Title: Re: Modiphius Star Trek Romulans now painted (updated 25/10/17)

Accidently put this on the Fantasy board by mistake last week. Now on the right board!

These new figures are being sent out and I received mine today in the post. Four box sets containing the TOS bridge crew, the TNG bridge crew, a box of Klingon warriors and a box of Romulan troops. All 32mm resin.
Size wise, here's how they compare. Modiphius are straight off the sprue and put on a base - hence the missing arms!

Looks like the Klingons will tower over most figures. Nice crisp castings though.

Thanks, nozza.  Those look nice.  I take it that those two figures have separate right arms?

These are looking very tempting. Not cheap though.

The majority of the figures have separate arms - think it's only Picard and some Romulans that don't.

Very impressive, and convincing likenesses.

Completed the remainder of the Klingons in the box. Gone for the uniform look from Star Trek 3 onwards (so lots of shades of gray  ;) ).

Very nice.

Does the licence cover Discovery and the new film timeline?

I believe the license will cover Discovery but not the JJverse timeline.

Very nice work! 8)

With Discovery being on now, there has been some talk in my RPG group of finally starting a Star trek campaign, which I wouldn't mind DM-ing. And being the miniature-oriented type, I've been tentatively checking the market for crew miniatures (28mm) and ships (small!).

I'm liking these minis, but I'll be after some more generic ones, as the series ones are to easily recognizable (although conversions are not all that hard; just some headswaps would go a long way).

I believe the license will cover Discovery but not the JJverse timeline.

Different Klingons then... ;)

According to Chris Birch of Modiphius - No.

Modiphius is planning at least generic Federation types.
Like security, engineering, medical etc. with different heads.

Apparently TOS Klingons are in the pipeline. Speaking to the guys at Colours last month, in the next release will be a Borg boxset, TNG away team crew, Star Trek villains (Lore, Khan and the Borg Queen etc) and one other set.

For ships, check out Attack Wing or for more detailed ships, the Eaglemoss range.

Here I'm using both for my Attack Wing Federation fleet.

Finally finished the remaining five Romulan figures. Really struggled to find pictures online of the uniform that they are wearing, so went for a metallic tunic to match the standard grey clothing. I think it works.

Thanks for that, but none of those uniforms displayed match the last 5 Romulans I painted.

The closest I could find were these from Star Trek Nemesis.

The trousers and boots almost match up, but the tunic is still wrong.
