Nice one Warlord, and thank you for the comparison pic.

Didn't want to make a new thread for this since it's a bit of non news so far, but I figured it would be worth mentioning here, anyway Duncan Jones is teasing a 2000AD movie, probably Rogue Trooper

Do the figures have an integral circular base?

I saw Duncan Jones tweet about it this morning, really looking forward to this if it happens

Warlord has withdrawn them for now. But with rumours of a film they may see the light of day again.

@ Olyreed - thanks for the pic, that really helps.

Looks like the new figs are a pretty good match for the Mongoose ones, which I was always happy to mix with the Foundry figures so that should give a nice amount of flexibility. The only one I still have doubts about is Wulf with his broken shoulder, but otherwise I am more tempted by these than I thought I would be.

Some interesting new sets up for pre-order, Darkuss's Howlers and second string SD agents, plus a build-a-mutie box:

I'm slowly coming round to this a bit more, but as I will never play the game itself, I wish the figures were available separately.

Oh, well. That's what eBay was invented for I guess...

I wonder if we can help each other out then. I have quite a few figures so was looking for a way to get just the cards. The Stixx brothers for example, I have the Foundry and Heroclix ones. So, if boxes were bought we could split the figures and cards. PM me if this is of any interest.

I got my starter set today.  Here are some comparison pics of the Warlord figs compared with the old Wargames Foundry ones.  The Foundry figs are those on the left.  The last pic shows a Warlord Gates of Antares fig compared to the Warlord Johnny.
In general the Foundry figs are MUCH bigger and I don't think they are very compatible:

Thank you so much for posting these pictures. You don’t have by chance some old citadel 2000 AD minis handy? I would love to see how these compare to my collection. Probably the Citadel minis are even smaller than the new Warlord minis.
