They are a real pain to put together. The metal parts do not fit well, so when you are going to build them, that would be a good day to sit down with an herbal tea, or a nice scotch. And be really, really, really chill:)

What parts are metal? Is there just one Goliath in there?

Thanks Gothic!

One Goliath, and one controller. I didn't build mine.

The backpacks, many of the heads, and looted-weapons arms are metal, and all were a pain to work with. Close, but just not quite...

Those bases look well done.
 
Where did the plants and foliage come from ?

Thanks!

The foliage is Woodland Scenics clump, with some static grass (I blended several colours); there are also some Army Painter tufts which are very handy to finish bases.

Cheers!
