I've got a number of the infantry and I like them quite a bit.They make a believeable near future army.he paint up well and the castings are clean. I would like to see more of a variety of rebel figures.They also go well with the REbel and Kurisan figures. A good buy all the way around.

Like these – not my scale, of course, but they really look good. They have a sort of ultra-modern/advanced British army feel to them :)

these are some of my favorite figures…check out the insurgents…they are great cyberpunk/merc miniatures.

Excellent, clean castings, but the pewter they use is significantly harder and more brittle than say, Rebel minis or Khurasan. I bought a boatload of these and it was interesting to have the occassional sprue or flash make a distinct snapping sound when bending/cutting it off.

I would like to clarify one thing to be fair.
These are not "PMC 2640 minis" – these are Oddzial Ósmy minis.

It is not the secret that I ("I" means Assault Publishing) cooperate with OO, which is producer of this fine figures and I have this great range in the offer and on stock. But the same figures are sold by the couple of other retailers worldwide.
Also it is not the secret that PMC 2640 ruleset is very well covered by this range, but IHMO they shouldn't be called as "official" or "PMC2640 minis".

To make the things more confusing I'm quite often mistaken with Marcin from Oddział Osmy :)

How are KRGames (UK retailer) to deal with……never heard of them before, but then I wouldn't have since I'd no interest Oddzia Osmy's 3mm range.

I may buy a company's worth to replace my NAC miniatures (who will become US troops), which I've never felt quite worked as Future Brits.

These minis are awesome. The castings are very clean, and the sculpting is precise. They make great near future infantry.

The metal is harder than the usual miniature metal, so if you try to bend a leg or arm, it will break easily. I have a sergeant with prosthetic legs; lessons learned. He's the guy in the middle of the grouping with the laser targeter:

I highly recommend these models.

Oh i love the colour schemes on those models Cyclopeus, very nice job! I may have to borrow that for some future armies.

I love these minis, I have a boatload of the NVL all painted up and 40ish of the insurgents waiting to get painted, Fantastic detail and a very wide range of poses and armaments for the NVL figures.

I am wondering how hard it would be to add little neckties to the Spaceworms….
