Bombshell Miniatures Release New Animals & Automatons!
July 3, 2019 by brennon
Bombshell Miniatures has been showing off some of their new miniatures! The first two are a pair of animal adventurers you might want to drop into your Fantasy games. Watch out for the deadly flail being swung around by Lyca The Fox!
This little lady would be an awesome option for those looking to play a Barbarian or Fighter with an animal twist. She also has the look of someone who doesn't suffer fools lightly! The miniatures from Bombshell are all resin and this particular hero by Christine Van Patten looks like she would be wonderful to paint.
You could have a lot of fun with bright, bold colours here mixed with darker tones for her armour. I think it would provide a good contrast to her orange fox fur.
Trash Panda!
As well as Lyca we also have Rapscallion The Rogue Raccoon.
Also sculpted by Christine Van Patten, this fellow would be very at home rifling through people's possessions I don't doubt! I like that they've given him a bandit mask which suits the raccoon's fur patterning very well indeed. Once again, I could see this fellow being a dream to paint. I think models like this could be awesome as alternative board game miniatures and of course the myriad of different skirmish games we have access too right now.
Flailing Mekkus!
Patrick Keith takes over the sculpting for these next two releases. We're seeing some dangerous robots released onto tabletops starting with the Mekkus Harvesters.
As you might imagine, these Mekkus float around the battlefield looking to pick up anything organic or synthetic which would be useful for their overlords. If someone tries to resist their pilfering then that's when they deploy those big ol' cannons on their backs!
We also have the Mekkus Artificer who no doubt get stuck in and do a bit of the repair work when their fellow Mekkus get damaged.
Either that or they just skitter around like freaky creatures before getting their flailing limbs into your face, ready to cart you off to be liquidised!

These robots look awesome! We need more non-humanoid robits.
The hoovering robot looks like someone took the spy droid from The Empire Strikes Back and bolted a Warhammer 40k gun on top XD
I bet Ben could do with the first two as kids for B&B. 😉
The Harvester robots would make for good space stations in a game like BFG; I can easily see those tentacles being part of the repair systems, fixing damaged ships during games. 😉
The harvester’s look like next gen robots from the Matrix.
Those look really good.
