Anyone know what scale North Stars Fantasy Worlds are ?

I'm considering picking up their elve but they'll be in a force with GW LOTR Elves which are true 28mm

North Star's Frostgrave and Oathmark series of fantasy figures are comparable with most 28mm.

They are moderately chunky, and the plastic sets are a converter's heaven. Easy to build, lots of spare bits, all interchangeable with the other sets.

I think hes's asking about the old school metal sculpts sold as Fantasy Worlds. To be honest I have not seen any painted online.

I've always been tempted by the undead lot myself.

Hi

The Elves you are talking about are 28mm. They were designed in 1996, but they were done in a big style back then, not a 25mm style. They compare to our new plastic elves.

The old figures are really nice, Chas Elliott did them.

We only cast 100 of each figure, once they have sold through we won't be recasting them, not at least in the near future.

So they'll be bigger then the GW Lotr minis ?

No idea. Never had any GW elves.
