I wouldn't normally comment on figures I didn't like because I prefer to be positive most of the time; but...
Those really are overpriced bits of shit. Foundry's really lost the plot.  :o


That makes me crack up. :lol:

On Frothers the suspicion is that the Maid Marion figure is an old Queen Victoria one with a head swap. I wouldn't be surprised...

Wow those are really inspiring..................... :lol:
The poses are so dynamic, a real fresh take on the Robin Hood legend.................. Ok I can only be SO sarcastic!
I agree with Matakishi that they are pretty crap. In fact I wouldn't even use them to Zombie them :mrgreen:

Wht a great idea :)


And its very cheap to do. A roll of woodchip costs about £2.50 - £3.00. And you will have enough off one roll to cover a very large table. :)


Ha! you've persuaded me. I love cheap, especially when you can get such good results  :wink:

Yes, I agree & I was a little reluctant to be so negative. I normally try to stay positive [even about the Evil Empire, some of whose products I really love :freak: ], but I was genuinely disappointed by these.

Foundry always used to be the first place I looked when thinking of buying new stuff, but these days...... :(

On the plus side, Martin has gotten much better. I have the Crusader gladiators he recently did and I like them a lot. The arena officials are ace!

On the other hand, it is certainly cheeky to say the least to charge six bucks a pop for someone's old "homework" if that's what these really are.
