New Heads Previewed!!

Rifles and CDF heads are incoming, there have been a few delays due to some issues with the prints.  In the meantime, here's a preview of the 4 releases that will follow in the next wave:

These next 2 sets are the result of working with a Mad Robot customer.  In return for helping to cover the printing costs, I worked from his specific design concepts to make these heads a reality.  Other people interested in doing something similar can send an email to projects @ madrobotminiatures .com to request the specifics about how it works.

Cheers to all and here's to a happy and safe new year!

Christmas Update

Just a heads up for folks, the store will remain open through the holiday season.  While you can make purchases at any time, any made between 12/22 and 12/26 won't be processed until 12/27.

Also look for some new product announcements next week, as well.

New rifles and heads set should hopefully be up for sale next weekend.

In the meantime here's a new preview of our classic tanker head set.  These will be part of the next wave of releases, due out in January:

New Stuff...

The Present

I just did a slight re-vamp of the blog and I thought I would take this opportunity to type a few sentences about what's brewing here in the lab.

The next wave of releases are currently at the printer and we are aiming for a December 1st release, if not sooner.  Earnest work has begun on the next wave of parts and we hope to be breaking into new territory with some torso releases, in addition to our ever-growing selection of heads and weapons.

The Future

For those of you that don't know, one of the long term goals here at Mad Robot is to have the option to select parts to build a complete figure.  That essentially means head, torso, arms, legs, and weapons.  To this end, my personal goal is to have 4 of those 5 essential parts for sale by the end of the year.  We will most certainly have heads, torsos, and weapons covered but the arms and legs will come along more slowly since the initial process takes time.  Once we get the first models completed, it becomes less time consuming to get new ones to market.

What Can You Do?

I love getting feedback from people, the best way to contribute is to find out where I'm at, and make suggestions...give feedback.  Where am I?  That is for you to find out :) Of course, you can always just send me an email ;)


That's it for now...

More Price Reductions

I'm happy to announce further price decreases, this time on shipping within the U.S.  It doesn't seem right to have someone pay $6 shipping on an item that costs $3.50.  So, effective today, we will be now be sending U.S. orders under 13oz. via 1st Class Mail.  All orders will still include delivery confirmation.

I'll be monitoring this to see how it works, hopefully it will help ease the hesitation on some people who only want to purchase an item or two.

Price Adjustments

I'm happy to announce new pricing on our Heroic head sets.  These new prices should give folks a better chance to enjoy what we're trying to here at Mad Robot.

New sets are coming soon!

Requesting Feedback & Input

As I prepare for some new releases, I thought I'd throw out a request for some feedback.

What kind of heads and bits are you looking for? I've got several, traditional, military-style things in the works but the possibilities range from modern, to near future, to "mass effect-style" space opera.

Same thing goes for weapons.

Like I said, I have some things already planned, but I am interested in specific ideas you guys may have.
