Humble Bundle has a habit of dropping enormous 3D‑printing bundles, and this Skullforge Studios Arsenal Mega Bundle definitely fits the usual pattern. It’s actually a full game line in one go: mechs, infantry, terrain, freelancers, armaments, and the complete ruleset via Blaster Vol. 7: Arsenal.
If you’ve been circling Arsenal (Skullforge’s modular, print‑your‑own skirmish game of mercenary fireteams and hulking MCV mechs) this bundle is basically the entire starter ecosystem dumped on your desk for the price of a takeaway. Humble lists 35 items, normally valued at $309, all unlocked at the $25 tier.
But what’s actually in the bundle?
- MCVs (Mechs): Stiletto, Takoba, Saber, Tanto, Machete, Kriegsmesser, Hatchet Mk.2, Belvedere, Katana, Kukri, Khopesh, Gladius, Scimitar… each fully modular, each with weapon loadouts.
- Fireteams: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta. Modular infantry squads you can kitbash to taste.
- Vanguards: Forte, Methusela, Forge. Skullforge’s “legendary warriors,” the heroic centrepieces of the battlefield.
- Terrain: Wrecked mechs, mech bay and crew, crashed transport, Metro Zone District. Enough scatter and LOS blockers to make a proper table.
- Extras: Armaments Vol. 1-3, freelancers, bases and nameplates, Qpid grunts, Hunter Specialist.
- Rules: Blaster Vol. 7: Arsenal, the current ruleset.
If you’re already deep into 3D printing, this is a no‑brainer. Skullforge’s sculpts are clean, modular, and designed for hobbyists who like to tinker. The MCVs in particular are built for swapping weapons and posing without the usual STL headaches.
If you’re not a printer person, this bundle is still interesting… but only if you’re willing to become one. Arsenal is a print‑to‑play game. The rules are digital, the minis are digital, and the expectation is that you’ll print your own army. There’s no physical product here.
The game sits in that sweet spot between indie skirmish design and big‑toy spectacle. Fireteams are small (five troopers and one mech), which keeps games quick. The mechs are the stars, but infantry matter; positioning, cover, and combined arms all play into the flow of the game. Humble’s description emphasises “badass mercenaries” and “contract payouts,” which gives the game a slightly pulpy, corporate‑warfare flavour rather than the usual, tired grimdark.
It’s also modular by design. Skullforge’s sculpting philosophy is “give players parts, not prescriptions,” and that comes through in the bundle’s sheer variety.
The MSRP list is almost comical: dozens of items in the $7-$11 range, plus terrain kits and the rules. Even if you only print a handful of MCVs and a fireteam or two, you’ve already outpaced the $25 buy‑in. If you’re the kind of hobbyist who likes building entire tables, the terrain alone justifies the cost.
Purchases support the World Wildlife Fund, which is a nice bonus if you’re already planning to grab the bundle.
All in all, I think that this is one of Humble’s better miniatures‑and‑terrain bundles: coherent, complete, and actually usable as a full game rather than a random STL grab bag. If you’ve ever wanted to try Arsenal, or you simply enjoy printing mechs and modular infantry, this is the most cost‑efficient way to get the entire line.
