The Balescorch Cyclops; We’re Going To Need A Bigger Sword
July 5, 2013 by brennon
At the beginning of the week we had a look at the Balescorch Cyclops that would soon be joining the ranks of the Banebrood in Megalith Games' Godslayer, and we knew it was going to be big. But by the Gods, look how big it actually is...
That is absolutely crazy. The Godslayer miniatures are a decent size to begin with and when you put this one next to them it dwarfs them by comparison. Also this isn't going to be made of resin. This is going to be a hulking mass of mighty metal!
The only thing that's needed now is a painted version for us to gawp at as it crushes some puny Halodynes with its mighty fists and bores a hole through a Mortan with its death ray!
What do you make of this monster?

Not sure the idea of a huge metal monster model appeals too much
Also not keen on the hemispherical knee guards and the bands around the lower leg
Makes them look cylindrical.
Don’t see the point of guarding the empty space between the lags with chainmail either.
However I still rather like Polyphemus’s pal!
Still one of the better giants imho
Not sure if Cyclops roam the land on Dragon Age or D&D but I guess it could be arranged lol
Something about this model reminds me of the old Ray Harryhausen Cyclops. Oh man now that I’m thinking of him I wish he’d be back 🙁
Back to the model being metal. Are they mad? This will be so heavy that to ship it anywhere it will cost just as much as the model. Hope I’m wrong on that thou.
Apart from the knee guards (as chibi already mentioned) this is one very nice mini.
