I'm still not convinced they'll fit that well with my existing stuff.
Has anyone actually seen the Helter Skelter in the flesh so to speak.As I'm a intrigued to why the Dredd detailing is Photoshoped onto the Dredd figure?As its not a difficult detail to CAD or Physically sculpt in the first place.

Hope they do a few East Meg Judges and the war robots.  >:D

Hopefully so, given that Orlok is part of the initial wave release.

The Villains pack is a little odd in terms of composition ...why have a single dark judge...a single member of the angel gang? It works as a teaser release I guess, but as a gamer you’d want the others so will a future wave have the other 3 dark judges as a pack, or 4 figure pack which means you end up with a duplicate?

Despite this oddity, I’m pleased with the sculpts, and hope the launch is a real success, so that it leads to a healthy schedule of additional releases.

These are starting to look tempting, I might even go in for the block gangs even though there are numerous other figures that could stand in.

Hopefully, as others have said, East Meg will get a decent look in. I managed to get the Mongoose set just before it went tit's up, and while they're variable they do look good on the table.

Some Kleggs might be nice too, the old GW one's look more like mutant space gecko's size wise now.

I have nothing negative to say about these sculpts. They look even better than the "Strontium Dog" sculpts, which I really liked. I'm glad my birthday is in November because now I know where my money's going.

I am kind of getting excited about this on one hand but, on the other if the figures won't work with anything I have already I might be better off using my Future Wars collection as a Euro City setting. I've often looked at the old Foundry Ranges and wanted to buy them but they did not seem to have enough to game with (and the price :o).

Oh, Diehard miniatures produces a few good alternatives to Foundry. Not too many characters, but a few nice civilians. And here and there a Mean Machine or Anderson, along with a few civilians with Souther Helmets from the Rogue Trooper-verse.

I'll probably use those as supporting cast.

Pleasant sculpts but..Those prices look like they belong in a graphic novel. :o

bernard. It's worth thaking a look at both Akula's and AndyM's threads as they both have some seriously useful and intelligent interpretations of the subject.
As for judge's its a piece of cake to convert existing figures into a unified force .These are plasic imperial guard and a converted judge Minty(great bit of fan fiction.)
Both AndyM and Akula are very good at unifying multiple sources into a cohesive look.

Maybe it's my mid-life crisis but the photos just make the Citadel ones form back in the day look better and better...

Everything looks great! Glad to see some 2000AD minis with human proportions.

Has anyone seen how they scale up with previous range of figures?

They're 35mm, based upon the ones I've seen, and very nicely proportioned without the 'over the top-ness' of other sculpts, like the Strontium Dog ones.
Remember: the dice are not your friends!
