I'm all over these like a raging disease!!! They also have some other 15MM minis that would be perfect as space marines. If they would now make space elves, life would be truly grand.

Let's see, they are reproducing or re-selling Epic Orks..... if you really want some I have a whole bunch I can sell ya.

And so, due to rising costs of maintaining the Golden Throne, the Emperor's finest accountants spoke to the Demigurg. A deal was forged in blood and extensive paperwork for a sub-prime mortgage with a 5/1 ARM on the Imperial Palace. And lo, in the following years the housing market did tumble and the rate skyrocketed leaving the Emperor's coffers bare. A dark time has begun for the Imperium, the tithes can not keep up with the balloon payments and the Imperial Palace and its contents, including the Golden Throne, have fallen into foreclosure. With an impending auction on the horizon mankind holds its breath as it waits to see who will gain possession of the corpse-god and thus, the fate of humanity...... |

It looks like they just "biggerized" them.

Those are new models, the old epic were in one pose and yeah a bit smaller. They look good from what I can tell. Lotta character.

15mm 40k. Sounds intriguing. It would make the ranges more sensible and sure as heck take the sting out of buying and painting!
EDIT: There is a rumour that these were taken off the market a while back while the company managed its "issues" with GW. That they have now come back on the market would indicate that those "issues" have been resolved. That is an interesting development.

Yeah, these have about as much detail in 15mm as GW can manage in 6mm. Rather sad.

The old meta is dead and the new meta struggles to be born. Now is the time of munchkins. |

Looks like the original manufacturer passed these on to these guys. passing the buck if C&Ds were previously issued.
I like em lots but there have got to be more inventive ways of modeling an orc from space biker rather than blatantly making 15mm scale 'warbikes'.
Still...are there any decent 15mm sci fi games with room for 'orcs from space'
Just checked on the space troopers - those things are fugly.

They're also not plastic, which Epic Orks are. Metal castings simply can't compete with plastic and resin in the smaller scales.

The supply does not get to make the demands. |
