Does anyone own the Dead Earth Imperial Citizens from Bronze Age Miniatures & the Renegade Martians from the London War Room? If so, do these work reasonably well together or is one group markedly bigger than the other? |

I have the LWR and they are true 28mm |

The Parroom Station miniatures (LWR) tend to slighter proportions whereas the Bronze Age figures are generally taller and more "heroically" proportioned. We use them together just fine in our Fantastic Worlds or VSF games. |

I have both around here and the Bronze Age models are HUGE compared to the Parroom ones. They do not mix at all in my opinion. |

I use them together but I base my LWR minis on two metal washers and leave the BA stuff on their own bases. It works well enough for me. |

The Bronze Age miniatures are quite tall, and the situation is complicated by their mounting on very thick bases. I also mount my RAFM Space 1889 figures on washers, which compensates a bit for the thickness of the bases. Like larskyler I don't mount the BA figs on washers. The Parroom Station miniatures are simply much slighter than either RAFM or BA. You just have to accept them for what they are. |

Don't get me wrong-- I think both lines are fabulous! I just wouldn't play them in the same game together. |

Would Bronze Age Miniatures' Dead Earth Humans be much taller than Eureka and Pulp Figures too? It would be nice to have the Rocket Troopers I already own not be dwarfed by not-John Carter |

Go ahead & mix. The more you mix the better the mix gets. & remember that not everyone is the same size & perportion. Just look around a room any time there are more than a few people gathered. I just barely am shoulder height to my younger brother and he is ove 100 lbs heavier than I am. I have built wargame units with figures from hefty 20s to slight 30s all in the same group and they look realistic together. |
