Thanks, folks! More to come. We should see the mounted versions back from Bob this week. We'll get them painted and photographed ASAP.

Lovely figures, just what I need for buclking a few swashes. I'm not keen on the odd looking bases, does anyone know if the bases are in one piece?

I recall that they touted the line with pre-moulded bases, but these look different. Maybe they've switched and provide it as a second piece.

they look to me like moulded bases al Reaper's broccoli baes the set within a cup like base.  strange looking - almost like they are standing on the lid of a 55 gallon drum

otherwise, they appear quite acceptable.

The bases are molded on. One of the ideas with the Blue Moon line was to provide affordable boxed sets that appeal to newcomers to the hobby. Not having to base and flock the minis was one of the goals.

The figures can be removed from the bases using either a jeweler's saw or a grinder. We understand that for some compatibility will be an issue.
