TMP link DAMN. If I could, I would trade all of these 5 packs for that one booster pack: 3 x PI.2 Infantry Squad + Assault Weapon (5 figures each)
1 x PI.4 Missile Teams Moving and Firing (4 figures each)
1 x PI.5 Heavy Laser Teams Moving and Firing 4 figures each) CC
PS. If only I had waited until they had resolved the leg issue: TMP link |

Heck man, I'll trade you a set of the new guys for those packs you've got there. Well, as long as you haven't cut them up for casualties yet. :) I was about to order a bunch of stuff from The Wizard's Workshop anyway, I can just order the extra guys for you, then send them your way. Scott |

I hope that a US Retailer gets them in soon. I like that extra heads come with the pack. I could make good use of them. |
| cloudcaptain | 16 Oct 2006 8:18 p.m. PST |
Rattlehead will probably get them quickly. |

I love 'em, its just a real pitty no one here in OZ carrys them, and the shipping/exchange rate bells out badly for them! the 10 man squad ends up at around $50aud, about the same for a box of GW cadians. Or two boxes of SST marines, (three if you buy em on sale at Millsims at the moment), etc. I know it's not Pig Iron's fault, but damm. They are GREAT figures though. |

they look much nicer than the older ones (legs again being the problem for me) – hope they re-work the rest of the range in this new style. Good price as well – under £2.00 GBP a figure. I know some of them are taking up a chunk of my next figure buying spree! |

wow you think under £2.00 GBP GBP a figure is a good price, yup that explans why Ive not gotten any new minis for the last 5 years. execpt the ones Ive made for my self. |
| Thieses | 17 Oct 2006 5:43 a.m. PST |
These are well sculpted minis. I really like the head options. They are a bit expensive.They are about $5 USD for one. However, when I think about the Harlequinn/Black Tree Daleks I bought for almosgt $6 USD each this puts things in perspective. I bought those minis almost 10 years ago! I've realized you have to buy the minis when they first come out. They rarely go down in price. ;) |
| nvdoyle | 17 Oct 2006 6:01 a.m. PST |
10 figs @ £14.00 GBP = £1.40 GBP per. Current exchange rates ( xe.com/ucc ) give that as $2.62 USD per. This, of course, doesn't include shipping. Er…unless you were talking about $AUD, not $USD… |
| alien BLOODY HELL surfer | 17 Oct 2006 7:33 a.m. PST |
Well, under £2.00 GBP for a nice figure isn't bad at today's prices – compare them to the metal IG from GW – and well, they look nicer (more sci-fi to me) and are cheaper. As Nvdoyle just posted – actually £1.40 GBP a figure. Beer is around £2-4 a pint, I get more fun out of my figures as a rule, so I justify it that way to the missus. Until she mentions that none get painted of course! ;-p |
| Thieses | 17 Oct 2006 2:10 p.m. PST |
…..OOOPs, yeah. I looked at vampire's prices and failed to notice the "aud" after the $. USD These minis are very reasonable at $2.62. In fact that makes them well worth buying. |

"wow you think under £2.00 GBP GBP GBP a figure is a good price, yup that explans why Ive not gotten any new minis for the last 5 years. execpt the ones Ive made for my self." Yep, that explains it. Last I ran the numbers, the PIG were about the cheapest reasonable quality metal troops available in the 28MM scale/range. |
| vampire | 18 Oct 2006 3:36 a.m. PST |
Don't get me wrong, i think they are great figures, and the price is fine, it's the shipping/cash conversion that hurts. If i could pick 'em up from a local store, i would. I'd buy lots. But SHIPPING them costs me. |

HUBCommish, The figures will be in the mail this afternoon. Thanks. CC |

I don't think th US stockists have the new heavy infantry figures yet – I'll be snapping up a set of them as soon as available. |
| smokingwreckage | 21 Oct 2006 8:57 p.m. PST |
Vampire; even with the cost of shipping they work out pretty attractive per figure. Buy from a US stockist, they usually don't gouge as hard for postage. |

The booster pack looks great!!! I feel funny saying this, but the guys' legs in that pack look fantastic. CC |
