I had not seen this company or these minis before so I just wanted to expose them to the community.

Impressive minis

Thanks

Yeah they are really really nice models.. I'm very tempted to show them to our local store.

Are they really charging ten bucks a mini though? Or did I miss something?

I mean they'd be great Storm troopers, but not at $100 a squad... That makes DKoK look like a steal.

There are a mega-ton of games designed around the skirmish-level squad, and not everything is really suitable for 40K-sized armies. At $10 a piece, theyre right in line with, say, Infinity models, and work incredibly well for oodles of games. Myself, Ive been playtesting a friends game using these as proxies, and they work really well.

MERCS sent me a squad of their KemVar figures for review. Check out Episode AT-10 of TWIW. They are a bit pricy, but very nicely done. I agree that they are in line with Infinity figures. You're not going to build an army with them, but they are great for a squad or two.

Hey I know these figures aren't painted like the one's listed above appear to be, but I ran across them the other day and figure I'd best share...forget $9.99 ea (ok so they aren't painted), but these guys are like £2.50 a batch. Enjoy!
