I REALLY like them! 

And if they are 'pre-paints', those are the best ones I have seen yet! :o

Thought Hammer had the game on sale....  $35 I believe...

Ooh, I had forgot about this. Has any body bit the bullet and bought it yet? Must say I am really tempted.

the paintjob is the usual showcase paintjob for photos, that nearly all companies do for their games.

So you didn't know even if the miniatures come prepainted how the turn out,
hence we need an in hand evaluation. (maybe someone has bought one right now ?)

There are some tantalising 'glancing' shots of the Mayan Princess but not a proper one.....  >:(

mmm the unpainted version didn't look so great... maybe, as sometimes happens, the painter was so good to turn mediocre minis in great one! :(
I'm not very convinced on the quality, right now... I have to see them painted by someone... else!

I don't think they look like 28 mm.
Hard to tell from the pictures, no points of reference to compare against.
But if they are they look very, very tall and slim.
Not sure I like them.

I think they are a little TOO different to what I'm used to in minis. Don't see them fitting in with anything really.
