And here are some pics of my assembly attempt (dryfitted, no glue yet)

torso of the first Grendlr :


and here's the second one, with the displaced joint :


this one also has a rather large gap between mouth and torso (probably because I also had to dip the mouth i hot water to get it to fit)

Well, on the plus side, these photos enlarge even the smallest error. I admit seeing things on these pics I hadn' t even noticed before.

I sure don't care for the cheapo plastic-pvc nonsense a lot of these companies are going to.  It's a shame...

UPS couldn't get through because of the snow on Friday .... so my box arrived today.

Going to unpack it tomorrow/Thursday.

I have the house to myself and can throw things around unpack things in peace.

I still have yet to see mine 

It was supposed to be here today according to tracking...now there is no data...they sent it to Troutdale first, which is about 260 miles north of me...then shipped it to Kent Wa...another couple hundred miles north...from Fedex to the postal service? WTF? I'm not impressed or happy...

At least you have tracking info...

Yep, I feel your pain.  I'm in Iowa, no tracking info either.

I though the same as you at first, but a coat of primer brings out the detail and makes them look a lot crisper.

Detail looks quite decent enough for me, but granted I've still just seen pix on the 'net. Hopefully UPS will manage to deliver the parcel here to the office sometime today.

I agree with Momotaro; I cede that the detail *is* softer (it was obviously always going to be...), but they are still very well detailed and pretty crisp. Honestly, waaaay more detail than pretty much any other boardgame figs, and clearly they are miniatures rather than board game pieces.

I will snap some pix tonight and upload them so that comparisons with the metals can be made.

My big(ish) brown box has been delivered. UPS left it downstairs at the reception and only informed me of the arrival by e-mail but one supposes that's the standard procedure so I wont' complain too loudly -- about the delivery, that is. Will have to wait 'till evening to see what the parcel contains before starting to gripe about that, obvously

[obsidian3d]

Hm...I guess everyone has different opinions as to the quality. Fromt he photos I'd say that they're pretty nicely done. Of course the warped parts is an annoyance, but at least it can be remedied.

[tnjrp]

I just had time to quickly look over the most visible elements of the game last night (of course I really should check the contents ASAP to see if I've gotten everything I should've but the P bit will likely only occur on Saturday)...

Some of the markers are indeed printed a little off-center, none so much as to push the pattern outside of the punching cuts tho IIRC.

The boards are a little dark and "dirty-looking" in tone but not so much that I would've thought it unintentional. Also, there was one that had a mildly frayed tip but nothing so bad that I'd expect them to start actually peeling right away and I detected no warping of the boards in the little time they were out of the box.

The rulebook didn't smell much at all. But then again, my sense of smell is pretty reduced during the winter months anyway, perhaps it's a good thing in this case as some reported overpowering smell of new ink even after a week out of the box

But as none of those were really what I was after, well... What can I say? I got me a nice big box of minis
