thank You Armand; these are I guess resin or plastic figures to be assembled ? I see some joint seams on the horse bodies that seem to imply these are kits. I like these fIgures from Fireforge anyway I really do not understand their choice to cast these in resin starting with the Mongols heavy cavalry and price them awfully high: 4 Eu for each cavalryman /horse is more expensive than the average cost of a horse /cavalryman of most of the metal ranges available in 28mm….They started well with their plastic Crusaders range (even if those as well are more expensive than other makers') but now their figures are in my opinion not much affordable. Is there anyone who can confirm these are resin and how they really look like; from the pictures they seem to be nice and well animated figures anyway the price is keeping me away from buying some ..so I'd really like to read some opinions before deciding. Thank you all.

It seems the horses are plastic, the riders are resin.

See the details, archers for example:

They are nice minis.
