Hey all -
As I've been slowly building a 1000-sons/Tzeentch-oriented force, I can confirm that the WM Greater deamons are very big - too big for Epic (for my tastes, anyways!)
However, because of a happy mixup, my order of Tzeentch WM daemons included two blisters of Daemonic Chars of Tzeentch and I found that one of them looks perfect (IMO) to be used as a Gr.Daemon. The other is a bit big for a character in Epic but I might use him as a Tzeentch Daemon Prince.
Some other WM links: WM Daemonic Legion WM Horrors of Tzeentch WM Screamers of Tzeentch WM Greater Daemon of Tzeentch
If folks like, I could post some comparison picts, showing WM some of my Tzeentch WM minis next to other Epic-scale figures...

Hmmm ... so size does matter ! I was unaware the WM figs were that large !

I actually took some pics of mine when I was trying to sell Warmaster daemons for use in epic, I never succeeded, but I still like them. If you can accept that there is a big variety in daemon sizes (as Maksim points out ), then the Warmaster figs are fine. I do own the Khornate Daemon Prince, and he doeasnt seem too huge (around the size of Angornish), but he aint painted yet.
Anyway, the closest comparison I can offer, of the smaller figs to give an idea:
Daemon Piccies
Hopefully thats of some use...
On the greater daemons, I have long liked the idea of bieng able to summon BIGGER greater daemons (remember the picture in one of the older books of a bloodthirster taking on a Reaver titan and being the same size, think THAT), and actually have some house rules on spending more points to make them bigger. Also have a scenario in mind where about 5000pts of cultists try to summon a 40k scale Greater Daemon...what can I say, big works for me

Some other WM links: WM Screamers of Tzeentch | I did a conversion for Disc Riders using the WM Screamers. I mounted 2 per base and put chaos squad minis on their backs. I use the Raptor stats for them.
