 They look even better painted up.

Well I'm waiting for the space knight and space dork stuff to come back. I really want to get those done and then I'll finish off the other army that goes with the GDF.

When I get them in my hands I am planning on a deep re-think about where to go with my 15mm SF.   8)

So many good choices recently along with the already existing GZG, Khurasan, Rebel Minis, etc., lines.

Don't worry about those other companies. Give my some time and I'll be able to take care of all your 15mm needs.  :) Apart from vehicles. I really need autocad 3d or zbrush.

The images on the online store are very tiny and I couldn't appreciate the details. This looks far better. Now I have a wider range from which to start in 15mm sci fi.

If you take your cursor over the image on the webstore, you should get a zoomed-in view. Seems to work for me on Firefox at least.

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

Thanks for letting me know. Like Fiona said above you can click the images in the boxes and zoom in. However i've added larger photos on what is the text area of the product page so you can now see them propery without much fuss.  :)

Actually, I almost did not get these because I have around 300 of the Galactic Grenadier 15mm figures (plus platoons of the other companies figures) already but the appeal was sufficient to attract me to "dabble" in another faction.

How do you like those, Glenn? I remember showing someone a LONG time ago the couple of boxes I had, and noses went up.

I thought they were interesting, and the aliens had proper 'not quite right for humans' look.

Bergil, definitely looking at your items with renewed interest, but don't say silly things like 'forget GZG, Brigade et al.' Especially when I can tempt RebelMike with swaps for old RPG stuff.  lol

I'm just kidding ;) I own a fair amount of 15mm stuff from various sources.

When you have as many as I do you either like them a lot or sell/trade/bin them.  lol lol

I use the various "factions" against each other easily.  I have to have (at least in my head) a background story (space gnomes?) when they face larger, more modern figures.
