Does anyone have pictures comparing Empress miniatures to other WW2 miniatures. I was thinking of picking up their G.I.'s

Comparison to 20+ different other brands?… Their G.Is are for really late war (winter 44-45). It mostly depends on what you already have.

Any idea how they look compared to say Perry or Warlord Bolt Action?

They are closer to Perry than Bolt Action. Bolt Action US Infantry is a bit orcish/heroic in style, Empress And Perry are thinner and closer to human proportions. it's really a matter of preference.

Tom, Our sculptor, Paul Hicks, was the original owner of Bolt Action before selling to Warlord. Therefore Empress WW2 fit with the early Bolt Action range. Since them I hear that Warlord figures got bigger after he stopped sculpting for them. Not sure if that helps? Cheers, Paul

Paul, thanks very much. If that's the case I guess it's safe to assume that your WW2 range is slightly larger than Perry WW2. thanks Tom
