Very pretty. Just need to model some baggy trousers on it and it’ll fit right in 🙂

Oooooooh shiiiiney gimmeh!

As a PanO and a Haqqi player, I am less than excited about it. 😛 Joking aside, I’d like that sword “belted” on the midriff more, but with my lack of knowledge of the traditional Japanese weaponry, it might represent something else (some arm blade?). What I really love about the Infinity concepts is how they’ve depicted the overall similar tech level of the (most of) various factions, yet given them very distinctive characteristics; i n other words – most of the weaponry (Ariadna and Combine excluded) looks like it was made in a contemporary arms race, but it shows… Read more »

Oooow sweeeet! 😀

what happend to the base? the model is very nice! reminds me of the past… when i used to play probotector on my game boy ^^

Want. Been trying to resist adding any infinity miniatures to my collection but it’s obviously futile with models like this in the range. Japanese sectorial army here I come.
I have been trying to find both the rule books though as they seem to be the only way to get the fluff, however they seem to be extremely thin on the ground, not even listed on the official Infinity online store. Don’t suppose Beasts of War have any info from your contacts at Corvus Belli when they’ll be back in circulation?

If that isn’t Appleseed inspired I don’t know what it is. I was hoping the koalas would look different though. I think they are the exact same model as the ones for the massai hunter. Otherwise it’s pretty cool. Though this model is a example of why I would like them to do resin for the TAGs. This thing is going to need a lot of pinning on the gun arm and hips. Also because of weight. You can tell it’s going to be very right side heavy. I don’t think a counter-weight under the base is going to help… Read more »

Looks similar to linebarrel the anime especially where the sword is positioned.

Aren’t those little guys Crazy Koalas that belong to the Nomad faction.

@lucas I believe it is a play on the samurai who followed kido(demon’s path/way) they chained the sheath to their off hand and weilded the sheath like a shield. It was said they had lost everything.
As for me, I will be painting and modeling my JSA as such tattered cloaks and repositioning the swords. So-on and so-forth. I love the model and I think appleseed pioneered a functional mecha design that can be modified to fit any universe and sincit is real tech it falls into the category of fair-game

Thats one good reason to start playing Infinity. Now only if those were sold around here so that I don’t need to order them from some internet store.

I started playing infinity when it was just the starter box sets and CB never cease to make me draw breath. Lets hope that mantic look more to emulate this kind of quality than that other company who also make me draw breath, but for all the wrong reasons!

I still say it totally looks like the Armed Suit from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. Even painted white like the one from the Umibozu.

Glad it’s not just me that thinks it’s weird. I mean, CB are the ones who decide how big the bases need to be in the game and also the ones who decide how big the models should be and how they get posed. Joining those dots ain’t rocket science. I also find it odd as CB are far from shy when it comes to sculpting things in odd poses, and there are plenty of interesting poses possible that would fit on the base without building outriggers.

Strange.
