Interesting.
Like the look of them.
Seems to direct 6mm pledges to $30 as the higher pledge reward is 3 x 28mm figures.

I saw these crop up on facebook.

Though they have an interesting design about them, They look too big to really be of use to anything I do (though its hard to tell, I'm just going by what I know a cork too be roughly in size- they could be teeny tiny corks for all I know!)

But they as interesting as they could turn out to be they are far, far too expensive for my taste. €14 ($15) for either 32 infantry? Or €14 for 6 only-slightly-bigger-than-infantry elites/robots? No thanks. That seems a little ridiculous. Add on top of that P&P. I'll stick with perfect six at £0.12p a figure thanks! (even onslaught who are on the more expensive side are only like £0.25p/$0.30 each)

Not keen on offering 28mm sculpts as a reward for a 6mm funder as well, especially as you only get three and sounds like he wont be making any more. Might be more worthwhile if they were more display pieces.

He has stated that he tried to keep the miniatures compatible with other 6mm manufacturers lines. I have asked him if he could post a size comparison so we'll see.
As to the price, I don't think these are going to be the retail prices.
This is a crowdfunder to help get these miniatures into production, not a nickstarter where a big existing company organises a big pre sale of their already completely developed new product.
Personnaly I don't mind giving a bit more to the first and refuse to have anything to do with the latter.

Remember ... when it comes to Aliens ... they can be a little bigger or smaller than the average human ... ^-^

Hey guys,

Just wanted to let you know that the kickstarter has funded.
Also the miniature count for each pledge level has been upped somewhat.
They have also posted a size comparison picture

So, they are a little big, but it has been stated that these are bio enhanced super soldiers and they are in fact larger than normal humans. (now where have we heard that one before ;D )
