Unfortunately the only review I feel like giving would be........
2 Marines £2.50!
1 Sargent £3.50!!!
I'm sorry but the days of figure makers charging these kind of prices
are over. You only
had to walk around Salute and see the range of Sci - Fi figures on offer
and very
reasonable prices asked.
I cannot abide the price structure based around how many of each figure
you need for your army.
And not how much lead your getting.
ok little rant over, but this is what you get from a high turnout by our
"favorite" games company at
Salute this year. I can only hope that some of the youthful players at
those game tables took time
to look around at the alternatives on offer.
