Ones that you can actually purchase now as opposed to some time in the future:

Saw these in the flesh recently. Limited range so far and they are quite big compared to Eureka and Empress but the sculpts are rather nice. Ebob was the sculptor I believe.

Nice figures but i bought the Empress ones. I have the rules but i have not tried them yet. I based all my brits and will try them out once they have been painted.

So does anyone have a comparison of these next to Empress and Eureka?

I'll try an get a comparison photo up for you shortly.  I commissioned and sell these so I am very biased but of the the groups I game with everybody is using these with both Eureka and Empress figures.

You can see my figures from both of these companies in the book SKIRMISH SANGIN. Just to show you I own units by both manufacturers. My brief to eBob was to make figures that work well with both ranges and I think thats what he has done. They are cast by Eureka, so the quality of cast is great and of course designed by eBob who is just great. There's more coming soon and are now available in Australia from elite miniatures as well NZ and in the UK from Radiodishdash.co.uk. If anybody buys some and doesn't think they fit with their Empress/Eureka miniatures I will happily refund their money once they ship them back to me.

How about that for a guarantee. :)

cheers
