    This is splendid news!!!! I've always thought this was the natural way to go after companies started producing plastic figures in high quality for only a fracture of the cost of the same figures in metal or resin.I will definitely be getting my hands on these,once they come out.

    If these are images of the actual plastic and not just CAD images, then they are an incredibly well detailed set. Masterbox have produced some figure sets however in the past where the figure kit contents don't even match up to the box art images; so I look forward to seeing some images of the actual plastic contents rather than promotional images.

    I think also it will be a remarkable achievement if they could achieve that sense of movement and dynamic as shown here with injection plastic because normally, they tend (all manufacturers) to be somewhat 'stiffer' in pose than their resin or white metal counterparts.

    On a final note, it's also nice to see figures in plastic from this ancient era rather than the usual subjects of World War II and Napoleonic etc.

    They look fantastic.
    And I sincerely hope you and your compatriots remain safe and untroubled by foreign aggression.

    Looks fantastic! A little outside my American West addiction, ;) but I will certainly purchase these figures. :) Many years ago Ancients used to be my focus and this may be a good excuse to briefly return to those days.

    Cheers,

    Interesting set, but as Gary points out, I'd like to see the versions they will be marketing, rather than these CAD images. I have to say the few MB figures I have had are pretty good, so here's hoping...

    Just a couple of questions to the Moderators:

    So are politics allowed now in this Forum?

    I can't find where the Forum Rules are, but have read quite often that politics are not allowed here.

    Or is it only when the viewpoints expressed are opposed to the mainstream ones that such rules are in effect?

    Or does it depend on who/which member, expresses his/her political views?

    I'm confused and would love to get some kind of explanation/clarification.

    Because if after all political views are allowed, then I'd love to share mine concerning this subject.

    Cheers!

    Hi Nap,


    Sorry, but political motivated posts and/or references keep popping up on the Forum... And ALL for the same side... I keep wondering what would happen if I posted my own opinions about the current events... My posts and/or opinions would be deleted, that is a certainty!

    Please keep an eye open on every political post and/or reference posted on this site, it's unfair to have only one view and the other to be banned!


    Cheers!

    Hi Dolf

    It's clearly stated ref politics we all have our personal opinions but please all keep them off PF

    It's so sad to see all companies from both countries struggling

    I WILL SAY THIS .......ALL have the option to report concerns ....the moderators are not on here 24/7 and can't see everything

    I want to spend my time on here sharing modelling not carrying out moderating all the time...perhaps I should leave
