Take a close look at these Khurasan spearmen. Are they miscast?

JMcCarroll20 May 2017 6:22 a.m. PST

A hint?

ChrisBrantley20 May 2017 6:39 a.m. PST

Miscast to me means incomplete, Ill-formed figures missing pieces as a result of casting (I.e. an incomplete cast). These look complete and usable but a lot flashier than I normally expect to see, requiring lots of preparation. Perhaps a sign of an old or poorly cast mould.

Damn. I guess I'll try to return them.

That's typical of his historical stuff. Its a harder metal as well and a pain to clean up.

They are not miscast. Why do you think you could return them? And just for the record, I'm no fan of Khurasan!

Interesting, I have ordered a decent amount of figures from several of the Khurasan ranges and haven't had issue with cast quality.

So instead of an easy snip you'd rather return them??

They look fine to me. Just use your modeling skills on them.

I don't think they are returnable. Other than cleaning up the plug on the base and some flash they look complete.

A needle file and a modelling knife. No problem.

Agree, could be cleaner.
