Oh my, those not-Sauri are marvelous. I like the smaller lizzies as well, but I prefer Skinks. Tiny, cute, non-threatening Skinks in lightweight plastic. With skull hats. These are a bit too threatening for my cutesy lil scorers. And plastic is so handy for BB and knocked down models.
Getting the whole team is not cheaper than just the Sauri and Godzilla, though. I guess I'll have to pledge unless GW shows massive BB lizzardmen before the KS ends.

They definitely have the right artistic vibe going for them.
With all the recent 3rd party interest in lizards and such you'd think GW would get around to updating the scalies themselves properly!

I said "not cheaper" when I meant "not more expensive". Posting at night, ehh
I need to write the end date into my calendar.

I love the way that they've mixed in different body types for the women.
Hell, all of these ranges are fantastic!

We'll find out soon enough eh.

I love the Savage Women, those same models but reposed to be fighting with weapons would be the best Amazons for Lustria I've ever seen.

I need to acquire plastic Skavenslaves, can you help?
I have a blog now, evidently. Featuring the Alternative Mordheim Model Megalist.

These sculpts are really good. I hope the sculptor puts out some work in resin or plastic someday.

SO many good lizard dudes, and frogs and chicks look great too. Greebo's sculpts have gotten so good over the years. I've actually bought the same minis from Greebo in resin and in metal, and did so because the resin was terrible. Not just flashy and mold-slipped (it was), but also brittle and very hard to clean, with some snapped ankles on top of that. Such a pain that I rebought in metal  These were the first edition of the little lizard footballers here, so I would hope their production has kept up with their jump up in sculpting*. Which is clearly not necessarily the case. Anyway, the metal casts were fine, but I can see why they may not want to give resin another shot right yet. * Admittedly this is CAD and previous was hand-sculpt, so the comparison isn't totally fair. But certainly an uptick in design since early days.

The metals aren't bad, especially when they're single pieces.
I've had to work on my Demogorgon quite extensively and I'm still waiting for a few missing pieces from Greebo.
Biggest peeve of mine with their models is all the parts of every single model you ordered tend to be tossed into the box without any sort of sorting. I ordered a bunch of individual models and it took me a while to parse out what part belong to which model.

Interesting, i had the resin version of the Bret team they did on KS and they are very nice sculpts and casts, i cant fault them, i did hear they had problems producing the resins hence why they stopped.
As for their metals i cant really fault them maybe the old mold line thicker than others but they seem to keep the detail of the masters quite well, im in for the Lizzies
