They are a little rough looking, but something about their aesthetic appeals to me.
I am reminded of Heinlein's Starship Troopers with the way the battle armor looks and functions (especially if you read the fluff associated with each model in the shop section of the website).
All in all an intriguing new range that will be updated every few months.
Coming soon-skinnies! Loving the guy in the middle with the wicked claws.

I think the first thing I thought was "oh dear". I think I can honestly say there are only a couple of aspects on a couple of the figures that I like.
Just aesthetically not my cup of tea.

I prefer the long nosed thing that is on the website to those red armoured critters.

I kinda like these, especially the guy on the far right of the 2nd picture, with the googly eyes. Looks kinda like a mole, in a good way.

Ditto for me. They aren't bad, just not my style.

I like them.
They have a distinct and refreshing look. Glad to see an indie mini company doing something other then riding on the coat tails of GW's IP or mindlessly churning out big boobed anime girlies...

Those are the Quar.
These new models look ideal for Pulp Weird Science games.

Very plain, uninspired. The models just lack any original feel, and there's a shortage of small details on them.

+1. If they make enough different ones, I will get them eventually, just out of respect for their originality. 40K is supposed to be a big universe. I'd like to see more alien armies on the tables.

Um, she's not an anime girl. You see, there are these things called "real girls". I can see how you might get confused though- she is on a screen.
I don't like these models. But I do like the guys inside the armor. It's the lack of detailing on the armor that gets me. The faces show clearly the sculptor is capable of excellent details, so I want to see more of them. They are cute though. More turtle people!
