Made up a Soil Ghost today
Pretty Gritty and rough I like him
While a cool looking custom and a good start, it doesn't say Soil Ghost to me based on how Kit describes them in his blog. Bob's note pretty much says it all.
My name is Damien, the son of a farmer before. Under the conscription policy I have to go to different cities at the border. After I got the notebook of Bob a month ago, I was transferred to the northeast border of the desert area of my country, Zamaii, to stop the robbery conducted by those shadowy tribes, "Soil Ghosts".
In a world where wars go non-stop, even a country like Agurts which has long been remained neutral was invaded by the Soil Ghosts, the armed forces at the border of the neighboring country. By then no country in Europe has nothing to do with the wars. The country which "Soil Ghosts" belong to has vanished due to pollution and desertification. Pollution has destroyed natural resources and with scarce resources the country is unable to trade with others. Now the country was left with a few small tribes. Contamination has resulted weird changes in the body of the "Soil Ghosts". There are rumours that the "Soil Ghosts" worship the phantoms living in the desert and eat human bodies for food. No one wants to deal with an enemy like "Soil Ghosts".
In Bob’s notes, there are also some fragmentary records about the "Soil Ghostsâ€.
"They are the tribes left in the vanished country next to Zamaii."
"Their bodies experienced mutation due to pollution."
"They use human skeletons as the masks for protection."
"Different parts of their bodies get swollen, there is no single rule."
"Some have developed exceptional vision ability."
"Crust formed on their feet."
"It’s so easy for a government to use propaganda to hide the truth."
"Here I met the most kindhearted and beautiful face, their simple behavior for self protection is described as evil."
"Due to the lack of resources, Soil Ghosts use the skulls of their deceased loved ones to make masks. They also believe that the masks carry the blessings from their loved ones and will guard them against enemies."
I need to find mine. I had a mold of just the mask a long time ago. You could dremel the hell out of a skull head or sculpt over it too.
I don't understand this disclaimer
"Products may contain sharp points, small parts, choking hazards, and other elements not suitable for children under 16 years old. "
16? My son shoots guns, drives etc and he is only 15. I doubt he'll stab himself or put some pieces in his mouth LOL

Kind of bummed the weapons looks so lame. Not a paint job to be found! Just silver plastic? Is that final?

Are the Gray Helmets enemies of the Yellow Helmets or are they allies fighting against the Soil Ghosts ?
We have reached a point in our economy where businesses have to charge prices no one can afford otherwise they feel it's just not worth their time.

I know, I have some stuff preordered with BBTS but I want it nao!
I keep seeing all the cool photos of the figs and vehicles and the wait is killing me, ha!
I'm really liking those Marine colors.
It's driving me nuts that not everything is available for Sand and/or Marine. I want to get everything in one theme.
I understand your feelings...but this is how mostly this business is done
But don't be sad...I think they will work this out.
