Chris Ceizyk

Hell yeah, Now just need an ornithopter :)

Matthew Lewis

Really like where you are going with this line of models! Keep them coming, I want more!

Bennett Jenkins

I'm fired up, this looks great so far! Are any going to have the stillsuit tubes to their nose?

HURON Romaric

OMG! you're my hero! I was thinking about running a RPG campaign taking place on a famous sandy planet ;) and now I so much need these miniatures for my players ^^

Matthew Town

MUAD'DIB, Looking forward to you stillsuit. Maybe a serious Fremen character or alternate heads for proper wearing, instead of the water fat showing of skin. Looking forward to this so much.

Marcos Hidalgo

Oh! looking forward for Geri, Melanie C, Melanie B, Emma and Victoria!

tifauk

Oh god dammit you knock it out of the park consistently. Cannot wait for the new film and now these.

CK Lai

Lovely. But Count Drakul isn't fat or disgusting looking enough ;-)

Marcelo B

is this seriously going to replace alien vs humans? or will come through cyberpunk. If it's the first option, I can guarantee that you have Muhadib's Prescience ability.

House Hendoe

So this means we can expect a Fedaykin Christmas aka Muad'Mas, Jihad New Years, and some Valentine Spice?! * Slowly moves hand to Crysknife

wombo66

Papz is on a roll! Lets populate Dyne!

Will Nexii

I'm so lost lol, i didn't see this before now and it being cancelled? Was this going to be the next set of sci-fi releases to follow aliens vs humans vs skull hunters?

Sergio Lafuente

I'm very sorry to read that and more with all the work you have done, I wish you a lot of encouragement for the whole team, no matter what comes in November, I'm sure it will also be great too :)

ARM

Damn. I was looking forward to the change and the awesome models for supporting you for so long, and I'm a bit tired of the 80s movies now.

Scott Woods

I mean, its not unexpected - love your work guys, but your business model is playing with fire.

justjay

I was looking forward to the ornithopter for my admech army, oh well... I mean, it's inspired from the books and not the movie, right ;)

Marcelo B

Sorry for this man.

Dwayne Hinton

I hope my low reviews of the movie and refusal to again participate in the franchise doesn't catch on and cause this dune reboot to fail worse than SOE with the matrix online

Overread

This is very sad news as its clear just how much fun you have designing the models for this release (and indeed all your releases). Hopefully there's enough room within the CD for you to rework the designs into more original sculpts and to release them under a new concept in the future.

The Aussie Avenger

Oh damn, the title was probably a bit on the nose, just name it something different

Lelaeth

Does that mean more AvP? :D Can never get enough with all the cool stuff you were making. :D

Alex

Whatever you bring will be right.

Real Repaints

This bites hard-core! Big business taking down the little man again. If anything it might have helped the struggling movie. I was honestly more excited to get the minis and paint them,than the movie. I watched it and was mmmm ok. Have you asked them if you can calibrate,? Or they just say stop? Your minis are amazing. Maybe next month do a big re-release of some different months for all ,then you can focus on December and we are all happy. Aloha from Maui Mike

Robert Leeds

That is too bad. Those looked awesome! Thank you for the work you put in, even though we won’t get them.

MonCapitan

The slow blade penetrates the shield, but nothing is slower then bureaucracy. Disappointing, but that's the risk of being at the forefront of this type of media. I say sit on the project for a while and try to release it later under a modified title, if you're still modelling after that long, that is.

Galen Teschendorf

That's very unfortunate. I was very much looking forward to a new theme. I understand this can happen. No worries

Ramiro Carrasco Jr.

Crap. F those fools. Do it anyway and make it available to absolutely everyone for free on Discord, MMF, Cults, Gumroad, ArtStation, Itch.io, Thingiverse, and Pinshape as "Free Fan Art". That'll teach them not to be so damn greedy, plus Nov is taken care of and they didn't screw you or us. I would do it for free.

Rastagnon

Twist it a bit to a parody then it is fair use. Base it from book, not movie.

Mike Davies

I didn't join until Skull Hunters, but I was able to get into the kickstarter for AvH. Perhaps you could offer us some of the older sets for free? There's a lot of Cyberpunk stuff you did that I would be happy with.

CK Lai

Yes. Base it on the book, not the movie. Or use more elements from David Lynch’s version.

TheOneTrueGnomeKing

No way, that really sucks. Everything you do is F'n magnificent and a Dune 1984 or 2021 theme would have been bad ass. probably could have slid under the radar if it was a few months from now but i totally understand the struggle... but you know, it might not be a total loss. If it doesn't interfere with your CaD order, you should def think about releasing it as free fan art. Especially while the new movie is still fresh and among the top search results. Ride them algorithmic coattails to gain some new eyeballs on your work ya know.

TheOneTrueGnomeKing

For real tho, I totally wanna see pictures of what you came up with even if you cant release the models. make it like a patreon exclusive to peek into the lost archives of the elusive Papsikels.

Esben Christiansen

Well the minis could be used with other themes, they could be for a universe of your own design, just be careful. Edit: To be totally honest, I personally are getting tired of the Alien and Predator stuff, I joined because if the cyberpunk stuff, and such.

Rastagnon

Ice Station Herbert! Antarctic Explorers in Cold weather survival gear, Battle Russian Saurdakaur cough errr Spetzaz over rare iceflower pollen with life prolonging properties. ........ok, if you have any obvious still suit things like nose tube, remove them. Because it essenially looks like leather armor to me. Name guys the first names of rock stars, John. ringo, paul, george, Yoko... whatever. Put them on a ice world, Your Sand Tyrant or what ever becomes a Glacier Burrower (or Replace with whale, release giant worm elsewhere). Worm Hooks become ice climbing gear, perhaps with position change if you sculpted them or perhaps meat hooks used on a whaling ship.... their leather desert protective gear becomes arctic survival gear. Poly paint a few minis in arctic camo colors for your banner. Unless you modeled your figures after the RL actors, I dont think they'd have anything to object to. Drop your story elements that parralell Dune, or all of them. Realign the identical sculpts into differing alliances, new story if any. He is just a bard in the antarctic base that harvests anti aging krill seasonally from the frozen ocean ice sheets. David nivens RingWorld series wrote about exotic antiaging Drugs. Id think with some relatively minor superficial redirection the entire set of models could be saved for release thids month... if you modeled the lifters to save the spice harvestors.. that one might need a different set. I am not one so confirm with lawyer.

Rastagnon

And then we could post picture of our Dune inspired repaints, lol

Notimeforwargames

Flee a bit too close to the sun, no problem we appreciate the effort! Take your time and we all look forward tocthe next month of releases!

Scott M.

This is a nice pivot! Sucks about the C&D. We're with ya Mr. Papsikels.

House Hendoe

Damn, and we all know they won't even develop their own minis. Unfortunately I really can't justify supporting more AVP minis going into the Holidays. I have no Tabletop interest in the franchise whatsoever and only stayed because of the upcoming Dune releases after suggesting it adamantly with the other spice addicts here. This sucks personally because when I joined this patreon is was about Cyberpunk, Shadowpunk and Fantasy and over the past year I've spent about $100 on files I'll never print with more on the way apparently. Please try something else, Andromeda Ascendant High Guard/Argosy Corps, John Carter of Mars, Farscape, Lexx, Babylon 5, Enemy Mine, Ice Pirates, even Mars Attacks anything but more Aliens or Predators as a longtime supporter I'm begging to keep giving you money at this point.

Esben Christiansen

I was thinking a ash waste theme or just wasteland theme, it could be corporations harvesting crystals or pollen that comes from giant or bigger beetles that lives under the wasteland/ash-waste, its just a question as small tweaks.

Rastagnon

I know, I was just tryig to move it as far from Dune, as possible with minimal sculpt changes. Important thing is to preserve the 3d work, while Divorcing the IP conflict

Mike Davies

This is awesome. I'm happy to see you had something available. I love the Skull Hunters.

The Aussie Avenger

Man so disappointed about EoS not happening Cant re label it

PrinxeTepes

That is a bummer, however that doesn't mean that it can't happen in the future. Godspeed and I'm excited to see whats next.

Cody Good

paps you are like the only patreon i wouldnt cancel and prey for my tmnt fix but brother im seeing ideas for this month of pred than avp 5 and the kickstarter....can i get a month or two of no alien or predator in it .....for the love of god brother.....dune was a relief and i dont even like dune and the new one is ehhhh.....and yes i know you have released a crap ton of models over the last almost 2 years but pull something out ya clacker

Willdesigns

Hey, keep the spirit up. There are fantastic and awesome sci fi series to build a lore upon. For my part I m a huge fan of Farscape, Firefly and Babylon 5. Maybe a mix of those can go amazingly well for the future. A sci fi dark western full of interstellar races and awesome ships. A mix bag of delicious candy. :D

Daniel Ganem

I'm so disappointed :( I joined your Patreon only for this Dune release so, I'm sorry but I will have to leave you if this release is cancel

Papsikels Miniatures

dont be sorry its ok. i will understand. thank you very much for your support. and hope to see you again in the future

Lelaeth

Yes, more AvP! <3

Esben Christiansen

Rastagnon I never said anything against your idea I personally don't like snow and frost related things, also minor changes should be enough as I recall.

Riffick

So I could be wrong, but doesn't copy write law only apply when you make a profit? Therefore, you could release the existing models on MMF for free as "Dune Inspired", covering the credit base, for free. This would keep those models from going to waste, giving people who haven't had a chance to print your amazing work a free opportunity, and promote their movie at the same time. Selfishly I just wanna get my hands on them, but I think that would work for all parties. #not-a-lawyer

Starside Cowboy

I super, super like this idea! Also, would love to see a Papz Industries take on a Starfury!

Rob

Well I wasn't a Dune fan did see the movie and you did a really good job on the models....sadly too good, as Legendary didn't like it. Some companies are supported of fans making things and some just want to milk it for all they can, even if they have absolutely no intention of making such things like you have done. Heck, you should offer your models to Legendary for any game they plan on making!

Rob

Copyright laws cover everything...but many of them are difficult to prove in Court and depending on the jurisdiction and legal processes. Take for example China, who sells all sorts of things that are from other places. I get Lego SW items there for my son, which is actually better looking sometimes than the Lego Denmark stuff!

Riffick

Still worth looking into, Idk the specifics of the C&D. Legendary may even be cool with it if asked.

Riffick

I was a fan of the books and movies (including the then SciFi spin offs). I'm less likely to pursue anything Legendary does now if they sic lawyers on the regular (way above average talent) joe lol

Galhadrad

That’s a huge shame - the Sand Empire models you showed looked fantastic and I hope they do not go to waste. On the plus side, more Skull Hunters! (And maybe some more pasty big lads in bio-suits, Papz Industry space explorers etc. too?)!

D (Rob)ert Pemberton

Can't you just add a few guns, a few removable heads & call them close assault troopers? Or something?

Nick Adegite

Gotta love the money bags people. Oh well lol

Eric Obara

Aw! Somebody squealed. A pat on the head and the satisfaction of IP protection to keep them warm at night. At least Legendary won’t miss out on any of this cash…

Lost Productivity

OK, why not just change it to "winter Wonderland" and have it be about exploitative alien forces on an ice planet with ice worms? throw in a few snowmen, and give everyone a Santa hat and mittens, with the current versions as alternates?

HURON Romaric

I must admit as many people here that i'm a bit sad about this news. I had a project of RPG game and I intended to use your minis. Can you modifiy the models a bit so there will be no IP issue?

Eric Obara

how about you organize a donation campaign and use the money for a good cause? People donate, and you give the models as thanks. No profit here. Or we can run a "Save Legendary" campaign and donoate all the money to legendary (their preference of course...)

Toggers

shame but understandable i can see lots of people making sugestions for work arounds - but honestly i think its just to difficult for a small provider to argue with a mega corp even if they arent actually doing anything wrong, as soon as lawyers get involved its just too expensive sadly

DMChase

Yeah, you never know which companies are going to be litigious or even care.

PAUL BALDOCK

It's a real shame that you have wasted all that time and money in producing a project that I would have tought they could use for a game release of their own.

PAUL BALDOCK

I know I have my gripes some times but I respect you and your work. It is a shame that some companies are so shortsighted.

Tomas Ingvarsson

Rob, The lego patent has run out, which opened the floodgates for replication. all the compatible brands started popping up after that (2011) so perfectly legal and a good example of how IP can stifle creativity.

Geburah

Sorry to see that set vanish into the sands, but not surprised. In fact I'm more surprised (and glad) that it's only with this release that it's happened... I've been carefully downloading your sets as soon as they are released, just in case. Loot Studios had one of their models (LotR adjacent) retroactively taken down, for example...

PaintingLittleMans

That's the game we play, baby. In any event, glad to see Mike Harrigan bumped up!

Galhadrad

Love the cop with the gun. Perhaps he needs some unnecessary attachments to the gun (because 1997 is futuristic and all guns will have crazy attachments in that far future).

Galhadrad

Marcos knows what’s up!

tifauk

Genuinely gutted, was looking forward to those models. Sort of a nice thing to be recognised though maybe?

Thomas Dutton

Give them away for free with private email.

Thomas Dutton

Rename them as Austin powers characters

Michael Alvarado

This month looks boring. The Predator sculpts look recycled.

Galhadrad

Loving the reveals this month! Want some candy? XD

Alex Prouty

While I'm pretty disappointed about the news regarding the wrecking of the Arrakis inspired models, I really appreciate the work you guys are putting in to bring us another set this month! The PCPD figures and "civilian" figures in particular are pretty versatile and a nice addition!

MonCapitan

Detective Dong Zuleata reminds me of AC/DC singer Brian Johnson

D (Rob)ert Pemberton

You could add a few sidearms to the dune models, change a few heads and rename them a generic name such as assault Troops or something

Marcos Hidalgo

The evil Hardgoonmen, the house Altoiders, and the kings elite troops, the Sadatourcar.

FARMER STUDIO MINIATURES

Hello my favorite Artist, i can't found the stl file "Budol gang member El Alakdan" where can i find it please ? Have a nice day

Galhadrad

LOVE LOVE LOVE these! A whole gang each of Voodoo Posse and Colombian Scorpions would be great - you could then have 4 factions in a game!

Enty

@papz - I was late getting the full October release, so I downloaded part from the g-drive and just finished with the rest from MMF. Doing some crosschecking to see if I missed anything, I don't think all the files made it to MMF....

Enty

Unfortunately, I don't have a complete list of the g-drive October files to give you a full account, but the one I downloaded earlier from google and wasn't in MMF is the Gigerian Hybrid Aggressor C. Also, I didn't know if the other letters in the series or the Skull Hunter hybrids (both lists, A+B) might have been included in previous months, but they weren't in the Oct MMF list either. I hope this helps...

Dwayne Hinton

do the remixes have to be downloaded from the remix post? or do they get added to mmf?

Galhadrad

I think the ‘missing’ ones may have been the Kickstarter rewards, separate to Patreon.
