MaxMini’s Space Police Start the Lockdown
August 22, 2012 by brennon
We've seen a lot about them over the past few weeks, but the Space Police Heads from MaxMini are finally on sale. Go and grab them now, ready to lay down the law in the far future...
Looking great now their painted up, and a seriously good buy for converting up some Sci-Fi marines. I can't wait to see some miniatures donning these helmets and charging about the tabletop.
Will you be buying them?

I must confess that I couldn’t see “it” when they put up the previews.. but now that there are painted examples, I’m really liking those heads. A squad of these in a Penal Legion-themed Imperial Guard army would look ace!
Thats a good idea for the use of them. Also good for Judge Dread figs.
I still don’t get why every helmet is different, you’d think they’d all be issued the same gear…
I’m with you on that one.
I like that they’re different. Kinda sucks when you have a whole army looking the same with the exactly identical faces. This gives you some customisation and while if you looked closely some would be the same, as a mass they would all seem individual.

Different *faces* would be wonderful. We’re referring to the *helmets*. No two are alike. And they never give you the option to order just one style, which means if you want your uniforms to be uniform, it’s 500% more costly.
Now, if you’re making the Village People GI Joe army of the 80’s, all that is golden.
I see what you mean but with these every guy with the smooth helmet and visor down will be yelling, every guy with the pilot like tabs will have Joe Dredd’s Eggbound grimace, all the gasmask troopers will have the visor up- which in itself is a bit silly since CS/OC sprays etc burn the eyes too. The faces will still be the same 5, if they’d all had the same helmet they’d have blended in more and it would have looked less like the same 5 guys repeated, but with every helmet being different it will draw more attention… Read more »
Budget constraints, new helmets are only issued when the current issue gets pulped by a AP round.
Totally awesome ordered mine tonight 🙂
