Thanks  :)

How are they size wise? Similar to These (same height as Zvezda figs) or towards the HO end of the scale like Airfix figs?

I posted pics on my blog but didn't think to size them against anything.....Plastic Soldier Review put them at 24mm.

Thanks. There wasnīt too much Flash on the sprue i got, but still a bit more than was fun and the plastic they are made of is quite soft which means if you get the angle and pressure a but wrong the wrong bits get sliced off.

Thanks for the pics, the first clear ones Iīve seen so far. :)
At PSR they also say that the Orion pirate set has an average height of 24mm but alongside the Mars set they look like children. Iīll take a comparison pic of the mars and Orion figs and post it .
