I'm rather enjoying the Reaper Chronoscope / Reich of the Dead mini line thus far.  Plans are revolving around a Undead WWII Supersystem Henchmen group, looks like I've found the ringleader.  I would say brains of the outfit, but judging by that temple wound he doesn't have much left.   lol

I hadn't really looked at the Chronoscope range before this thread, but there are actually a lot of very useful figures there.

Does anyone know if Reaper have a UK/European distributor?

Our own Bossco101's Miniature Heroes webshop stcoks the Chronoscope line. Great service from him too.  :)

There are a lot of nice figures in the Reaper catalogue, but also a lot of poo. As a gentleman I will withold my opinion of which category this falls into.

You know, my major problem with the Reaper line, and I have some of the figs, is that the sizes are totally inconsistent. This isn't just the case with Chronoscope - my wife's a huge fan of their Fantasy line and has shown me the same problems with it. Height can vary anywhere from close to true 25s to 34mm in some cases, and that's just the basic stuff.

I take Bob's line on this one. Lot of good stuff. Lot of poo.

Not sure what I feel about this one, although I have to say it's certainly an original approach to the subject.

There are some fantastically gifted sculptors at Reaper. 

This one is a bit amateurish.  I still concede it's far better than I could do, but I've seen better work from folks that don't get paid to do it.
