Hydra Holiday Sale and New Zenithian Walkers
November 23,, 2022
Greetings, Cadets!
Hydra Miniatures is running its annual Holiday Sale with 20% off all items. The sale runs from Friday, November 24th through Friday, December 1st (11:59 EST). All items, including new releases, are on sale, and prices will be marked accordingly. No coupon code is necessary.
The Zenithian invasion force is getting much-needed reinforcement in the form of massive tripod walkers. These huge multi-part 3D printed resin models were sculpted by the immensely talented Phillip Beauchamp. The walkers stand 4.25” (107mm) tall and come in three variants: Zenithian Walker with Disintegrators, Zenithian Walker with Claws, and Zenithian Walker with Heat Rays. These models are 32mm (heroic 28mm scale) but could be used in a variety of other scales. The ground will tremble as the Zenithian war machines destroy everything in their path.
As always, Hydra Miniatures is grateful for your support. We wish you a happy holiday season, and hope to bring you many new products in 2024 such as the Robot Legion fleet for War Rocket, 30mm Space Pirates for Retro Raygun, and possibly another epic project!

Hot New Releases from Hydra
November 22,, 2022
We have been busy at Hydra HQ and have a lot of new Galacteer releases for Retro Raygun. We are very excited to introduce the Astro Angels, an all-female branch of the Galacteers, complete with a sergeant, an engineer and a support gunner armed with an Atomic Grenade Launcher.
In addition, our core Galacteer range has been expanded with a beautiful new sculpt for Jane Hunter. Sculptor Ari Nielsson did an amazing job on the Angels and the updated Jane Hunter. The original Jane model is still available and has been moved to our Special Editions category. Finally, we are so happy to announce the arrival of everyone's favorite mechanical pet, Max the robo-dog. Super sculptor Phillip Beauchamp nailed the retro look of Max. The miniatures were expertly painted and photographed by master painter Matthew Leahy. All miniatures are 32mm (heroic 28mm scale) and cast in lead-free pewter.
As always, Hydra Miniatures is grateful for your support. We wish you a happy holiday season and hope to bring you many new products in 2023!

New Releases and Price Increase
Julyr 25, 2021
Greetings cadets! We have a lot of important news for you from Hydra HQ:
New Releases
We are excited to release three new miniatures for our Imperial faction from our 32mm Retro Raygun range: Belus, arch magus of Marduk, Dragon Man warrior 1, and Dragon Man warrior 2.
Price Increase
We have been in business for over 13 years and many of our prices are the same as when we first launched. However, the prices of artist commissions, raw materials, and labor have increased dramatically. For example, the cost of the pewter alloy we use has increased by 225% in the last year alone. Therefore, we will be raising prices on most items effective August 7th. Some codes will see a minimal increase, while others will see a larger price increase. We will be transitioning some larger models from pewter to resin in order to control cost. As always, we appreciate your support!

It's been a while since we've released anything new, but we have some great products available starting tomorrow, Friday, October 23rd. First off, we have Azeemah, Imperial Princess for our 32mm Imperials for Retro Raygun. The Daughter of Marduk was masterfully sculpted by John Winter and painted by the immensely talented Matthew Leahy.
In addition, we have two new releases from Solar Studios—Stellar Bystanders and Seated Spacefarers. Both sets were sculpted by Aaron Brown and are extremely useful in a variety of games. We especially like the seated figures that could be used as vehicle drivers, rocket pilots, or simply seated civilians. We are super excited about these new releases and we hope you are as well!
