It's the only way he could get round the restraining order...

I like them. A couple boxes may find their way into my pile of unpainted plastic...

I like it so far! But haven't the martians been smaller? Or at least not that slim?
28mm will be a problem. If they were 15mm, I guess they'd have been an instant buy. But isn't Mars Attacks all about big saucers, tanks, and a ton of aliens?!

In this scale it's definitely not affordable for me. Or at least I can't find an excuse to buy a shitload of them. I'd have loved a table full of war machines and half a raided/ruined city swarmed by a bucket full of martians :cry:

I'd about put money on somebody showing the Topps people 15mm models killing that. It's a superniche part of the hobby market here in the US. A 28mm line will probably do a lot better. I'm eager to see what the war machines and the earth army guys look like.

Let's see if this will link... probably not. Oh... Image is too big. It's a pic of that mini next to others. 28mm.

I'll buy a few, for a "Kill All Humans!" kind of game.
