Ace, I take it the arms are separate as I would really hate to find one in three were pistol armed!

No separate weapons, but
Set contains 10 troopers (one sergeant with pistol and 9 privates with rifles).

The fact that roughly half of them are kneeling is a bit of an drawback.

I'd also beware of duplicates (if that bothers you), the photos of their Barghests (hell hounds) suggested 5 different minis through clever photography but there were actually 3 bodies with 5 different heads

Nice troopers. The variety isn't a problem for me as I'd only get one squad anyway... but you'd get a certain amount of variety by varying body/head positions...

Good stuff anyway :)

around £2.40 a mini - they have a flat rate shipping policy too - so a couple of sets and your into a "front rank, 2nd rank" set up nice and quickly............ GW Imperial Guard plastics sitting at £1.80 per mini and GW SPace Marine troops at £2.50 per mini these are well within the ball park and look tasty to boot!

ditto - would be tempted to buy some, other than I'd want a whole platoon (hence not enough poses).
