New From our good friends at Reaper, fine makers of 100% original miniatures!
http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/previews
It's like some kind of... dark elf/spider centaur? Where do they get their ideas?
I've said it before and I'll say it again. The only thing better than fighting Nazis is fighting Nazi Zombies.
It's a bat-winged angel of goodness!
These are so coming home with me. To join the 100 other unpainted Reaper figures in my study.
I'd like some of whatever their sculpter is smoking.
Because no one demanded it... a bomb-throwing 19th Century Turkish anarchist. This really is why I love Reaper.
they call this an anime heroine? They need to do some research. Real anime heroines have much shorter skirts!
check out the gears on this warrior!
Here we see a hard-working Chinese DVD vendor and his lovely assistant.
At last a miniature to represent Sarah Palin, savior of America!
Psst... stay away from her Roy, I think she's got crabs

I really do like Reaper mini's. They're alot better than GW's metals by a long shot for detail and quality. Werner Klocke's stuff is fantastic.

Yeah, I have a whole collection of unpainted Reaper Minis that I just love. Their artists are very imaginative and some are just too cool not to have, even if you have absolutely no real world use for them.

The sarcasm was rather flat and uninteresting. Reaper makes decent minies and they fill the D&D RP campaign niche. Making a drider isn't a lack of originality, it's knowing who they sell to.

Nazi Zombies, a Kyborg Kriegaffe, a crazy fez bomber, plus some girls that I'm sure will look lovely painted. Reaper is in good form, it seems. It says a lot that the drider is the worst of this lot, and even it is a nice figure, just one that fails to "shaZAM" me with awesomeness like that ape of wrath.

Cheap poorly thought out sarcastic snips can go both ways dont forget.
While Kyoto's was a bit snippy, he somehow managed to keep it from being racist, a feat you could not manage. Even if you didn't mean it (which I find difficult to believe), it was still offensive. Your first post was offensive and poorly punctuated, and you haven't gotten off on the right foot. Keep it polite. - Iorek

Hey, PanamaG has a point. Attractive women have long struggled with the stereotype that they are actually... uh, attractive women. Now black people, on the other hand, really, really love any suggestion that they are actually cyborg roid freak gorillas. Shame on you, KK, for pointing out something that Palin and her people have struggled with for years while exposing your own deep seated feelings of hatred for the aesthetically pleasing.

And yours unfortunately slides into racism. Comparing African-Americans to any type of monkey/ape has a long nasty history in this country. I'm going to assume this was not your intent. You just acted without thinking in defending Gov. Palin.

This mini is remarkably like the Gorillinators from the Heroscape games and would make a great boss for them there - most of these models would fit nicely into Heroscape. All these look awesome, the drider being the exception - their last "spider centaur" wasn't much better than this one, but it's a hard figure to get right. Reaper makes wonderful models as a whole and I them up whenever I can.

Those are cool. Reaper has always made cool stuff. I use them for D&D myself. I really like that Gorilla with the "assault cannon" on his arm. Could almost proxy for an Ogryn.

Hmmm those greens signal more Reaper purchases on my part. I have already ordered the Anime chick off the Warstore, (sight unseen since they didn't have pics) but the winged daemon chick would make a great Slaaneshi hero, and the zombie Nazi's Nurgled traitor guard. Not that, you know, I HAVE either of those armies... I don't have an army of crab women either, but that is getting snapped up too next time I place an order. Though her hands are in a really awkward position... hrm.
