Nice mini – stupid axe. I would cut if off and add a more realistic one. |

My take, Not that good by today's standards I'm afraid, just looks sad old school to me, not that exciting DnD style from Late 70s |

Well, they look pretty stiff. No animation in those poses. If you are looking for old school, these might do. But there is so much competition out there that I think they need to step up their game if they want to compete in the 21st century. |

I have to say that I'm a big fan of Tony's style and have been for many years. Those that know me realise my addiction to old lead is beyond help :) I'm always looking for any of his sculpts if anyone has any to trade etc. 80s Heroes Miniatures contains one of my favorite lines of old school Gothic Horror types. |

Meh. These are gross caricatures of the human form and as others have said are stiff and uninteresting poses. No thanks. |

I like them…a lot! It is a nice change from the usual bare-midriff impossibly non-functional armored figures out there. I love caricatures as it is a nice reminder that our hobby is not a serious one. I'd happily use these in a fantasy setting. |

Compared to the old foundry sculptors, these have a very long way to go |

For those of you who are addicted to the 3D-sculpted wonder-figures of the modern age, these may seem a little basic.
However, what they have in spades is character. I have both these figures and close up they are excellent. I am looking forwards to painting them.
Remember not every figure has to be pirouetting in combat, weapons and arms flailing. If you are playing skirmish or role-playing games, characters just standing still can come in very handy. |

I can see these as handy RPG figures (Runequest, anyone?). As for very big axe blades:
In a fantasy setting where enchanted weapons are potentially ubiquitous, an oversized weapon is not exactly all that OTT… >;)
