Once upon a time, in the darkest alleys of Newport, two brothers led the sinful life of crime and terror. Such were their feats that the watching eye of the Mysterious Man turned their way and he nominated them the ambassadors of his evil empire in Pulp City. The goons became his trusted lieutenants, but when Heavy Metal invaded Kodo Island, the kingpin didn't hesitate for a moment and unleashed the brothers on the heroes, side by side with his monstrous creations. The rampaging dinosaur, blinded with rage and bloodlust, tore the goons to pieces before the might of C.O.R.E. stopped him. One of the brothers was beyond help, but the other one still lived and heroes retrieved him from the island. To sustain his life, his body was rebuilt upon the small atomic reactor, the nuclear heart. Thus Nuclear Jones was born, half-man, half-machine, with a debt of returned life to be paid off.

Very cool image. The mini will make a very nice counterpoint to Nuke, so I have to consider what colour scheme will do that with my red-armoured Nuke.

I assume the other brother is the aforementioned barely contained villainous nuclear force?

C.O.R.E. and Nuclear Jones are November release, right?

Oh, no. That can't be. The other brother was dead :twisted:

There appears to be the resin or primed version in the Gencon thread.

This is one of my TOP 3 favorite minis in the line. James van Schaik and Vesa made this one shine!

With the March box of Lady Cyburn and Captain Hadron, Heavy Metal will be the first complete Level 12 team.

It will be very interesting to witness the synergy of a completely Heavy Metal level 12 team! What we need is a time altering supreme to help March arrive quicker!
