Those look nice.  Scale shot of assembled fig might help, perhaps alongside (say) a infantryman from some absurd Grimdark far future setting?  :)

I suppose if you painted them right they might make nice Rebel Commandos:-

Very nice figures.

Because these are NOT-Steel Legion, and the "French" ones will be NOT-Vostroyans or NOT-Death Korps of Krieg depending on which hat they have on.

Makes sense to me, even if I don't think they are terribly good sculpts - they will sell like mad for proxies.

Guessing you're not the target market, UVS  lol

As others have pointed out, they're obviously aiming for the apparently lucrative GW Imperial Guard proxy market - though one would think a heavy weapon/command box for the raumjager would be worthwhile before moving on?

It's about taste. Apparently you don't like the concept sketches and that's fine for me.
I for one would love to see Sci fi French Imperial Guard !
Fancy uniforms, honour, dicipline, blood, mud, in the meat grinder and as currency the low price of human life. ( Pretty much the human history since the begining of time. At least as i see it. )

It certainly seems to work for Anvil. The heavy weapons would work for West Texas Cheerleaders ^__^
