How about 2 wheels at the front on 'scaffolding' style legs? That would allow more variation? Could also add small side guns on the railings??

because Dwarves in Victorian clothing with gatling guns and steam powered weapons aren't VSF enough??


THe chicken guys dont have the weapons, so are just victorian style dwarves. WHich is cool, and I really liked the whole charm and character of the chicken ting, hence being tempted by them. BUT they are not VSF enough as illustrated.

I wondered if Bob was going to up VSF the chicken set?

We are going to offer separate tags as part of this kickstarter, and they will include some steampunk backpacks, heads, and some of the weapons on tags. So you could steampunk up the victorians, the zeplin crew or even the palace guard if you wanted to.

Good idea, if you notice on the latest vehicles they have side lamps which would also make good mounting points for the side guns you refer to.

Cool, I will get with the backing then! Can you do an arm with a VSF laptop or adding machine of some kind?

I see the tank is being offered at the same price as a set of figures, will it be possible to take it as one of your choices or only as an add on?

Remember there's postage on top of the £15 for the tank

(goes off to check)

£3 for UK backers, or £4 for the rest of the world
