Not much to say really...going to be pricey and a little large compared most, but they are a bit pretty.

thats cool, I hope they do some rules on them. Probably wont get many if any at all of the models. I have been tempted to get some batman but they are so darn expensive.
-
Interesting IF you're a master painter or can afford a (very good) pro painting commission to give these fantastic minis the painting job they deserve. Well...Nothing concerning me I'm afraid lol
-
They are lovely, and I've been threatening myself a Marvel project for some time.
Amusingly, I caved at the weekend and bought some Crossover minis at a show (including 'Hoplite' who looks nothing at all like Iron Man ;)), and there's no way they'll scale with these. Ironically, it looks like my impulse buy might end up saving me a lot of money...at least that's how I'm selling it to the wife.

As comic nerd it bums me out that Wolverine is the same height as Iron Man. He's 5'4", 195 lbs. Iron Man stands well over 6' in his armor. I just wish the scale difference was more accurate. I know that sounds silly when talking about made-up characters, but hey.
Otherwise, they're gorgeous!

I'm fairly certain those are two pics photoshopped together. Look at the diferent size of the bases. If you take that into account, the Wolverine mini should be noticeable shorter than Iron Man's.

Great looking models, but not on the poor man's budget....those are in the price range of GW....and I've since stepped away from GW since they cranked their prices up....
I'd rather spend $20 on 3-6 or so Supersystem Figs (depends on which) or at about 4 Crossover Figs for that price!
-
Price isn't the only issue for me, I doubt we'll see a 35mm She Hulk, Trapster or Namor anytime soon. Despite the quality, I'll be sticking with clix.
-
See, I wasn't a fan of the way they went about the DC releases, but I couldn't really fault the models (saying that, I've read some reviews about ropey casting quality online). However, I always said that if ever they got a Marvel licence, I'd cave and buy them. I'm just too much of a fanboy, and I'm more of a collector/painter than a gamer...
Dammit! Now I have to buy more stuff!
-
They also just dropped Deadshot and Copperhead....
-
I've got a bunch of the Knight Models. Both the big Marvel ones, and the Dark Knight series.
They are expensive, but I've cut out almost all my other hobby spending for them.
I've been waiting for smaller Marvel ones for quite some time, so it'll be hard for me to resist...

Knight just posted this to their Facebook page. I think the photos are scaled really badly, but oh my god, that Hulk! https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=466274213472902&set=a.198687623564897.32193.134205016679825&type=1&stream_ref=10 ;D

Yeah, their Hulk is a fantastic version of the character.

Apparently the Hulk is around $50 USD, so that may be a fairly accurate scaling of the images after all....

I hate to say it, but, they are nice enough to provide the rules for free. Heroclix work just as well for the gaming side of things. No where near as nice of models though.
