Starship Troopers - want more

 So lately I've come across a few Starship Troopers references in my feed.  First I saw a youtube video about making the armor from foam.  It's been one of the costumes that seemed pretty easy, except for the helmet.  But we haven't really done much in way of costuming lately.

Then I came across this video, where someone shows off their collection of figures.  Since I've been getting back into painting, it made me want to get some more figures.  I have all of the books and a bunch of the figures.  But not all of them.

It does make me want to get more figures,  While ebay is always an option, I can also get some of the non-movies metal figures direct from Rebel Minis. After my next purchases, I will probably try to get some of them.

Figure Painting Total - February 2024

 I got a Dust Tactics Core set.  It is missing the dice, tank traps, and containers, but I have extras of those from the Revised Core.  The figures are already prepainted but I will want to go back and repaint them so that they will match the colors I will be painting the rest of my Dust forces.

I was able to prime the Don’t Look Back figures from last year, and have actually started painting some of the queue, as well as repainting some of the Dust Core.
