I have waited for them for quite some time ! and I am not disapointed. 5 days after ordering on eureka miniatures USA I received my parcel filled with 72 small russian soldiers. there are 3 different kinds, sphera, regular helmet and sphera+maska. Very little flash, most guns are a bit bent but not a single one broke when I had to straigthen them, even the long PKM and SVD. I lost one flash hider on a AK though.
Eureka / flytrap / eureka / khurasan / eureka / CP models
they are a bit small compared to other companies … sad cause I love the maska ones !

15's. Nice looking range, a wee bit small but not enough to prevent me picking some up. |

When you say a bit small, how much? Would they fit well with Pendraken or GFI? or are they still too big for that? HostileContact |

Another way of looking at it are that Flytrap, Khurasan and CP models are too big to fit comfortably with Peter Pig, Renegade, Old Glory and Eureka. I personnally do not mind a bit of a difference and happily use all the manufacturers' offerings, however I have found that Flytrap figures work better if you file down their rather thick bases, while Khurasan figures vary considerably between different ranges and some match up better than others. |

The figs themselves are fantastic. The detail is really good, weapons are of realistic proportions…but they are small. I have about 60 based on pennies and painted in drab greens and browns to represent low tech near future rebel/militia troops if anyone is interested in them. |

Eureka are "true" 15mm, the other are more 18mm I would say figures are really nice and won't look bad on a board with the other brands. I am painting one quickly to have a comparison shot. |

Nicely done! Good looking troops and bases! I got my first 4 man fireteam painted up this weekend. |
