I will keep this short:

 

How about some luggage, future metal briefcases, duffle bags and backpacks, very future tech think Traveller or even anime style.

 

I agree, and some Travelleresque people minis to go with the luggage.

 

And hail and welcome, my fellow Traveller. :B):

 

We need to organize a Traveller Miniatures Revolution: Vargr ans Aslan miniatures O’ my….. as for luggage some I have collected over the months.

I do have a question, in your listing to Reaper do pictures or description help, a lot of suggestion can be taken multiple ways that may not be the author intent. For example, Space Opera could be anything from Star Wars to the original space operas that are now considered to some as pulp space operas. Are there any limitation on licenses or copy written characters, or do we call them, "Traveller" type adventures, or “Not a Han Solo” space rouge and not invalidate our request?

 

I’m always looking to increases my odds of success you might say.

I heartily agree with all of this! Indeed, I believe that there are a few other Traveller fans on this forum/

 

Perhaps we should get Mongoose and Reaper talking about a joint Traveller minis line?

I'm loving the superheros (and supervillians!) in the Chronoscope line, so I would like to suggest a few more:

 

A Modern Mystic - The recent Merlock and Yvette have got the "stage magician" look covered, and lord knows there are plenty of robed fantasy magic user figures available, but I was thinking of something more like Dr. Strange. Wearing a suit or maybe superhero style tights, with a big, ornate cap and maybe some mystic looking accessories like a turban or a big amulet.

 

A Martial Artist - Again, we have plenty of fantasy monks available, so someone in superhero tights and a mask,but in a dramatic fighting pose.

 

A Steath Hero - Something like Batman or Moon Knight, a hero who works in the shadows. Tights, a cape and mask or hood, maybe with a throwing weapon in his hand like a shuriken or boomerang.

 

A Female Paragon - The "paragon" catagory is used in some superhero RPGs to represent a generic Superman style character. The Captain Griffon figure could be considered a "paragon". So, a tall, strong woman in tights and a cape.

A Modern Mystic

A Martial Artist

A Steath Hero

A Female Paragon

 

 

All seconded. Also...

 

Non-elemental flying heroes - regular costumed heroes flying with capes

 

A Shapechanger Hero - One or more superheroes in the process of changing into other forms. Hulk-like transformations with ripped costumes as muscles bulge; one side of the figure in superhero garb and the other in everyday clothing, with a blurring, stretched section in between to represent the change; "were" type heroes changing into their anthropomorphic animal forms...

 

Culturally-inspired Superheroes - with costumes inspired by traditional cultural dress or icons. Captain Hammer-and-Sickle, a Native American hero - a Not-"Warpath"-from-Marvel-Comics, a Celtic superhero in cape and kilt, etc...

 

And a Not-Captain-America with a shield.

I'd like to see a few generic super types... pretty much just plain spandex models. A single model could be converted into DD, Spidey, Iron Fist, SS, Bullseye etc... or Jean Grey, Invisible Woman, Black Widow etc...

 

An accessory pack of capes.

 

A male head pack with various superhero masks.

 

A female head pack with various masks.

 

A human and turning version of Jesse Moonwalker and another three stage lycanthorpe male and a female. The middle stage could be used for Wolverine, Sabertooth, Wolfbane, and Feral types.

I'd love to see that happen, somehow I don't think it's going to. As far as I can tell, the rights to produce Traveller minis are in very muddy water.

 

Quite a few of the existing Chronoscope line are turning out to be useful for Traveller - I'm painting up the NOVA corp guys as Traveller Imperial Marines myself.

 

 

In the meantime, some more nice generic sci-fi Travelleresque miniatures would be fine.

 

Generic looking ship's crew in jump suits with and without guns

Anthromorphic dogs and cats (lions and tigers) for Vargr and Aslan

Futuristic guys with turbans

Miniatures for Masamune Shirow's Shadowrun. You know traditional fantasy races (AKA Tolkien races) in a near future setting as postulated by Appleseed and/or Ghost in the Shell.

 

I'm not interested in '80s inspired cyberpunk minis. I'd like to see some Shadowrun minis that actually look like they are from the future.

 

Iain.

I would be perfectly happy with some not-Traveller figures. Some spacefaring Lionmen, Lizarmen, Dogmen and Centaurs. :poke:
