Thanks for that.

A good scale shot with a couple other manufacturer's figs would be awesome, and greatly appreciated.

Looking forward to part 2.

Looking good!  Reminds me of Pig Iron's System Troopers but more refined and graceful.

Very nice job.  I look forward to making a squad or two... or a platoon.  ;-)

Also like that the weapons are not ridiculously large.  That ruins otherwise nice minis all too often.

Those are looking nice.  How did you find the casting quality?  My last Puppets War order had a significant amount of flash and bubbles.

Guess I lucked out with the new product. No bubbles/holes. Very minimal flash.

Do you have a size comparison shot? I have been thinking of ordering but my google-fu didn't bring up any size pics and so now the order is just pending ...

Not yet. Looks like I'll get some painting in tonight so the comparison shot is coming in part 2.

Super.  I think I'll take a chance on them.
