I was originally planning on using Imperial Guard figures for my Space Reich force, but these look much better.  I'd like to mix and match these figures with the Late War Germans the have in the works(in theory).  It would make a smashing weird World War 2 army.

No, sir. I don't like them. They look like cheap ripoffs of the Artizan Sturmbattalion Zahn Riflemen.

  I concur sir!

Adding to my comment from last night (too tired then to expand on the thought), I don't like the design as it looks like a ripoff of the Artizan Designs figs. I don't like the plastic that WGF uses (the zombies are a straight PITA to assemble because of it). I prefer the feel of metal to plastic, and I think the Artizan Designs minis are better value.

Preview of the Greatcoat Troopers on Beasts of War.  I'm liking that the standard guns appear to be attatched to the arm, one less thing for me to glue on.  Despite this is a prototype, it still looks fantastic.  I'm looking forward to putting together a force of Weltraumgestützt Waffen?

'd buy some but I'm scared Vader would come looking for his helmet (oh er)

[P_Clapham]

Well he'd have to get through the Waffen first, pretty sure they have first dibs.

That's a fight I'd like to see, depending on numbers I'd back Vader (if lightsabers can stop bullets, which I guess they can)

the sculpt is not bad, but did it have to be coalscuttle....
well, if there are head options, why not

[Christian]

The coat billowing out the front looks... interesting.

I'd like to see the real thing before I start buying any.

A bit of threat necromancy, but Beast of War have a new video review of these guys. This time the actual sprue rather than a 3d print.

I like then, and they are about half the price of GW cadians, so I guess they met their target there.

For me they reminded me of the whole starwars alternative thing that pops up every now and then, in white and black these guys could do very well in all sorts of time and theme settings.

I noticed that they have three bodies a sprue and about thirteen sets of arms and heads . With a little bit of juggling they could have had four bodies which leaves me wondering if this was deliberate to sell more sets

I have a stack of Valhallens unpainted which I still prefer over these.

Ripoff is no problem to me, the horrible gun is. If the gun is remove-friendly I could get some.

I think their goal was to have a selection of heads that will allow a variety of choices but still permit to build "complete unit" of the same model.
