They are very nice, but they sort of remind me of the Infinity Knightly Orders.

Sooo... Anyone actually got any yet? I mean the Enforcers, of course. Some comments on their quality would be nice. Some pix would be very nice. Some comparison pix would be super nice.

I've got mine and they're very nicely detailed and cast and fit of weapons/hand to arm is very positive and quite unique but....almost every leg casting I received has damage to the waist area (belt has lengths missing or is deformed). I have contacted Mantic (less a complaint more a 'heads-up) but although I've received numerous emails with news of their latest KS I haven't had a response regarding the faulty items. Very busy or poor customer service? I'm happy to give them the benefit of the doubt and I can easily replace the belts or hide the damage with extra ammo packs etc. Personally I really like the minis  and when I get a little free time I'll take some pics.

How do you find the proportions "in-hand" dwartist?

Is their odd-looking limb proportion just a foreshortening effect of the camera pix, or are they actually like that?

Yes, given what the earlier Corporation troopers looked like it would be nice to hear about the proportions. They do seem better than before but since all pix I recall seeing of the Enforcers are taken from a slightly upward angle it's a little difficult to say for sure.

Proportions seem ok - I think it's the style of the joint that makes them look odd.

My Enforcers finally arrived here in the US. My castings are OK, the detail is good. I'll post pix asap.
