This is a hard choice as well.  Oni & horde have great colors and look very well done.  The jungle troopers, on the other hand, show a great deal of skill with a very limited pallette (sp?).  In this case I had to go for the better view.  The overhead Oni shot, which I call the from-the-gamer's-perspective, always drives me a little nuts.  I have found that miniatures are like children--you have to get down to their level.   :)

Good grief, ALL pairings I've seen so far (3 sets) are tough choices!
By the way, what is an Oni? Would I be right in saying it is some sort of Japanese spirit?

Yeah, I think Oni is kind of a catch-all term for Japanese demons and spirit beings.

A very tough choice this one.

I love those jungle snipers but that Oni really sold me on this match-up...I just wish I could have seen a close-up from a head-on angle (Mancha, you said it best)

Excellent entries both.
Now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb...

The Jungle fighters are excellent, the more I look at them the better I like them :)
Well I've lead an evil life, so they say, but I'll outrun the Devil on judgement day.
