New Foundry Greek Myths vaguely familiar
« on: November 28, 2011, 05:09:17 PM »
Take a look at the new Foundry Greek Myths heroes to go with their new rules.  

Old Copplestone heads with newly sculpted bodies? I know Copplestone faces when I see them.  On the fence about this one but tempted...

I bought the one hero set that they had available last Friday - with a book so as to get free postage. I would have bought the new heroes (Priam, etc) as well had they been available. As it is, I'll have to wait until their next big sale offer, 'cause I'm sure as hell not paying what they normally ask for them - especially not at the rip-off fake NA exchange rates.

Hi there Ax, it's not unusual for a miniatures company to keep a backlog of seperate parts for their sculptors. In this case, the sculptor may not have felt comfortable trying to make better heads than Copplestone, so chose to use some of Mark's master parts.

I couldn't say, you never know, they might be Copplestone sculpts! :)

They're not copplestone sculpts, there are some anatomy issues that his models don't have.

Granted, the goddess pack is better than some of the others and I might get that for lack of a better alternative.

Makes sense. How do the new figs scale next to the Steve Saleh Argonauts?
