Are the current BFG minis plastic, from the original plastic boxed set, like http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?prodId=prod1100086?

Or are they metal copies?

On the link it does say "Each kit can be made into one of the seven classes of the Chaos Cruiser"

I don't have any personal experience with BFG, but I am fairly certain that all of the models, or a large majority are metal

Your eyes are weary from staring at the screen. You feel sleepy. Notice how restful it is to watch the cursor blink. Close your eyes. The opinions stated above are yours. You cannot imagine why you ever felt otherwise.

Imperials are about 3.5 inches (9cm)
Chaos ones are about the same sice, a little more chunky mind.

Some of BFG stuff is a bit pricey though, might be worth hunting eBay. I mean look at this...
