They are indeed bad and a real missed opportunity. Half the fun of the PSR review is reading between the lines "….so for example many hands simply melt into nothing or are entirely flat, and certainly the overall impression is that these figures are ugly and ill-proportioned, with the usual lack of necks….." "…..as it is this is a pretty unattractive set with some more practical problems that leaves little to recommend it…." or the most damning condemnation of all: "…these are no worse than most other Mars figures….." |

Yes – they are accurately cruel about the horses as well : In the past Mars have delivered some truly shocking horses that little resemble the animal in either proportions or gait, and compared to those the horses in this set are something of an improvement. Yes – these are the better quality horse sculpts…oh goodness.. |

At 26mm, they didn't even get the scale right! I've never liked the figures by Mars. |
