Mystic Space will exist in a strange sort of place, where instead of being a generic game or a setting-specific game with a bespoke figure range, it will be a setting-specific game without a figure range. 

The idea, as I have discussed before, is that you will basically create your own version of Mystic Space through the miniatures you pick out for the various armies. If you have ever heard the Warhammer guys talk about "my dudes" it is that but tuned up, because your choices of miniatures are not an alternative, they are literally correct :) 

However I want to go a step further. 

I have not sorted out the details yet, but there will be a license available, at no charge, that any manufacturer of miniatures can use to create and sell figures for Mystic Space.

I imagine this will mostly be appealing for 3D print guys, but basically you can sculpt up and sell units branded either as general Mystic Space figures or even as specific unit and character types. So anything from "Scifi infantry usable with games like Mystic Space" to "Mystic Space armoured infantry squad" to "Terra Hold armoured infantry squad" 

If things pick up, this means that you could not only pick out your own figures that hyou like, but you might also be able to pick from several "official" figure options. Maybe one sculptor makes a Terra Hold armoured infantry squad that looks very sleek and high tech, while another makes one that is clunky and archaic looking. 

For the manufacturers of course the benefit is that this will cost you nothing and the conditions will be pretty simple (basically no shovel ware reskins of existing lines unless they actually fit and no lady troopers with their tits out, that sort of thing). However you get the benefit of providing figures that have an audience looking to purchase them. 

More details as we get a bit closer to things happening, but i thought some of you would be interested in this.
