I'm looking to pick up figures for SAGA as my local group appears to be ready to start play soon. While I like the Gripping Beast line, there are other lines; Fireforge Games, Saxon Miniatures, Wargame(s?) Foundry, that may have some particular units that I like the looks of better. Do most of these "match up" for size? I was reading somewhere at least one manufacturer has some really nice figures, but they were significantly smaller than most other lines. I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I didn't see anything in a quick search. Thanks for your help… |

If you like the Saxon Miniatures look for the Gripping Beast sculpts done by Colin Patten. They match perfectly. The stuff from Footsore blends very nicely as well. |

I use Wargames Factory plastics, they look skinny and tall compared to GB! |

Regardless of subject or scale, I find it is style that matters more than "size." 15mm Minifigs, to my eye, don't mix at all with anything else, because of the style of their poses. I still own a bunch but the height is not what makes figures "fit." YMMV |
