been introduced to Cog.
- 47:21So my first pick is we're getting Cog.
- 47:25We have to. He's such a central part of this
- 47:27story. Well, somewhat a central part
- 47:30into the story and that he's who that Kern Ray and her cronies
- 47:34want. And up until today I thought
- 47:38this was the guy in the cage. I didn't know how and it didn't
- 47:44quite fit with my thinking of what he was going to look like.
- 47:48You say OK, nothing. It's never simple, is it?
- 47:52Because I still think that in the cage looks a little bit like
- 47:56it could be slog shaped. But I don't think it's cog
- 48:01anymore, so I don't think it's a different colour escape pack.
- 48:07I don't think it's skate back. That was my.
- 48:09Feeling John Yeah, when I saw the head at the top, it's like
- 48:11different kind of skate back. Without going too much into what
- 48:13we talked about well, but I've got later on I think it's
- 48:17something wearing skate back bits because of.
- 48:22Yeah. But I think I thought this kind
- 48:24of little kind of piece there below the head going kind of
- 48:29horizontally was part of the figure, but now I think it is
- 48:32part of the cage. Might be in a cage.
- 48:35Yeah, that yeah, you could be right there.
- 48:37Umm, anyway, Cog, I think let's go back to Cog.
- 48:42I think Cog is going to be either the same race as slog,
- 48:47but healthy, or at least on the slog body.
- 48:52And my thinking there is it mentions he's big and he's got a
- 48:55big head. And actually if you look at that
- 48:58slog body, there's aspects of it that are very similar to the Ox
- 49:04crew armor, such as like the canisters on the chest and
- 49:08there's, you know, those plug in bits.
- 49:09So I think I remember. When we got some teases of the
- 49:12ox crew that we actually thought the slug body was being used for
- 49:16one of the figures and it was actually all of our then the
- 49:19dwarf scale or more dwarf scale I would say.
- 49:24Yeah, that's a good show. I had in my notes for Cog, I had
- 49:27that he's mechanic, a big head and stubborn, so yeah.
- 49:33Yeah, I've. I've got.
- 49:37Half of what Miles got here, and I'm not just saying that because
- 49:39I'm going, no. You might as well, but yeah.
- 49:43I think they'll use a slug body. It makes sense as Miles said
- 49:46it's he could easily get away. There's the same sort of
- 49:49spacesuit as the other ones have got.
- 49:52Please for the love of God though, let it be a different
- 49:54species if they just give us an unaffected slog.
- 49:58It's like it's the vast universe and we're getting like 10
- 50:00species repeated. Give us something new.
- 50:03I I. Do think he'll be different.
- 50:05I've just thought he could be similar.
- 50:06But I think he'll I don't think they'll use the same head again
- 50:09because they mentioned he's got a big head.
- 50:11So I think we will get a new head on on Cog.
- 50:14Yeah, yeah. And I'm hoping we get.
- 50:17And if it's on the slug body, it's it's a disc thing.
- 50:20So I think it's quite easy to, it's not easy, but it's just
- 50:23going to be 1 tooled piece to do.
- 50:26So a new tool, yes, but shouldn't be hugely complex.
- 50:30Apart from the sculpting part that obviously Eric will have to
- 50:33do. You know, he's good at that.
- 50:35We know he's got that, he's got that in his locker and I'm.
- 50:42Presuming he's going to come along with some sort of like big
- 50:44space wrench or something like that, just to identify him as
- 50:48the mechanic sort of thing, or a little toolbox or something to
- 50:51take with him. Yeah, cool.
- 50:55And what question for you guys? Yeah.
- 50:59What colour do you think his suit's going to be?
- 51:01Because obviously we had three different colour suits for the
- 51:03first three, So what colour are we thinking the suit's going to
- 51:06be? Give us yellow, give us a like a
- 51:09really hard color to paint. You know, yellow be awesome.
- 51:12I could see a. Mechanic suit being like a dirty
- 51:15yellow. We have, yeah.
- 51:16Yeah. With that, Yeah.
- 51:17We're greasy, kind of. Weathering, you know, he's he's
- 51:20he's now if he's a mechanic and he's like the size of slog, how
- 51:25is he getting under the ship to kind of do the the fiddly bits,
- 51:28you know, they're lifted. Lifted up on there, Yeah,
- 51:32that'll be something. Who does it while he's lifting
- 51:34it up as he just lifts in one hand?
- 51:40I think I think it might be a black seat.
- 51:41So we guess oil spill on whoever it's you know, you can't see it.
- 51:45He's like no a brilliant mechanic.
- 51:46What you're about. There's nothing on the oil rich.
- 51:48I. Just thought you like you like
- 51:50the little critters. So maybe he is a slog size, but
- 51:53he has a little critter dude to do all these little kind of, you
- 51:56know, small. It'll be fun bits.
- 51:57Oh, maybe. Everybody's, everybody thinks
- 52:01he's every thinks he's his big alien species.
- 52:04When no one's looking, the head pops up and this little little
- 52:07thing gets out and starts fiddling around and fixing stuff
- 52:09and then jumps back in the body suit that it's wearing.
- 52:12That would be awesome. Yeah, kind of like a crying
- 52:15brain thing, but you know, instead of a brain, it's just.
- 52:18That would be super. A little kind of.
- 52:20Ferrity, dude. Yeah, right.
- 52:22Yeah, Cog as well for me. Yeah.
- 52:24Big head, stubborn. I could definitely see him like
- 52:27that and I definitely see him as being a different scale to
- 52:33Ularia and he's. Definitely just read him in the.
- 52:39Story today and he's gone out of my head.
- 52:43I got him veloc veloc. He's I think if we're wrong
- 52:51about the slog body, he's definitely going to be on an
- 52:54ogre scale body, I think. But I just get.
- 52:57This feeling, it's going to be that slug body do we have.
- 53:00We don't have. Oh well, the one we have in
- 53:04Cosmic is broodscale. Pretty this name.
- 53:07Yeah, yeah, yeah. So maybe not Ogre scale,
- 53:09Broodscale, Canox, Canox. There we go.
- 53:14I. Think, I think he's going to be
- 53:15in some. He's going to.
- 53:16I think they're going to want to put them into Ox crew type suits
- 53:20though. And they'd have to, yeah.
- 53:21School could be could be yeah, which they might do but yeah,
- 53:25but they can give a bit of variety.
- 53:27You know there was a mention on the in the previous, uh, wave
- 53:33about some of them weren't umm, weren't ready in time to put on
- 53:38their suits and kind of, you know some of them were part of
- 53:42the story don't you remember that Yeah yeah.
- 53:44Now you said I do, that rings a bell.
- 53:46Yeah. So that could be something to to
- 53:48bear in mind. So we're.
- 53:50Thinking Corgid bollock naked now then this is what we're.
- 53:54Saying like you. Just before this podcast when
- 53:59they're. Talking about his head, it was
- 54:01it was actually a distraction. That's not what they meant.
- 54:04Scar in his head like you as well comes.
- 54:06With a different type of tool. Isn't this the one time you'd
- 54:12like to have hair rich? It would have softened the blow,
- 54:15it has to be said. Yeah, and you wouldn't, you
- 54:19know, the scar would only appear maybe in another 10 or 15 years
- 54:22time. I can't remember if anyone.
- 54:26Asked me what the scar is from legions calling and telling me
- 54:28hitting an axe during the Viking.
- 54:31Episode 77 you know, punch those numbers right?
- 54:36So Mal, give us your next one. So sticking with the crew.
- 54:42So there's a bit of an order to this Freya.
- 54:44I think we're getting Freya and I think she's probably going to
- 54:48be the sort of their nice cheap to do figure that where they
- 54:55basically use Ellaria's body, different colour, different head
- 54:59and and and that's I think she'll just be that OK, I think
- 55:05possible. I think I wonder if we'll get
- 55:06her in green. For some reason I think green
- 55:10could be the color for another. Lot of green this year so far,
- 55:16but yeah. That's all I've got for her.
- 55:18I think she's going to be the, you know, where they were able
- 55:20to sort of keep the cost down a bit and reuse some of what
- 55:24they've already done. Well, Traya for me, I think
- 55:27she's, yeah, she's the science officer.
- 55:30So eh, you could say, OK, she's going to be, eh, maybe on the
- 55:35engineer body, but I don't think so.
- 55:37And I think she's going to be Vorga scale using some of the
- 55:43Vorga parts. It may be in combination with
- 55:47some of the parts from the Tusk science officer.
- 55:53So, yeah, so and that could be that white figure that we see
- 56:00here. I don't know, maybe that's
- 56:02somebody else. It's got a gun noise.
- 56:04I'm thinking that's why. I'm positive background there.
- 56:07That is OK, we get to that. Then yeah, but that's my guess
- 56:11with her Rich. Well, Miles clearly buggered my
- 56:15computer because his suggestions are very similar to mine on a
- 56:18lot of this. Well, I mean we've.
- 56:19Got some. We've got some hints here.
- 56:21So you know, we do have a framework.
- 56:23In based on experience of what they've done before exactly.
- 56:27No, I agree with Mal. I think they'll just reuse the
- 56:29hilarious suit. OK, you think?
- 56:31OK, Yeah. My hope is it'd be a different
- 56:34species, and that's a definite. All.
- 56:37Hands raised to the gods with some sort of squid like
- 56:40tentacles coming out of the hand.
- 56:41The hands, they never got much tooling.
- 56:44You've got a different head and tentacle hands.
- 56:46That's all you have to talk. Think we're.
- 56:47Going to get that kind of stuff for the other people, not for
- 56:50the, you know, the, the ship's crew, I think, but how good.
- 56:54Is the science officer if you've got a lot of tentacles and she
- 56:56can like. Or fix.
- 56:57Seven instruments at once as whatever.
- 56:59Well, how bad is she? I just, I think, I just think if
- 57:03they use the Alaria, it's not going to be sad as much for
- 57:07people. You know, if it's just an Alaria
- 57:10with a different head and a different paint scheme, I don't
- 57:12know, I think people. Have to be a bit real though,
- 57:14and you know, there will be a bunch of new tooling in this, no
- 57:17doubt, but you know that it's like with Mythics for for wave
- 57:23after wave after wave, the the there was so many, so much reuse
- 57:27of parts and and the night bodies especially.
- 57:31I think people have to be willing to accept a bit of that
- 57:33with the cosmic for a few waves as well.
- 57:38When they go, when they go, when they go really big like they did
- 57:41with Ox crew, with the the big bigger suits, you know, they've
- 57:44got to recoup that money. So it makes perfect sense to get
- 57:47just use those again effectively for the next couple of waves.
- 57:52Yeah, sensible business practice.
- 57:55OK, I've been told. Sit back.
- 58:00Down, John. Sit back down.
- 58:02Get down. You see, when he edits, this is
- 58:04when he edits. It Mali just just blanks us out.
- 58:07He's like, we've lots of sound to both of you, so we're going
- 58:09to go. No, I'm not even editing your
- 58:12microphone bumps out of this one unless the unless unless the
- 58:20noise reduction plug in gets them.
- 58:22Eh, they're going to be in there.
- 58:25And right now I think you want to know.
- 58:29You know what, Rich? We let's let's let you go for
- 58:31the next one because you're you're you're moaning about Ken
- 58:34one up to here. Can I get my suit colour first
- 58:37with the Oh yes, Oh yeah, I'm going yellow, the science
- 58:40officer. OK, so I'd have, I'd be happy to
- 58:43get yellow on one of them. So umm, yeah.
- 58:47If it's eh Treya, that sounds good.
- 58:49Are you ready then for your next one?
- 58:52Can we? Keep a little bit of order
- 58:54though. Can I push us towards talking
- 58:55about Kearns buddies next please?
- 59:00Sure, have you? They were next.
- 59:02On my list of miles. So yes, that's fine.
- 59:03Excellent. Excellent.
- 59:06So so I think the the figure in white in the picture, I'm going
- 59:10to randomly guess of the two names of her buddies.
- 59:12I'm going to go high law. All right.
- 59:15And we have we got the Is that the one on the left or the
- 59:18right? Yeah, the left, OK.
- 59:21I think the one on the right might be earlier.
- 59:26So this is the first picture and then the picture of the is the
- 59:31is the. I think they're the two same
- 59:34figures. That yeah, I think the one in
- 59:39the background of that picture is the one of the right of the
- 59:44picture with Kern and her two buddies because if you look
- 59:47there's a white, there's a white neck piece around there and then
- 59:52there's a white loincloth I. Think there's?
- 59:56Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I do as well.
- 59:58And then there's this white fabric, this white like almost
- 1:00:02sash, which I think if you look at the if you go back to the
- 1:00:08blurred photo. See, round the neck, yeah,
- 1:00:13there's this, yeah, you get that white sound and then that
- 1:00:16actually right in the middle and the one on the.
- 1:00:18Yeah. So I think that's that figure
- 1:00:20with a slight difference that I'll talk about when we talk
- 1:00:22about them. Anyway, Rich, back to you.
- 1:00:25So which? Which picture do you want Rich
- 1:00:27the this one for? Me, it's this one.
- 1:00:30Yes, I've completely and utterly forgot about that other picture
- 1:00:33with the two of them pixelated out.
- 1:00:34So I feel a bit of a fool now, but here we go anyway.
- 1:00:41Yeah, so I think this is a high law.
- 1:00:43I think it looks, it looks like there's a blue.
- 1:00:46It's a blue skinned. Figure looking at the.
- 1:00:50Just underneath or just above, rather the sort of scarfy type
- 1:00:54thing that's that's blue. So I'm getting a blue skinned
- 1:00:58alien of some sort, Hopefully not the same race as Tiger.
- 1:01:03I'm thinking a bit cyber techie like like Kern and I was hoping.
- 1:01:08But the weapon, the weapon there, I'm not sure I'm going to
- 1:01:10get it there would be like a weapon almost like constructed
- 1:01:13of parts of another weapon. So like this salvage different
- 1:01:16bits of different weapons and made this one sort of weapon
- 1:01:19they can use and have that sort of scavenger type feel to it.
- 1:01:24Yeah. So that's that was my thinking
- 1:01:26around I. Actually thought that head was
- 1:01:29no, of course there's just looking at this, this really
- 1:01:31blurred picture, what I actually thought it was like a helmet
- 1:01:34that's like kind of ATV shape almost with the kind of blue dot
- 1:01:38in the middle and this kind of white boxy outline.
- 1:01:43I don't think it is, now that you've said it so.
- 1:01:47Interestingly, I think that's high law too.
- 1:01:54But John, he's. Copying my homework.
- 1:01:57There is literally no like I've read the story a good few times
- 1:02:01from there is no indication of who's who so you're just
- 1:02:05literally going on highbrow high lore or I've gone.
- 1:02:10By Joe Barra Jabara Yeah, I've gone by, I think so.
- 1:02:16So let me talk about high law first.
- 1:02:17So if we go back to if we go to the picture where it's got Kern
- 1:02:21and the two of them blurred, sorry, if you're listening,
- 1:02:25you'll have to try and find the photo.
- 1:02:26It's on the the picture that was posted.
- 1:02:30It's the one where you get range sensor distance and it's got
- 1:02:35Kern in the middle with her head sort of circled clear.
- 1:02:41And I actually think they're doing they're a little bit a bit
- 1:02:43of deception to make scale less obvious because.
- 1:02:48Turn is definitely way closer than well.
- 1:02:51I don't think she, I think by doing that they've made, they've
- 1:02:54magnified her. So she's big and her shoulders
- 1:02:58would be roughly where the circle starts.
- 1:03:01So I think Hylow, who I think is on the right of this picture is
- 1:03:05bigger and I think possibly so. So I should say funnily enough,
- 1:03:11before they even said anything, I, I, I describe these as being
- 1:03:15some sort of scavengers or they've described them as out
- 1:03:19wasteland nomads, haven't they, that use Tusk parts, Which is
- 1:03:23funnily enough where I was going with what I thought I could see.
- 1:03:26So I think this is possibly. It's.
- 1:03:30Either a 1.0 or I think you possibly got it right when you
- 1:03:35said it could be either a trolled scale or even a brute
- 1:03:40scale maybe because I think that this picture, it's wearing a
- 1:03:45helmet. They are wearing a helmet, and I
- 1:03:48think that's a Spexian helmet that they're wearing because of
- 1:03:52the shape. That's the figure on the.
- 1:03:53Right here of that turn right picture, yeah, which is and and.
- 1:03:58Now I've seen the picture where it's clearly a soft goods Cape
- 1:04:02type thing. It explains what the white is
- 1:04:04because I don't think they'll have the mandibles in or the
- 1:04:08hand antenna. I think it would just be the
- 1:04:11some version of the Spexi and helmet.
- 1:04:15And then I mean it's hard to tell.
- 1:04:17You can see a bit better in that other one.
- 1:04:18It looks like it's probably just bits of she almost.
- 1:04:22It almost looks a bit similar in in colour and outfit to Callie
- 1:04:29and Shun. Doesn't not Callie and Shun.
- 1:04:33What's her name? Turkey lady.
- 1:04:38Ozerian Spire. OK.
- 1:04:39Yeah, in. Colours I mean, but but he
- 1:04:42mentions it will be tusky so I'm guessing there's some Tusk
- 1:04:44armour in there, but I really think that's a sexy and helmet.
- 1:04:48I just and I think it's going to be at least brute scale.
- 1:04:53So then it would be the sexy in prison guard.
- 1:04:56Yeah, yeah, the. Prison guard helmet, Yeah, yeah,
- 1:04:59yeah. And and that is quite oversized
- 1:05:02for so each it would work on a bigger figure as well.
- 1:05:06Maybe an alternate head then with the?
- 1:05:08Yeah, definitely. Definitely 2 heads I I.
- 1:05:12Actually get just overall for the way I, I get the feeling,
- 1:05:16you know, seeing this one kind of blurred whatever, but with
- 1:05:19the soft goods that they might actually use a good bit of soft
- 1:05:22goods here to try and bring variety to the looks while not
- 1:05:26having to do too many new parts. I think that is that's a
- 1:05:33definitely an option for them. Well, Kearney is so striking
- 1:05:37that have people in the same group as her, they have to try
- 1:05:41it. You know, they have to get that
- 1:05:42bit of extra mile, don't they, with the with that.
- 1:05:46Yeah, they have to be these way like she is the classic kind of
- 1:05:50wasteland kind of sci-fi wasteland kind of character.
- 1:05:54Or, you know what you might think would one would look like?
- 1:05:57You know, almost a kind of a Mad Max vibe buffer.
- 1:06:01Again, I love. Her I can't wait, can't wait for
- 1:06:04to see what these other two look like.
- 1:06:07I'm so excited by. Right yeah, I didn't have too
- 1:06:11much on these two stone sticks is what I took from from the
- 1:06:15first story. I think we'll.
- 1:06:17Get a few happens, yeah. Have we had stone sticks so far?
- 1:06:21We have, I think, had something like a stone sticks, yeah.
- 1:06:25Like Harry? Yeah.
- 1:06:27So again, that's vaccine head that maybe makes sense that
- 1:06:30they've yeah, they've scavenged those parts right now.
- 1:06:36What's your next one? So.
- 1:06:38Jabara, who's on the left of this image, and I think if you
- 1:06:42look, she looks like she's either the same she see, I'm
- 1:06:45already saying it is either the same height as Kern, which means
- 1:06:50it's a 2.0 female or it's a a possibly no, sorry, which means
- 1:06:59sorry, My initial thinking was it was 2.0, but actually
- 1:07:02thinking about it, I think it could either be it's a 1.0 and I
- 1:07:06think it could be another 1.0 female.
- 1:07:10And it's really hard to tell what, but it looks like they're
- 1:07:12wearing a Cape or a jacket that's, you know, similar.
- 1:07:17So because they've got a similar sort of shape, that curved shape
- 1:07:22to, although a bit bigger, a bit wider as Calian, so maybe it's
- 1:07:27male. There you go.
- 1:07:28I'm going it's 2.0, a 1.0 male body.
- 1:07:34There you go. But what?
- 1:07:36What there again, it's going to be.
- 1:07:38I initially thought it was a spexion with just the shape
- 1:07:44blurred pick, but that could also be a Cape.
- 1:07:49What did you have for this one, Rich?
- 1:07:54So this is me for once. No, I don't automatically go for
- 1:08:01the lizard. It's a crab person.
- 1:08:03No no again because I completely forgot about that picture.
- 1:08:11Although they are wearing what appears to be like a big Cape or
- 1:08:13something like that. I want multi limbs.
- 1:08:15I want a four armed alien. And that Cape over.
- 1:08:20The top of it with a shape could cover that.
- 1:08:22Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You might be right.
- 1:08:25Then you might have, yeah. Do you think in this picture of
- 1:08:29the comms gear and that this this kind of image almost on the
- 1:08:34right is of that Joe Barra figure or a different one, or is
- 1:08:39that just a mountainy background?
- 1:08:42I think that's in my. Head, It was just a might.
- 1:08:44Yeah, it was just a mountain or something in the background.
- 1:08:49For me it could be like a Kragner scale thing I will say.
- 1:08:56Well, I thought you meant high, you know, the one that's in.
- 1:09:00Ah, when you said about Cragnar scale, I thought you meant and
- 1:09:03then that's possibly maybe and maybe it's the shape and it
- 1:09:07could actually. Just be the day as well Which?
- 1:09:09Yeah, and it could be one of the hostiles, potentially.
- 1:09:11There's a big hulking brute sort of thing, which is why they're
- 1:09:13in trouble. Well.
- 1:09:14I think we're going to get a different version now.
- 1:09:16I'm not going to say that. Spoiler.
- 1:09:18Save that for next. Yes, a multi multi limbed and my
- 1:09:23other my other requests and obviously it's too late and they
- 1:09:25wouldn't listen to me anyway, but would be a face full of very
- 1:09:28old very DARP teeth. Rather sorry, I think a few of
- 1:09:33them in this wave it's like. Psychotic looking alien sort of
- 1:09:38thing. Yeah, that would be nice to get
- 1:09:41some like. I think I'd be happy with the
- 1:09:44new parts to be new heads. I know that's a bit basic, but
- 1:09:50I'd be happy with you know, because anyone can, especially
- 1:09:53on this type of a thing with the wasteland.
- 1:09:55They can just scabage armor, whatever, you know, weather it
- 1:09:58up and and even if it's a Tusk outfit weathered up, you know,
- 1:10:04and then stick a, you know, an alien head on it.
- 1:10:07That can work, you know, right Mal?
- 1:10:13What have we got next then so. My thinking before any of
- 1:10:19today's reveals was that the next three to fill out the wave
- 1:10:23would more be creatures from the planet or the Harrow Zone.
- 1:10:29Yeah, as well. I mean, I think we only heard it
- 1:10:31was Harrow Zone yesterday, did we or?
- 1:10:33No? Whenever they only mentioned it
- 1:10:35was the Harrow Zone. So I thought it'd be more
- 1:10:37creatures from the planet and I thought we would either get
- 1:10:41another version of a Thraxian or a skate back.
- 1:10:46Another version of a skate back. So I initially said we were
- 1:10:50going to get a Thraxian. But with what we've had today in
- 1:10:53terms of teases and the nay, and I think we're getting the
- 1:10:58Harrows own skate back, yeah. Which is this guy here?
- 1:11:03I think you see, I don't. Think you say this is where I
- 1:11:05think that's one of the handlers of it, but we'll get on to them
- 1:11:11and the reason he's got because I'm sure that's the colour of
- 1:11:14the original skin. Now I suppose it's more green,
- 1:11:16but that could be the lighting. Sorry, Trevor, although that's
- 1:11:21no. That's, I mean they, they have
- 1:11:23obviously digitally manipulated this picture so that it doesn't
- 1:11:26kind of give away too much I wonder.
- 1:11:29If it's if it's one of the handles the original picture.
- 1:11:32Yeah. If it's one of the handlers, it
- 1:11:33could be parts from other types of skate back and they could
- 1:11:38keep and train and use Harrow Zone skate backs as their pets.
- 1:11:44So I think that the Harrow Zone skate back will be different.
- 1:11:47It'll be very, very similar again, maybe just a different
- 1:11:50colour. But yeah.
- 1:11:52But yeah, I think that could be one of the handlers as I'll talk
- 1:11:55about in one of my next guesses. Rich what?
- 1:11:59Have you got next? Yeah.
- 1:12:01So I mean, they're talking about Thraxian hunters, obviously, and
- 1:12:04although they said it wasn't the Thraxian hunters that captured
- 1:12:06them, they're going to be the hostiles, I'm guessing.
- 1:12:09So I wouldn't be surprised if it's a similar a similar build
- 1:12:14and body type even to the original fractions, but maybe a
- 1:12:17different color and maybe there's some sort of different
- 1:12:20style weapon as well. So yeah, I've got a, I've got a
- 1:12:27different Thraxian, but yeah, with more, more kind of
- 1:12:33wastelandy stuff. So, you know, maybe tattered
- 1:12:36Cape, that kind of thing. Maybe, you know, they've already
- 1:12:42done two. Is it 2 heads they did for the
- 1:12:43tracks in or do they do 2? Two?
- 1:12:48Yeah. So would it be worth to sculpt
- 1:12:50another one? I'm not sure.
- 1:12:52But I think with the, you know, different paint scheme, that
- 1:12:56head has only been, you know, painted once.
- 1:12:59So I think they could do a different paint scheme to make
- 1:13:01it look quite different in the same head.
- 1:13:04So yeah, I do think we'll get another Traxion, slightly
- 1:13:09different build maybe. So that's.
- 1:13:11Interesting, isn't it? Because you, you took the
- 1:13:13hunters to be Thraxian hunters. I took the hunters to be
- 1:13:17something completely different to anything we've heard of
- 1:13:20before. And that would be a.
- 1:13:22Dream, but I'm kind of expecting a good bit of reuse here.
- 1:13:25So a bit of reuse. Yeah.
- 1:13:26And then well, and then with the addition of what was it the
- 1:13:35Scape Haven, I assume that sounded a bit more.
- 1:13:40I mean they obviously have some affiliation with the skate
- 1:13:43backs. So I took them as possibly being
- 1:13:47these hunter group, which so it could be the Thraxians live at
- 1:13:51Scape Haven, of course, and they are connected.
- 1:13:53But I took it as I say, I've taken it as being a completely
- 1:13:56different group. So the Truxan scout is in the is
- 1:14:04in the unaffiliated citizens of Cosmerian at the moment.
- 1:14:10OK. But we don't know do.
- 1:14:13We until it's released and the. Skate back has unclassified data
- 1:14:17does not apply currently. So he's probably in scape
- 1:14:23heaven. So I think we will get more from
- 1:14:27that faction. So this is a new faction that's
- 1:14:29just been added to the website. So there's another tease.
- 1:14:34So I think I think we're getting like, I just think it's obvious
- 1:14:38when you look at the the tooling and the parts that we will get
- 1:14:42another escape back and whether they'll do it in a slightly
- 1:14:47different way, because I know that they they did.
- 1:14:51They did say that the skate back parts were that's kind of goblin
- 1:14:57kind of compatible. So whether they'll do it on that
- 1:15:02kind of a build, you know, but with the same head, which could
- 1:15:06look mental. And if you were to get that,
- 1:15:10maybe before we got the skate back, you'd be really like,
- 1:15:13whoa, but now it might look strange.
- 1:15:16I don't know, but they know what they're doing, So I'm not going
- 1:15:19to to to kind of prejudge it, yeah.
- 1:15:26I think in my head with them being hunters I could I could
- 1:15:29imagine and you guys may have said this sorry it is breaking
- 1:15:31badly in mind, but maybe riding escape back it.
- 1:15:36Was like a That would be cool. It's like a hunting.
- 1:15:38Beast sort of thing. So you know.
- 1:15:40So we might get some escape back kind of armour.
- 1:15:46So that would take somebody could sit on one yeah, yeah, be
- 1:15:51pretty cool. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:15:56But I, I definitely, I mean, does everyone think we will get
- 1:15:59a? Escape back.
- 1:16:01Oh yeah, definitely. Yeah.
- 1:16:04I think we'll get a different version, a different colour
- 1:16:06maybe. Will we?
- 1:16:07Get it in that in that configuration or do you think we
- 1:16:12get it slightly differently I? My thinking was it'd be very,
- 1:16:19very similar. It might have a few tweaks to
- 1:16:22make it the skate back from a different zone because that very
- 1:16:27much fitted with the rocks and all that in where the camp was
- 1:16:31didn't and all that. But or at least that's what they
- 1:16:34did for the die. I was to try and make the so I
- 1:16:37wonder if so I maybe it won't have the same amount of spikes,
- 1:16:40maybe it'll have more spikes or it might just be a rake paint.
- 1:16:44I don't. Know, yeah, but that that head
- 1:16:50on the skate back looks exactly like this kind of head in the
- 1:16:54cage here. I just can't see it.
- 1:16:59Well, I mean if you just look at the.
- 1:17:00Eyes. The eyes are identical.
- 1:17:04The eyes are identical. You know, you don't see the
- 1:17:08mouth here. It's just kind of blocked off.
- 1:17:12But isn't that an articulated John Skate back?
- 1:17:17Oh, I can't remember. Yeah, I think it is.
- 1:17:20Yeah, I think it. Is yeah, we'll find.
- 1:17:22Out anyway, Yeah, but this is the predictions.
- 1:17:25I think you. You made, you made a very,
- 1:17:28you're right. You made a very good point about
- 1:17:31that actually could be in it like another cage and it's, you
- 1:17:34know, it's sticking its head out of the cage.
- 1:17:36I do think that's possibly, yeah, that you could be spot on
- 1:17:38with that. Yeah, I actually think like, I
- 1:17:42don't know what they are. I think it's just a part of the
- 1:17:45dial here. The little things around the the
- 1:17:49Sea of the Cosmic look like ninja turtle heads.
- 1:17:56They're clearly not. Or maybe he's escaped back,
- 1:18:00pulling some sort of rudimentary chariot with a Thraxian hunter
- 1:18:03riding that. I'm going to ban her here, but
- 1:18:08you know, you never know. So what?
- 1:18:10Have we got left then? My my last guest before today's
- 1:18:15lore, and I didn't go further into it, was the a large Rover
- 1:18:21vehicle of Tusk origins. So I tell I'm going to predict
- 1:18:25that just in case that we get it.
- 1:18:27That's going to be my last prediction and that's going to
- 1:18:30round out the wave. So you don't get any more
- 1:18:33figures, but you get the vehicle.
- 1:18:35And I'd love that. That would be a kind of a big
- 1:18:39woe thing for people and I think it's worth some doing it each
- 1:18:44thing. Is maybe it's a little vehicle,
- 1:18:45Yeah, maybe. That is the back of the vehicle.
- 1:18:47Yeah, I'd love a gnarly vehicle like that.
- 1:18:51Not some sort of Mars Rover kind of jobby and.
- 1:18:56And if they did something like that, they could use that cage
- 1:18:58thing for a medieval type thing for mythics as well.
- 1:19:02Yeah, true. Yeah, you could choose them use
- 1:19:04the just the gate piece. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:19:08So, so that's my last prediction.
- 1:19:09What it What have you guys got left?
- 1:19:12So I was a bit, I'm in an RN over this.
- 1:19:14I as I say, I sort of initially had gone through Axem, but
- 1:19:18change that today to the skate back.
- 1:19:20So I think the next two are just going to be two versions of
- 1:19:22those hunters from the escape. What was it?
- 1:19:25Escape Haven, one of whom I have a sneaking suspicion could be
- 1:19:29some kind of beast handler. And you know, the guy who
- 1:19:33wrangles the skate backs for that group.
- 1:19:39An idea? Yeah.
- 1:19:42Part of me thinks that's, I mean I get what you're saying and I
- 1:19:45do see what you're saying. If it's in something and it's
- 1:19:47sticking its head out that that's the skate back.
- 1:19:50But I wondered if that little that guy in there was the
- 1:19:53handler or something. And scale wise I actually
- 1:19:57thought he might be the same size as I've forgotten what his
- 1:20:03name is. The Goblin Ochre.
- 1:20:08OK. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:20:10So I wondered if, and it's a bit deceptive because of the angle
- 1:20:13it's shot at, it looks like it's bigger than he is.
- 1:20:15So it could be. So I wonder if they could be
- 1:20:19creatures, these hunters the size of hooker and more, more
- 1:20:22like hooker perhaps. And and then I'll find and it
- 1:20:26was sort of like my final guess. Sorry, Rich.
- 1:20:29I'll just say that since they're linked, just another so maybe if
- 1:20:34one's a beast handler the other one is a hunter or AI.
- 1:20:40Don't know Archer. Or something, you know, not
- 1:20:43necessarily an Archer, but that kind of thing.
- 1:20:45Another version of one of these hunters.
- 1:20:48Oh, with the? Mad Max 2 boomerang little kid
- 1:20:51that. Would be cool.
- 1:20:52That would be very cool, right Rich?
- 1:20:57What's your give us the rest your predictions there?
- 1:21:02So the Rover thing, like you, I'm going to tip my hat for that
- 1:21:04as well, although I think it's unlikely.
- 1:21:06Now I'm going to hedge my bets on that picture that we had
- 1:21:11earlier today. So the big thing on in the
- 1:21:12background on the right could either be a rock formation or it
- 1:21:16could be like an ogre scale fraction of some sort.
- 1:21:19And the only reason I'm thinking that is because of the the the
- 1:21:22I'm pointing my screen. You can't see it, but the little
- 1:21:25thin lines coming out as if it's some sort of, you know, not
- 1:21:30appendage, but some sort of thing coming out of its
- 1:21:32shoulders or something like that.
- 1:21:33So I could see that maybe being a large and part of the the
- 1:21:37hunting party sort of thing. If they're going after big
- 1:21:40beasts, then they need a big member of that, that party sort
- 1:21:43of thing. Something that could be an
- 1:21:45option. I don't think we're going to get
- 1:21:47it, but I'm going to mention this anyway because I mentioned
- 1:21:48it every time you talk about cosmic robot Legion builders.
- 1:21:54I'm hoping if I say it enough times it it maybe it'll sink in
- 1:21:57with the Horsemen. I think we'll get them.
- 1:22:00Eventually. One of the days, yeah.
- 1:22:02It's, you know, it's a cheap, cheap, if you do Legion
- 1:22:04builders, you know, you just need the one colour.
- 1:22:06It's, you know, like a cheap way to get robots into the line.
- 1:22:09And then you've got all the the limbs and that sort of stuff to
- 1:22:11use for Cyborg characters and different setups and that sort
- 1:22:14of thing. The tiny aliens we've talked
- 1:22:17about already. So I won't mention those again.
- 1:22:20I think we're good on that. Yeah, I think that was
- 1:22:22everything for me. And I can't believe I forgot
- 1:22:25that photograph with them blurred out.
- 1:22:28Rookie. I'm going to blame the knock on
- 1:22:29the head it. Was probably around that time.
- 1:22:32So I think I think you you have definitely got an excuse there.
- 1:22:37I did ask people didn't get many responses, but I don't think
- 1:22:44people like to put their neck on the line here.
- 1:22:45But we had a couple of responses to what other people in their
- 1:22:51Patreon think will will be revealed.
- 1:22:56So, uh, Ben Kostanovich, I think he's kind of, we've covered a
- 1:22:59lot of this, a vehicle, he thinks, and probably the other
- 1:23:03crew members and maybe a different type of Thoraxian.
- 1:23:06So I think he's probably going to get most of that.
- 1:23:09The vehicle is obviously the one that's put up in the air.
- 1:23:13Umm, Kevin, uh, boots, I think he's got a very interesting one.
- 1:23:20So I could see the vehicle cog from the ox crew, the two of
- 1:23:26Kearns crew, two or three natives to the planet and then
- 1:23:31in inverted commas, Powercon exclusives from the Harrow Zone.
- 1:23:36One will be a hoard tribute and one a buzz off tribute based on
- 1:23:41the David Williams design and we've already spoken about David
- 1:23:45doing the pins, so now they have a relationship with that.
- 1:23:48So maybe they have a fan designed power contribute, which
- 1:23:55is if you have not seen it, last year David did a buzz off
- 1:23:59tribute with the cosmic parts. That was amazing.
- 1:24:03So look that up. I think Dorkler owns it these
- 1:24:06days. He got a delicious gun.
- 1:24:09So what do you think of that MOTU angle?
- 1:24:11It would be a good place to put it for sure, yeah.
- 1:24:15If we're going to get, it's going to be this, it's going to
- 1:24:18be in this wave or next year for the power con and next year that
- 1:24:24Mal is going to go to hopefully as soon as he gets that
- 1:24:31promotion. That.
- 1:24:35Doesn't quite exist yet. I don't think there's any more
- 1:24:38operations for me. And then Kevin also came back
- 1:24:42and Jeremy Govia as well, saying more dial pieces.
- 1:24:47Looks like we're going to get some comms gear.
- 1:24:50So yeah, I think we've we've covered that.
- 1:24:55Yeah. So that is that.
- 1:24:58So next week, obviously, we're going to talk about the reveal.
- 1:25:02So we're going to be a little bit more certain in that.
- 1:25:05Don't forget this fella, the heavy gunner, he's going to be
- 1:25:08released this weekend at Ishkhan and we're going to get a chance
- 1:25:13to get him in and in stock in September, which interesting to
- 1:25:18see what else would be in that in stock now that a lot of the
- 1:25:21stuff we maybe thought might be in the in stock like the the
- 1:25:26Sconeman has already been sold. So and they have said for a lot
- 1:25:30of the stuff that's in this in stock, this is their last stock
- 1:25:33of that stock. So interesting and then
- 1:25:38interesting to see what will be in the tables for Allegiance Con
- 1:25:41as a result of all these in stock sales.
- 1:25:44So heavy Gunner, I'm very excited to get that when it does
- 1:25:48come around. I can wait till September.
- 1:25:52I don't need to to pay the Ishkhan premium of somebody
- 1:25:57getting it for you and all that hassle.
- 1:25:59So but enjoy them. The people that do get them.
- 1:26:03That's going to be awesome for you.
- 1:26:06And also I think with heavy gunner the the Anthony House
- 1:26:10seal gun attachment that he showed his website that will
- 1:26:14work really well with a heavy gun very.
- 1:26:16Cool. Yeah, and the Harrow zone.
- 1:26:23So I did look up the definition of Harrow.
- 1:26:26Do you want to hear that? Yeah, go for it.
- 1:26:30It's a cultivating tool set with spikes, teeth and discs used
- 1:26:36primarily for breaking up and smoothing the soil, but also
- 1:26:39means to torment or to vex. So I think we're going for the
- 1:26:45latter bit there. Yeah.
- 1:26:49Because when I told my kid host the harrows and he's a what is
- 1:26:52the Harrow? And I was like, yeah, I know it
- 1:26:55means bad stuff, you know, harrowing.
- 1:26:58But how, you know, it's always the kid when they ask you, you
- 1:27:01know, to explain that and you have to just use other words
- 1:27:04that mean the same thing. It doesn't quite work.
- 1:27:07So you often I end up looking up stuff just to see if there's
- 1:27:10something that makes it a bit easier.
- 1:27:13So that's the arrow zone. So that that's I think that
- 1:27:17gives you an idea of what hopefully the the bodies in the
- 1:27:21arrow zone are going to live up to that.
- 1:27:25And we're not going to be too Harold.
- 1:27:33Nicely done. Yeah.
- 1:27:38So that's it. Maybe we'll have the the watch
- 1:27:42along, hopefully. So I think Rich is definitely
- 1:27:45going to be up, but not sure about being now.
- 1:27:48But we'll try and make it and try and put it together.
- 1:27:52Anything else for this week, guys?
- 1:27:54No. Good to have you back, Rich.
- 1:27:56Thank you very much. I wish my Internet was better so
- 1:27:58I could actually have heard, but yeah.
- 1:28:01Get on to your provider now, give them a little, tell them
- 1:28:05you're trying to watch the Olympics on your on your iPlayer
- 1:28:08and it's not working. Yeah, as you see.
- 1:28:14Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:28:18What did you say? Don't.
- 1:28:19I don't know. Let's leave it like.
- 1:28:21That I all right. I had Ayucha presumes iPlayer
- 1:28:24and then it just throws there. You go.
- 1:28:26OK, Tough station for you tonight, Rich.
- 1:28:28It's not just the bump on your head.
- 1:28:31All right, take it easy. Enjoy.
- 1:28:35Park Screw. Wave to the Harrows.
- 1:28:38Safe. Safe out there, everybody.
- 1:28:40Although this might be after the music's finished, you know.
