Does anyone have any pics of these? How do they scale with GHQ?

I purchased these about 3 years ago from H&R and I believe they are from the "new" range:

As to the size, I believe the GHQ would be a bit bigger. If I can find a pack of the GHQ laying around I will try to compare.

Thanks, PAR, those look great. The GHQ infantry are definitely oversized, I was curious how the new H&R scaled with the GHQ vehicles if you have any. What are the dice holders for? Casualties for a game?

Thanks for the kind words. The figures were a little glossy in that photo, I think (I hope) I sprayed them with matte varnish after I took the pictures. Let me get a photo of GHQ vehicles next to some H&R infantry and H&R vehicles and some Mainforce infantry (prone).

The dice holders were to denote casualties for the ruleset Hind & Seek. I haven't played the game yet but I collected some Soviet and Afghan forces for it. One day.

Here you go Epic:

(L-R): Heroics and Ros infantry, an H&R T-55, a GHQ T-80 and Mainforce infantry.

Awesome, thanks. I don't see anything wrong with those, scale-wise, when comparing them to GHQ. I'll definitely pick some up.

We use H&R with GHQ a fair bit and the look fine. I guess the bases on the figures make them tall enough to compensate for the scale difference.
