Close up pic seems to show the crabgun as part organic as well. Could work as a Dark Legion nasty as a well...

I think it fills the bill for the Cancer gun. Multi-legged with claws and gun. ;)

Granted the fact that it is a crab and the Cybertronic MMG is called the Cancer which has the zodiac symbol of a crab makes for a nice tongue in cheek moment, but the fig does not match the description or the overall fusion of man and machine concept of Cybertronic. More an ironic representation than an iconic one.

Agreed, but it has all the parts I have been looking for to build my proxy out of.  Merge that base (with some clever re-organizing) with a Metropolis Warmachine top and viola!

Incidentally, does anyone have any extra punisher pistols?

Don't think so Veez but if I run across them I'll put them with the ohter stuff I am holding for you.

BTW - Southpaw and I were brainstorming and if they are the right size then the figs with the flight packs might make a good 19th Silent proxy. Just need to replace the arms with 40K Marine Scout shotgun arms and maybe a head swap but then again maybe not. Any thoughts?

I think that would be do-able, but I was going to use the Landsraad figs from Cyclopes Forge.  I think they are a little closer.

Still, not being able to acces this site (yet) makes me have to ask what the release schedule on these guys is?

Wow that is cool!

Ironically I made my Cancer Mounted HMG from plastic bitz from another Russian plastic model company Tehnolog.

They seem more like Void substitutes, but sure, some of them could be usable as... say, mirrormen or maybe people's volunteers?

Wow!  That's exactly what I had in mind when I read the description.  I'd almost swear that was the concept art for the non-existant official model.

Seeing as how Liniafrontu at one point called itself the "ultimate Warzone website" I'd say it was more than just coincidence.  I know I am suddenly filled with ideas!

 Just posting a new link to the site as it seems to have been updated.

 I have spoken with a model supplier in the UK and he said when he asked the Rep about these miniatures,the Rep had no idea as to when they were due in the UK or outside of Russia.
