Post by: supervike on 03 August 2011, 03:20:16 PM: Those are very well done.

To bad that 'retro' Sci Fi doesn't really appeal to me. Although I do seem to miss out on all these great items!

Post by: dampfpanzerwagon on 03 August 2011, 05:46:03 PM: These are some of the very best and most characterful miniatures I have seen for a very long time. I am in awe of the sculpting.

I am seriously thinking about buying these as a stand alone collection - I usually collect 40mm miniatures.

It's been relatively quick and reasonable for me, but I live so close to Hydra Miniatures they could practically throw 'em to me...!

One imagines that they will have distribution through all the standard international retail channels.

Post by: Dr Mathias on 03 August 2011, 07:56:31 PM: Not a genre I collect at all... but I'm reconsidering now!

Post by: Tom Reed on 03 August 2011, 08:54:24 PM: I'm hoping that some of my minions will be able to aquire some of these for me while at GenCon this weekend. Oh! and some of the new Space Pirate ships for War Rocket!

Post by: Sinewgrab on 05 August 2011, 06:04:09 AM: Ah, geez. THis might be the last straw to create a new genre for playing in...hmm, maybe if I base them for Mars, I can use the terrain from my VSF and Chaos with them, so I won't need new terrain, and they could mix with my Tau...

Dammit! Quit making me think of new projects! I am already working on Fallout, GW Daemons, Free Norwegians, Star Wars, Grymn, and Hinterland in unison now!

Post by: Cultist #3 on 07 August 2011, 07:40:51 PM: Just waiting for them to be released! ;D
Title: Re: Hydra Miniatures Valkeeri
Post by: Roebeast45 on 07 August 2011, 11:26:54 PM: I picked them up at Gen Con and they are certainly fine miniatures. The casting is very clean and the minis are beautifully sculpted. Great job Hydra!

Post by: Froggy the Great on 07 August 2011, 11:34:18 PM: Are the hands sculpted separately?
Title: Re: Hydra Miniatures Valkeeri
Post by: Roebeast45 on 07 August 2011, 11:43:52 PM: Yes, on the troopers they are separate. But they attach easily and really add to the pose of each figure.
Title: Re: Hydra Miniatures Valkeeri
Post by: Froggy the Great on 08 August 2011, 12:31:11 AM: Ok, so there's the possibility of unique poses then if one has two of the same sculpt. Thanks.
