I'd love that.
But since they released it as limited edition, they are catering to the painter/collectors.
Seriously though, if the guy did a range of these girls at 28mm, or even multipart with heads and poses and arms, he could charge what he liked for em and they'd still sell like hot cakes.

I wonder if they would actually? I mean, in principle it sounds like a good idea, but when you look into it a bit deeper, the requirement for an army of female IG like fighters is pretty limited....in fact, the only game that could support that kind of miniature range, would be WH40K......and to be honest, and I know its a different story, but with GW attitude towards "outside" support, any company or individual doing anything to support GW products needs to have a serious one to one with a head doctor!

I ordered one for my IG army.
If "Kara Black" is to big (which I suspect) I will just cut her down a little by shorting the legs 2-3 mm (above and below the kneepads + at the wrists).
Will probably also give the gun a 40k-ish barrel.
PS. I *love* the camo scheme on her pants.

I had to check the scale of the models I have to see how the Lt. would fit in with my Cadians. I have the first 3 releases and I think the scale puts the McVey line close to Forgeworld as far as realistic proportions and slightly taller than GW models. Seraphine is about 2mm taller then the new IG Astropath. Kara should fit in nicely with GW units.
If you like the camo, make sure you check out the blog that has a great how-to about it.
