Got mine today..yay!
What a nice set of plastics and so many options. It’s gonna take a while to build them!
Anyway, I’ve made a start at least:

I knew you’d be first off the mark SP
Looks great. Must get the set, but the thought of making and painting 60 of them is a bit daunting
Sounds like a great kit though?

Thanks for your comments guys!
@Captain Blood
Lol! I am waiting for my transfers to arrive but couldn’t wait any longer, they are phenomenal. The amount of options and the resulting variety is mind blowing. Personally I can’t wait to do some kit bashing with some of the ancient Victrix kits I’ve got
If I can recommend any plastic kit it’s gonna be this one. In my humble opinion a new benchmark in the hobby.

Wow. High praise indeed
Better even than their Romans?

They seemed to have pulled all stops here..the level of detail and the poses are second to none. The Romans are great but on top of this quality you get an astonishing amount of options.
That’s 11/10 for me. A must have for Dark Ages fans in my book. I’m sure there will be criticism of some sort as always in our hobby but for me that’s the best plastic kit I’ve bought so far. And I have very many..(ask my wife!)

Very immersive painting! It's imo a phenomal kit and can't wait to see how their Normans will look.

There have been reservations about the chain mail on these models. But if this picture is anything to go by once painted the chain mail appears to look fine.
Lovely paint job by the way!

Standard SP brilliance yet again!
Any problems with air pockets stopping the paint getting deep into the chain holes? That's something I wondered about when looking at them.

@Paul
Thanks mate! And no, I haven’t noticed any particular problems in this regard.
I decided to get rid of the shield as long as I haven’t any transfers
