are now "retired" or banned?

hanging from their necks or belts?
Below are only a few of the possibilities readily available to you.

freakin' cool!

A Maschine Krieger fansite with some kick ass
models.
Now if only some enterprising miniature manufacturer would be inspired by
this particular model
and put out some 28mm powered armor miniatures. It's a dream I have...
Krueger's Krieger SF3D/MaK
Zbv3000 Models and Tips An S.F.3.D. site full of very cool models.

RUS_SE001!
Ironically, it was intended as a test sculpt, not meant as a production
model. However, due to many requests, and not wanting to pass up a chance of
revenue, it has been released! Hopefully it will sell well enough to merit
an officer and heavy weapons variant. Pleeeeease! I'm not asking for much! Just
an officer with machine pistol, a sniper, a squad support weapon, an anti-armor
weapon, a flamethrower, etc.
