The Question becomes more what he thinks we'd pay for models of.
In my case I'd like one of the '95 Godphoenix, and probably the
Original Godphoenix but not the Second Version of the Modular, Loonie
with Lightsaber fights from on top version.
I'm not sure what I'd use 25mm of people in Bird Styles for unless I
end up running my threatened Science Ninja Team Kali RPG campaign, but
they'd be cool. The thought of any Tuffly verse faction deploying
SPECTRA style uniforms is a little boggling but they have the
advantage of being different.
That leaves the Battlemechanoids of the week, some of which might look
fun and the Red Impulse fighters [Though personally I like Angel
interceptors better, they look like they were designed by the same
team as the '95 GP.].
