How do these scale up to Foundry's, EM4's, and ERM's sci-fi/modern ranges. I have been buying up sci figures like a madman and I am going to pick up some drones from RAFM anyway. I would like to know if its worth picking up some character figures while I'm at it.

Thanks,
-Joe

The drones and sentry bots will match fine since they're robots, but the humans will be rather big. They easily dwarf my Foundry, Copplestone, and other modern stuff. I would say they're between 30-32mm.

Lucky for you:

The RAFM are a bit tall, however I find they mix well on the table with ERM, Foundry, and others for modern RPG or skirmish games.

PS: I know it looks like the bases are not lined up in those pics, but I assure you they are. It's only the angle the camera was at, to get a good close micro shot that makes them look disarrayed.

Thanks for the pics. I'll be putting some in my next order.

Jana … you are holding out on us. One of those piccys was modern1 and the other modern3.

Where is modern2? : )

Loved the pics btw. Thanks.

They fit in great with Star Wars collectable figs from WOTC, but they make them look really poorly sculpted and painted, but wait they are…

LOL, too true but maybe the price is right?

The modern2 image may yet make an appearance. There's a number of manufacturers I did not get in those photos last month, because they are already mixed in with the general/fantasy scale images I did a few years back. I really need to redo the whole set…. but not tonight.

Bishop Odo03 Jun 2008 9:35 p.m. PST

I think, I missed a company, but what is modern2 is that a new line?

SeattleGamer Supporting Member of TMP03 Jun 2008 10:41 p.m. PST

No Bishop … I simply notice trivial things, and in this case, the actual images Jana pointed us to were labeled modern1 and modern3.

Well, I take digital photos of my stuff from time to time, and I too tend to number them. So I was teasing Jana about the missing "modern2" photo. Nobody would number their photos and skip a number, right?

I'm going for some sort of government cover-up here. Perhaps there was something in "modern2" we mere mortals were not supposed to see. So "they" (Men in Black) had to confiscate the photo, and Jana had to sign a non-disclosure form. Either that, or they used one of those flashy mind-erase devices. : )
