The document recounts an encounter with Mike from Monster Fight Club, who presented a miniature sculpt that sparked the development of the Cyberpunk RED miniature line and the Combat Zone skirmish game. Over the following year, Monster Fight Club produced numerous sculpts and packaging designs, which inspired the Cyberpunk RED team to create an NPC book detailing the characters' backstories. This initiative echoed a previous project, Edgerunners Inc, which focused on in-universe characters in the Cyberpunk 2020 setting.

At the time, I was so focused on doing a good job and nervous about working with gaming legends that I didn’t think much about the encounter. I should have, though, because miniatures maker Monster Fight Club had created the small chunk of plastic, a fantastic cyberpunk sculpt.
