Asterian Cypher Squad – €25.00
Highly advanced biomechanical constructs, Cyphers allow the skills of Asterian warriors to be utilised to their fullest extent without the need for placing that warrior directly in harms way.
Each Cypher is piloted remotely – usually from low orbit – using a total immersion interface that allows their pilot to see, hear, and act through the Cypher as if it were their own body. Combined with a wide range of powerful weapons, the Cyphers are quick and incisive weapons of the Asterian Clades.
This set provides enough parts to build 9 x Cyphers, with a variety of weapon options.
Contains:
- 9 Plastic Cyphers with weapon options
Matsudan Squad – €25.00
After years spent competing in the brutal Matsudo Games, Matsudan warriors are expertly trained and armed with the latest cutting-edge weaponry from the Houses of Neo Matsudo.
Equipped with long-range weapons, like the ion barrage or ion cannon, Yokozuna and Ozeki can decimate enemy lines before the Sekiwake close in with their vicious shock mauls.
Now in Hard Plastic, there is enough in this kit to build 9 plastic Matsudan with a variety of weapon options.
Contains:
- 9 x Plastic Matsudan plus bases
Asterian Sky Razors – €42.50
Sky Razors are sleek, swift vehicles designed specifically for use by Cypher constructs.
They house sophisticated sensor systems that link directly into their pilot’s own senses. Armed with twinned Noh blasters, Sky Razors are often deployed to dangerous reconnaissance missions. Despite this, pilots often relish the additional mobility and firepower. Skilled Sky Razor pilots are therefore highly sought after and respected among the Cypher Clades.
This set contains 2 Resin Sky Razor models plus flying bases.
Contains:
- 2 x Resin Sky Razor Models plus Bases
Asterian Black Talons – €30.00
Black Talons are a highly specialised variant of the Cyphers, built for rapid airborne assaults.
With built-in personal flight units, anti-grav suspension, adaptive sensors, and armed with modified Noh rifles, the Talons are swift and silent predators. Although membership of this enigmatic group usually prevents them from gaining any leadership roles within their Clade, the Black Talons are still respected veterans whose opinions and knowledge is sought after by Cypher Primes, Overseers, or even Shu’uvatars. It is a rare occurrence, but some Black Talons are elevated to Primes where they can utilise their battlefield experience to lead others.
This set contains enough parts to create 3 x Black Talons, with optional parts for a Black Talon Prime
Contains:
- Enough parts to create 3 models, with optional parts to create a Black Talon Prime.
Asterian Weapon Platforms – €30.00
Some equipment is considered too heavy or cumbersome for Cyphers to wield – slowing them down and putting them in unnecessary danger. So, the Clades make use of semi-automated drones to bear such devices in battlefield support of Cyphers. From heavy pulse bombards to defensive shield generators, the drones are highly adaptable and – more importantly – disposable. Asterian commander take no issue with sacrificing drone constructs to protect a Cyphers’ retreat.
Now in hand cast Resin, these units are perfect to bolster any Asterian Force.
Contains:
2 x Resin Weapon Platforms and Flying bases

Sorry, aber ich kriege da zu sehr „Zorg aus Toy Story“-Vibes… Falls sie auf den Samstagmorgen-Cartoon look abgezielt haben ist ihnen das wirklich geglückt, aber meins ist es nicht.
Sky Razor hab ich nie ganz verstanden, Fahrzeuge für Dronen macht irgendwie wenig sinn wenn man die direkt fliegen könnte
Und in Resin dann einfach zu teuer als Grundlage für einen Umbau (wenn die als STL kommen wirds interessanter)
Aber die neuen Black Talons gefallen mir, auch wenn 10€ pro Modell etwas zu viel für meinen Geschmack ist
Bei den Minis muss ich mir keine sorgen um das Limit meiner Kreditkarte machen
Da ist nix interessantes bei.
Unter Umständen sind da einige Sachen auf dem Weg zu mir. 🙂
Lass uns mal firefight spielen! >:3
Ich bin kein Fan der asterians, freue mich aber das die neue Kits kriegen aus zeitgemäßen Material, und ich finde das ist auf jeden Fall eine große Verbesserung.
Ich finde die neuen Reaper von den Nightstalkern klasse, sind aber meiner meinung nach die einzigen der Fraktion die wirklich in ein Sci-Fi setting passen.
Statt alpträume aus dem Fantasy in den Weltraum zu befördern, wäre ein insektoides Alienvolk wesentlich interessanter gewesen.
Und was die Matsudan mit den Asterian zu chaffen haben erschließt sich mir auch nicht so.
Ich kann tausenden Roboterdrohnen produzieren … aber hey, lasst uns eine Allianz mit Riesenschildkröten schließen. ????
Anders rum, Matsudan sind ein Volk das gegen die Konzerne rebelliert hat und dafür Waffen/Technologie von den Asterians bekommen hat
Angeblich kommen noch Resinteile für Dronen aus Eigenproduktion statt Lend&Lease
