Paintergeist Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 (edited) Maybe a line of Retro-Robocops: 1) A steam-punk looking autamata-constable 2) An art-deco Electric Gendarme (bonus points if it looks disturbingly fascist) 3) A 40's style automatic patrolman 4) A Jetsons-styled futuro-cop (complete with an antenna with those annoying little rings around the middle) What other eras might be represented?

I really like the idea of an steampunk automata constable. Or perhaps... a not Mustachio! Some astute observers might realize that a not-Mustachio can double as a not-TicTok of Oz.... *EDIT* Mustachio is from Skin Horse by the ever excellent Shaenon K. Garrity & Jeffrey C.

Ellyria Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I would love to see a big fat mech with a cute little girl or cuddly critter piloting it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrym Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Finally, not-John-McClane; by which I mean an action hero who has clear had the ever living tar beaten out of him over the course of the adventure. I’m thinking torn cloths, bandages, and of course, missing shoes. I literally just had this epiphany of the not-John McClane. Glad someone thought of it. However, there are two more pieces needed to get the best not-McClane; a tank t-shirt and balding head. And to be honest, if you have a not-McClane you need a not-Hans Gruber. The epitome shot for not-Gruber would be the scene at the beginning when he's reading from his journal to the hostages. Although, to get some action into the pose, you could do the shot of not-Gruber holding the walkie-talkie to his face with the unloaded gun held on not-McClane. "Give. Me. My. Detonators." The only other not-Die Hard characters worth considering to make would be a beat up not-Zeus holding the brief case bomb and long-haired psychopath Karl with his gun held up to poke the air duct. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Email2085 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Speaking of the whole Not-John McClane business; how about Not-Jack Burton as a guy with a mullet in an Asian themed tank top armed with a combat knife in one hand and an uzi in another. A Not-David Lo Pan in a wheelchair would be cool. Round it off with a Not-Egg Chen armed with a Not-Six Demon Bag. Not-Thunder, Not-Rain, and Not-Lightning would be great additions to a Not-Big Trouble in Little China themed Chronscope series. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Email2085 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) I've been thinking about one of my favorite old cartoons from near Cartoon Network's conception. A Shazzan-styled genie would be cool. A winged camel would suffice, however. IMHO, every pen and paper rpg that even steers close to the Arabian Nights needs a Kaboobie cameo.

CaptainPete Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I'd like to see a not-Cassie Hack from Hack/Slash. And a not-Vlad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellender Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'd like to see a not-Cassie Hack from Hack/Slash. And a not-Vlad. I've been wanting a set of these for a while. I've found a couple of okay Vlads, but not a decent Cassie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Email2085 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 A rocketeer-ish pulp action hero would be a nice addition. Do we have a Nikola Tesla miniature? That should definitely be a thing. Bonus points for having him armed with some kind of lightening rifle. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPete Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I agree with having more Pulp heroes. Maybe a not-Sky Captain crew? Or a not-Phantom? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Email2085 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Could you make a Not-Phoenix Wright? With some minor modifications I could probably turn him into a Not-Roger Smith from Big-O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultrasquid Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 How about long haired sci-fi orcs with armored foreheads, armed with daggers and khopesh and crescent swords and ray guns. And they should have long claws so they might cling on to their enemies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
