Macrocosm - Malignancy Jetbike
Two jetbikes for you today, new releases from Macrocosm for their Malignancy range. These fellows were part of the Macrocosm Kickstarter, and were designed by myself and sculpted by Drew Williams. I'm very happy to see these get a release.
They are a very welcome additions to the Malignancy range. They also make great reinforcements to a genestealer cult, bike-mounted brood brothers and hybrids being something of a rarity model-wise. I'll certainly be adding some to my own cult.
I kept the bike quite civilian, possibly a police bike at a stretch. These guys would be mostly urban dwellers, so it made sense to keep the bike non-military. They have a heavy dose of 1950s vehicle design elements, as befits a bike with an actual jet-engine. A friend mentioned a little gun side-car might be a cool addition though, and I do like that idea.
The riders are separate from the bikes, and come in three parts, a pair of legs, two torso and two heads, so you can make one of four varieties of rider from the basic pack.
So, if you're looking to add some high speed action to your Malignancy force or genestealer cult, these guys are now available. You can get some here.

Wow - those are great. Not that I need distracting with possible reinforcements for my old Genestealer Cult!
ReplyDeleteNice looking range too - not come across them before.
Cheers. Go on, yield to the distraction.
DeleteNice work: at both ends of the process! Somewhere down the track, Malignancy is on my shopping list and these will definitely be a part of it. All sorts of fun for Pulp Alley!
ReplyDeleteThanks Preacher. One of these is a definite for my cult Pulp Alley league.
DeleteNice models & some very good highlighting Dave, I still haven't got around to using vehicles in PA something I'll have to put right soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks Frank. Neither have I, truth be told! It's something I'll need to rectify, though for a bike I'd probably use a couple of abilities to simulate it's speed and so on.
DeleteVery nice David....I'm going to have to give these a look.
ReplyDeleteThanks. They're worth checking out if you like your cult.
DeleteThese are absolutely top stuff mate! I'll be adding some to my Genestealer cult! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you Legio! They are a great add for a cult, it give hybrids something to race into town to get the pizza with on a Friday night.
DeleteGreat work Mr S. The models turned out absolutely lovely and the paint job is tasty too.
ReplyDeleteI didnt pick up any of those jetbikes yet, but I am going to have to pick up a couple.
Thanks a lot, it is nice to see them done and out there. I have several I intend to use in my own collection and that side-car idea grows more persistent...
DeleteDid you hear the rumours about a Deathwatch standalone game including Genestealer figures?
ReplyDeleteIt's kind of moot now, with pictures all over the net, but I had heard about it. Exciting stuff.
