I hope I can order the new plastic female gunfighters at the same time.

I got my bundle from Northstar the day after Bad Squiddo sent me the cowgirls. They are not as compatible as a the male ones in terms of the Stargrave arms being a little bulky for for the cowgirl figures. I also tried an eisenkern (Wargames Atlantic)  body on  cowgirl legs and they fit pretty well and the body matched well with the Stargrave arms too. Going to try necromunda arms on the cowwgirls tonight and see how that works

So how do they match?

A heads up for anyone who hadn't already twigged to it, WizKids' plastic D&D behir model is a nearly-perfect proxy for the "centisaur" you'll need in scenario 3.  Technically short half of its legs, but the twelve it's got is plenty in my opinion.  Kind of glad I never did finish that conversion I was going to do to use it as a crewthing in Rogue Stars game, saves me having to buy another.

It's their usual soft-ish plastic, but owing to size and bulk it isn't flexible enough to worry about the paint cracking.

That’s a good suggestion about using the Behir for a centisaur. Reaper also makes one that could stand in:

I've done that one as well, and while it's much cheaper it's also a bit fiddly and the thinner limbs make them a lot more prone to flexing during use, which can get rough on your paint job.
