In their last update for the Vanguard Kickstarter, Mantic announced that they hope to actually be able to ship this early - as early as the end of September even! This is great news for those of us looking forward to this new skirmish game, as well as the miniatures for Night Stalkers, Basileans, Abyssals and Dwarfs.
I thought that since some people don't follow kickstarters, I'd show off some of the more recent pictures they have posted for the miniatures - especially those that have already been produced.
Of course, the biggest one, by far, is the new giant / frost giant. This looks to be a great kit, and I can't wait to put both options together.

Speaking of the Basileans, they have posted some studio painted models,

They also posted an image of a card for a model, allowing you to see how these will work.
Of course I'm hoping to get more pictures of actual models at Gencon (for which the exhibit hall has just closed for the first day when this should post).
If you are at Gencon, make sure you drop by the Mantic booth (#835) as well as the Mantic gaming area ( Gaming Hall B, on the main aisle) as well as Mantic night at the Hard Rock Cafe (49 South Meridian, Indianapolis, IN 46204). Me, I'll be in the gaming area running Kings of War events. See you there!
