I presume the material is some sort of Bones-ish stuff. Twenty-four pig-faced orcs for £30 isn't a bad deal. Has anyone seen these in the 'flesh'? They look pretty good:

I like them.
-
Not so much pig-faced as pig-headed.
You might say they’ve gone the whole hog...
...I’ll get my coat.

Very nice. I wonder if there are going to be more poses?

Looks like there are four each of six poses in the box. But you can also get those in metal, along with a leader.

I bought them in metal. Nice miniatures.

Are they single piece figures in metal or multi-part?

I did see them. They are a good price but not old school enough for me I am afraid.

Single piece...

I like them, I would call them straight out pig men rather than pig faced orcs though. Maybe pig faced orcs sell better.

Great looking sculpts, but not for me at this moment.

And the armor is such that it could be as easily bronze as uron or steel. Replace the weapins with some bronze age equ8valents, and it's a nice batch of Trollkin for Glorantha gaming :)

Good point - or maybe dark trolls, if the orcs are a fair size.
-
I like the armour, they seem to have only 3 poses, I would have to take the heads off tho and replace with an orc head.

I would assume from the description of the material that these have been produced on a siocast machine so are the same plastic as Plastic Soldier Companies new 15mm ancients and some of the new Warlord figures....

Aha - is that different from the Bones plastic? The mentions of superglue and no need for undercoat were what made me think of Bones.

I picked up the Dungeon Adventurers, too, at the same time. They're made of a nice hard/stiff plastic (not Reaper-like material). I quite like the hirelings (finding a miniature carrying a 10-foot pole was fun).

I've had my eye on them for a while but I can't seem to find any real reviews of their plastic. I trust the sculpts to be lovely, I just wanna be sure it's not PVC.

I thought that was quite funny actually.
They're definitely more like pig men than pig faced orcs. Hoggoblins perhaps? Any idea how they size up against Citadel or Oathmark stuff?
