This is just a render, and the real sculpt may look a little different
Play nicely together, please

It might change a little, but I doubt they'll redo it much once there's a render.
Ivy aside I really like the models so far, so the only thing that would make me jump ship at this point (apart from financial woes) would be if some of the models are way off scale, as happened with the TMNT kickstarter game a few years back.

Well, hopefully they do stick to one scale even if it's 35mm (IIRC). Would've preferred something a little closer to 28mm myself of course.

I think I read that its 32mm, which is great news since Knight Miniatures are 32mm :)

I'm fine with Bane and Croc being huge, they're suppose to be, but some other games have had roughly humansized characters represented by models with several centimeters height difference. That would kill my interest.

So they are, but luckily I was wrong about the Knight Miniatures too, they're 35mm too.

35mm is the new 32mm (which is the new 30mm) (which was the new 28mm)

Don't even get me started about the original 25mm...

Not much there to complain about, seeing as it was already known to be in Feb. Title's good enough, better than the beige "the boardgame" certainly.

I have not been a big fan of many of the sculpts so far either.

For those not lethally allergic to Facebook, heeeeere's Harley!
https://www.facebook.com/monolithedition/photos/pcb.1305242352914078/1305229059582074/

Personally would've preferred a bit less "classic" version for the overall look plus the gun is obviously just insane (of course so is she, and her mallet in most pix but still -- is that revolver supposed to be made of plastic and pop out a flag saying "BANG" when you pull the trigger or what ???) but that's easy to remedy luckily.

She's not alone in oversized weapon category unfortunately, here's the Red Hood and his not-so-minigun:

Again, easy to remedy but still a bit of chore if one needs to do that for every gun in the game...

BTW for those incensed about RH not having two pistols or whatever, there's apparently going to be a different version with a bit less firepower too. Not sure how many versions of Harley there's gonna be but one might assume more than one.

Oh dear. the last few previews have been... lacklustre. I'm being charitable. Which is good for me, cos it means I'll be able to save my money from yet another pricey Kickstarter!
