The concept I was alluding to was shown in
this thread.
Now that I am in a wishlisting mood, Would it be possible to see a vehicle bitz sprue ? I'm mostly thinking about skinnerz vehicle, and specially the beast since its three plugs lend themselves to a lot of customization, but a small sprue with a search Light, a Siren Horn, an open hatch with a yelling commander, another open hatch with a gunner, an antenna, etc would be very very nice.
I'm quite sure Skinnerz collectors are all in love with their bitz box (as one should be), and such accessory sprue could be used to customize miniatures from other ranges as well, so long as we stay true to the standard 6mm plug and would quite possibly be a smashing success
Novam and cybershadows themed one as well probably, although they don't yet have models that would benefit as much from it.
I don't even know of any 6mm manufacturer who made custom plugs like that available, and that's really a shame -
We could also imagine other accessory sprue for stuff without a plug but that one could still use to personalize vehicles (folded camo net, spare track links, antennas, strapped crate, fuel barrel, bolted on additional armour, field repairs, ablative armour, etc), although it would probably still have to be faction specific to be flavourful.
Well, throwing ideas out here, but I think such small additions (each sprue would probably be roughly equivalent to a sprue of small infantry) are great way to enrich a whole range. Variety is king !
