I'm not convinced. They look like they're just metal boxes.
The models are just too 'blocky' IMHO.

I like the first set of alternate heads.
However, the armour looks like it has been made out of Tetris pieces 
Not saying that it looks bad (I quite like it) but it is very angular.

About the body complaints, seems quite common to dislike the PI models themselves. The heads are the main draw to PI from what I can tell

My thoughts on these guys...Brilliant.
1. Naval Boarding Party? Lots of Shotguns!
2. Adeptus Arbite Army? Lots of Shotguns!
3. Inquisitorial Stormtroopers?
4. Drop Troopers?
They are good models with hundreds of options.

I cannot imagine they won't fit on IG models....and if they fit there, they also fit on Scout bodies.
Their other previously released heads fit very well on Cadians, so......

They are metal, so there isn't a huge variation in poses, and they would be a lot of effort to convert. They do offer standard infantry, command, and various support weapons, so you can make up realistic platoons, but it might get a bit "samey" to do a large army.
As for styling, you either like it or you don't. At least it is an alternative to GW or Infinity or other SF ranges. The three ranges (Heavy, Kolony and System) share an aesthetic which makes them look part of the same universe. Some thought has gone into it.
I like the Kolony Militia best.

I used the mark I (original System trooper) heads for my Vets with Shotguns and carapace armor. I was going to use the Mark II heads (first ones pictured here) for my Stormies. But seeing those second and third ones up there, they look more like ODST to me and I got to get some of those.
