Gunslinger – Deep Dive on… Release 3 – GIG Security Team and Burya-156

30/09/2023

Last month, we took a look at Part 2 of the Black Sector Global Interdiction Group releases, covering the Command and Support teams. Alas, all good things must come to an end and this time we’re going to cover the final releases for this quarter, wrapping up the figures for Black Sector with the Security Team. However, it’s important to note that we also get to cover my favourite release in the range so far Burya-156, the first figures for a brand new faction Blockade and the first Character team. (As an aside, you can thank Urban Scatter Gaming for…
The Board Of Shadowy Figures Project 1- October 2023

25/09/2023

Over on Patreon I have rolled out a new set of tiers for ChargeBlog. It’s goal is still mostly to be more of a tip jar rather than a full on job but the offering of single tier wasn’t really doing what I’ve been wanting it to be. Saying the words “pay what you want” in Patreon’s interface doesn’t particularly work. So that’s why we now have The News Fans (to pay for the News Stand posts) and more importantly The Board of Shadowy Figures. If you haven’t looked yet, The Board of Shadow Figures basically lets you decide the…

New week, new news post. We’ve got plenty of exciting news in this post, from stuff I missed from Spectre last week to upcoming Kickstarters and even some stuff that friends of the site have been getting up to. Without further pause, let’s get to it! Gunslinger Prepares It’s First Signals Dispatch Gunslinger is taking a week off as we prepare for the launch of the next range in October. However, we’re not entirely quiet – over on the Flytrap Digital Patreon, we’ve been gathering questions from the backers to include in our first catch-up video. This is going to…

We’re halfway through September which means that things are a little calmer, a little more time for announcements and a little less running around like a mad person. Although that doesn’t mean we don’t have anything at all – read on for all the latest from this week’s News Stand. Gunslinger Releases Release 3 and Prepares For The Next Range This week was Gunslinger release week! As you can read in the release post, this month’s files are now up and available for the patrons at the Gunslinger tier. I’m really happy with what we’ve managed to release, especially as…
Gunslinger Release: Black Sector Part 3 – Security Team and Blockade’s Burya-156

15/09/2023

I am pleased to announce the third release of the new Gunslinger range from Flytrap Digital is available now, for those backing the Patron at the appropriate levels. This release ties up this quarter, bringing an end to the Black Sector Global Interdiction Group releases with a rather unusual set while also providing some OPFOR to go up against them. This month also marks the end of what we internally have been referring to as our prototype period – we’ve worked through the initial teasing troubles, set up the processes we’ll use in the months going forward and are in…

Finally, a quiet-ish week after the business of the last few. However, quiet does not mean dead and I have a pile of stuff to show off this week. Gunslinger Reveals Blockade Team Burya-156 World exclusive (unless you’ve been on the Flytrap Digital Patreon) but I can reveal the Character Team coming with this month’s release for Gunslinger. This team is the first from a new faction “Blockade” and its members are designed to go up against the Black Sector Global Interdiction figures released over the last few months as well as a very interesting team being released in the…

Coming to you a day early because tomorrow I’ll be driving down the motorways of the UK to go see AEW at Wembley, it’s this week’s News Stand! And man, when I asked the industry to cool it for a week, they turned to me and gently whispered “no”. So lets cover it! Gunslinger First up, earlier today we dropped the Deep Dive on this month’s Gunslinger release, giving you more details on the Command and Support teams. You may notice they are all missing their heads, well it because the new headless models are kind of a pain in…
