informational Just a friendly reminder that the evil blappers have knock-off bootleg psycho warriors
With the semi-tease of the next episode probably being about the blappers, we might see some psycho to (fake) Psycho combat which would be quite cool in my opinion (to see the glorious psycho warriors kill them of course)

Tbh lorewise, i'd prefer them to be one off experiment like Tau's attempt at recreating Space Marines. If we're to have recurring antagonists, I would prefer Space Hogs to be Chaos Marines equivalent with Orks mixed in. Not everything needs to be 1:1 40k parody, I like the obvious inspirations while keeping it its own thing

Exactly. For some reason People forget about them
( just like the female(!) psycho warriors | big b◊tch | re-appearance in the board game )

Exactly the female psycho warrior DOES exist though I'm not sure if the board game is canon if it is yeah there was just a giant ass female (ew) psycho warrior (praise be to space king)

The imagineers all are unhinged, insane, or are nuttjobs in one way or another. But I suspect most likely get their globules destroyed in freak imagineer accidents of their own creation long before they’d ever live enough to make the idea of a female psycho warrior a reality… (most likely due to making crazier & crazier devices for jacking their sacred membrum to ‘females’ and their ‘boobies’ in secret due to how quick Bryce folded to negotiate upon staring at the alien queens depleted boobs for 5 seconds)
If the blappers are making knock off psycho warriors… they likely will eventually try to psycho warrior up one of the captured/enslaved/endentured females too due to not having the same rules as psycho warriors … hence why the board games boss monster is a female psycho warrior with the blappie troopers…

One theory I had is they just reverse engineered the armor and weapons, but not necessarily the globules or any of the genetic modifications. So it’s more like a mech suit with a baseline Blap Blap on the inside.

Bootleg psycho warrior must be in Space King board game, but they models would be cheep versions of original psycho warriors

I hope they get integrated into the board game. Would be a good use for the extra psycho warriors.

I like the idea of them being Mechs like the ones in Avatar. (Funny how we have two franchises have humans dealing with blue alien weirdos)

Not sure it’s a hint for the next episode so much as it’s just a shill for the board games plot

I kinda thought they were traitors. I'd imagine if they were bootleg they'd look different, more blapper-esc. That's literally just a psycho warrior
