Yep they could even fit into on of those victorian martian adventures....

There you have it! I already have the Wargames Factory Zulu War British Firing Line (got the box as a freebie for pre-ordering the Romans).

Now I have an excuse for getting them out of the box, AND buy some Bog Raiders  lol

Nah, it was just a case of trying each one until I got the best fit, I did have to snip a bit of the tab/post off the tail as it was too long.
Plus they do need a little gap filling around the based of the tail as well, nothing major, just a tiny bit to smooth it out.

I find some of the hands to be a bit tricky, myself. Not enough room for pinning.

Yeh they can be a little fiddly to pin, tho I only really pinned the left hand on the 2 handed wep one, as one hand had a bit on it that plugged into the hand, the same on the axe one.
In retrospect I could have clipped them smooth and repinned.

 :D shiny, i'll keep these things in consideration, i am looking for some decent mini's to represent fimir in a 28mm scale (especially as GW's own Sculptors messed up with their metals and made them too big)

Those ones will fit on a 25mm Square base wont they?

They do come on a small integral base, but thats easy to blend into another small base.
I don't see why they wouldn't fit.

Great job! Damn, those Bog Raiders are built! Must be all the lean meat in their diets.

They look great mate! Well done!

It reminds me I need to paint mine up too. I remember having alot of trouble with their tails.
They are great sculpts though - looking forward to getting the new King and reinforcement models that were just released.

Cheers,
Ben.
