You could always buy a box and just keep a couple of sprues for yourself and sell the rest either on here or eBay, as I've seen others do before, or wait for others to do that and buy a couple of their sprues? Or buy them and hope they come in useful down the line? I'm already thinking of different uses for when I get mine, in the fantasy era, evil knights in black like Bavmordas forces in Willow

[Elbows]

I fully intend to kitbash mine into fantasy figures, since I don't game historicals.  I love anything unique and a bit different.

Great, now I'm thinking about how to build Erik and his men!  Greek helmets, capes, Viking bodies?

Yeah, I'll likely grab a box once they're out for retail - plastic sets are affordable enough that even if I only have a planned use for a handful, the rest will almost certainly get used up one way or another.

I have every intention of doing this myself too! That movie's costume design really captured my imagination as a sprout.

Why not just use the bodies from this box, using Greek style helmets and a different paint job for Eric's force?

Seems some of the heads could be used for GoT Sun/spear southerners .

Can't really disagree, Humakt. I think they'll be good 'nuff for most applications, but it would've been nice to have some extra polish in some areas.

I wonder if people would buy add-on bits of weapons with moulded-on hands, or at least closed fists for drilling out and sticking wire spears through...?

They have put artwork picture up on facebook page,I've asked if we can have cleare pics of the miniatures.

Working on. We will put new pictures next week. Meanwhile we are sculpting Alexander Nevsky and Infantry Command

[Nord]

It's perfectly possible to cast gripping hands and spears together - GB include them in the plastic Saxon boxset, and Perry medievals grip the hafts of their weapons well enough, to name but two.

Not really a Medieval Novgorodian but i got a picture of a upcomming FireForge Mongol general - Tsubodai 1175–1248.

Best regards Michael

Is it just me or any one else see this?:

If you just swap the heads these looks like warhammer High Elves ? 







Really nice sketches, hope the comming miniatures lives up to them.

[tyrionhalfman]

Yeah I think you've found GW's historical inspiration for their high elf armour style

It's uncanny! I always thought the elves were meant to be like some kind of hittites or assyrians or something, but shows what I know.

Yes,well spotted,but they will be cheaper ,and now a gw hit squad will be after you,
