Spectre have returned from their trip to the States and we’re already seeing a glimpse of what’s coming soon thanks to the WIP channel on the Spectre Discord. It’s hard to overstate how important the Spectre technical releases (both the original in early 2017 and the SF variants later in the year) were to both…

Right on schedule, Friday saw another update from the guys at ESS on their next stage for INCOUNTRY. We now have a release date! August 1st 2023 will see INCOUNTRY: RECON release, along with a pre-order event for a few new releases that are ideal for this smaller figure count version of the INCOUNTRY mechanics.…

Flytrap Factory has today shown off some visuals of their upcoming ultramodern figures they are releasing later this month via Patreon. This first video shows off the first two elements that are coming out on July 15th for Black Sector. The Assault Element and Breacher Element are reasonably modern PMC operators (although not quite tip…

It’s the start of a new month which means (like clockwork), Enemy Spotted Studios has a new release up on its tribes page at My Mini Factory. And these guys are something I’ve been looking for since basically 2009. Yep-Yep. I previewed Shade Company a few weeks ago when they were first shown off but…

The day is here – Spectre has released the figures they have been teasing and previewing for the last few weeks. So we have the SWAT Team, we have the Criminal Element Gang and we have the Heist Crew. We also have a resin Bearcat for your SWAT team to ride around in, making this…

Austin Miniatures, makers of modular Ultramodern figures, earlier this week released a brand new set of PMC Operators, available now on Gumroad as STL files. As you can see form the pictures above, these are all geared up with the latest and greatest in terms of kit. High spec M4s complete with a Hyrdra seque…

Yesterday Echelon Software, the makers of Black Powder Red Earth and BPRE28mm, dropped something brand new and larger than life to their preview feed. Having already released some rather fantastic figures for their 28mm game, they are now looking to bring All Kill No Capture to a slightly different figure market – that of the…

Yesterday was Friday which means it’s news time! With two lots of smaller bits of news (and the fact I’m hammering out these News Stand posts and doing barely any of my own stuff) we’re going to combine them all together. First up Spectre. They have been having a little bit of a cyber issue…

Following up on Combat Octopus’s 2nd VBSS release, I was approached by Paul (Paulidus on the Ultramodern Discord) messaged me about the set of VBSS figures he had commissioned from Spectre via their Director tier on Patreon. Paul has a keen interest in the 1980s/1990s tactical chic (and will not stop sending me the cool…

The Lazy Forger, 6mm evangelist and man responsible for generating impulsive print sessions on my printers most frequently, grabbed me to show off some 6mm buildings (releasing today) that are picture-perfect for some Ultramodern wargaming.. And this time, we’re going into the concrete and sheet metal jungles of the favelas. In the past, we have…

Combat Octopus has just released the latest monthly update to all his Patreon backers. This is the second part of the VBSS release we had the first part of back in February and while that initial release focused on the main assaulters, this pack adds some more unique firepower. Containing both M14s with red dots…

Just announced via their newsletter email, the Enemy Spotted Studios team have announced a new variant of the INCOUNTRY(or INX) ruleset, titled INCOUNTRY:RECON. From reading through the newsletter (available here), this is a matched play version of the original INCOUNTRY rules, designed to be quick to pick up and play while focusing on smaller battles.…

It’s a new month, and like clockwork on the first day, I get an update from MyMiniFactory telling me that Head Goon from Enemy Spotted Studios has deployed a new release into my collection. These Ghost operators, continuing Operator Spring that the Tribe is running, are a pretty interesting set of figures. They have a…
