The GodBeast: Radioactive Kabuto Mushis

The once great Empire of Man has fallen and with it, their home world, the ecumenopolis Gaia. Eons later, the planet-city remains an irradiated husk, nothing more than crumbling ruins of steel and concrete. But, Gaia is not dead...Those creatures of the lowest orders: Coleoptera, Blattodea, Siphonaptera, and so on, have not only survived, they have prospered.

While countless generations of exposure to radiation has expedited their evolution, hardening their chitin and developing their brains, it has had the opposite effect on the descendants of those who built the ecumenopolis. Hideously mutated, debased and primitive, these pinkish things barely resemble their Homo sapiens ancestors. 

Such encounters are rare, but when they happen, the result is always the same; death. Each species believe themselves to be the rightful owner of this wasteland and see their enemy as vermin to be eradicated.

The combat is swift and brutal. No quarter is given and none is expected.

The encounter provides to be a foolish mistake for the small band of mutant humanoids. A scarabaeiform larva Kabuto Mushi is an equal match for a lone adult humanoid. But, adult Kabuto Mushis? Between their massive strength, dense chitin, and razor sharp claws, the humanoids are quickly dispatched.

Almost as soon as it has begun, the battle is over. Survival on this decaying planet is determined only by merciless savagery.

My Radioactive Green and Pink Kabuto Mushis from the GodBeast arrived today and holy hell are they rad. The neon pink and slime green colors just pop like crazy, it's got an awesome early 90's vibe going. Seriously, you need to snag these dudes. I'd be amazed if these didn't fly out of the shop, leaving you stuck like a chump paying $25 a pop for them off eBay. Another sweet thing about these Kabuto Mushis is the green matches the most recent Veridiohm colorway from Weaponeers of Monkaa, which makes for some cool builds:
