Those early renders look amazing.

I can't imagine the final product will turn out that detailed...but if it does...my mind will be completely blown.

Yeah, I was about to say:

While my knowledge regarding tabletop minis is fairly limited (mostly to D&D 3.5-4 minis), I would think that that kind of detail would cost quite a pretty penny.

And the article cites that one of the other problems was balancing out quality VS cost...

Depends on the company and materials. Reaper puts out some very quality minitaures.....at reasonable prices. Games workshop puts out some quality miniatures and their prices are insane. Infinity produces some very nice minis, and their prices are inbetween. Depends.

There are so many variables even after the sculpt is finalized. Metal or plastic? Spin cast or injection? Type of plastic? On as prune or individual molds?

The big thing is finding a company that will answer these questions for you based on the needs you give them along with the next best two or three options.

Sounds like GB gets this and is working well with CGL to actually move the product foward.

ganger looks cool but that rigger is a fail. the drone's rotors look like a manhole cover! they'd have been better off putting flying drones on their own clear stands like jetbikes/gundrones in 40k

Medics this time, huh? Definitely a bit more common on other runner teams versus assassins or coyotes.

Just got it and really liked the intro to Combat Medicine 101 by the Doc Wagon HTR trainer :)

Well one point of interest from just skimming: this release is dual-statted for SR4 and SR5. Which is interesting as Assassin's Primer and Coyotes were SR5 only, so this one sticks out like a sore thumb because of that...

Consistency dammit!!!

It was probably in the pipeline around the same time as other dual-statted books like Firing Line.

Does this mean Aetherology will also be dual-statted?

It could be this was written up earlier than the others so they were looking at the transition more at that time or maybe they are doing the dual stats as there is still a strong 4th ed base that has not jumped over onto 5th yet?

It's kind of nice in any case.

Slight issued with the Aged Negative Quality. The suggested ages are based on humans and don't take the other metas into account. Could there even be an aged dwarf or elf at this point?

Started a thread over in Rules discussing the NQ here

Edit: As for aged dwarf or elf, maybe a level 1 aged for dwarf, depending on how you adjust it for their lifespan, otherwise they pretty much would have to be a spike baby and the elf definitely would need to be a spike baby to even get close to be aged given their projected lifespan.
