The dwarf miners are very cool looking! I'm sure the great paint job is part of it, butt hey're very nice looking.

**Kroothawk**

For fans of Scibor's humorous holiday miniatures, here is the Santa Hunter/Slayer released today (12$, http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=996 ):

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

Love those miners.
A great paint job does enhance them but have a feeling the sculpts are pretty darn good

Not liking the Santa Slaya!
That was gonna be my teddy!

Holy crap no nmm Gold on it at all!

To be honest, it is not painted up to the usual Scibor standards though, looks very... average.

Being from the UK, I'm wondering what the shipping would be like from Scibor.

I am quite liking the look of that Santa mini

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

Isn't that one shipping from the North Pole?

Each armour is also available separately for 6$ each ( http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?group=72 ), 3 complete Celtic Warriors for 15$ each ( http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?group=70 ).

Love em. Gonna get some ASAP. However, a question...what parts (arms, heads, etc) fit these...power armor or termie?

**Kroothawk**

All Scibor shoulders are termie sized.
And the FAQ states 8$ shipping cost to Europe and USA flat.

BTW another 2 new releases (again can't post pics currently):

SF Shoulder Pads: http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=998

Egiptian Shoulder Pads:
http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=997

Edit: Added pics.

For those of you looking for a retailer in the USA, FRPGames.com carries scibor stuff. They are in California. Ive used them before and they are a good company. However, they dont offer a discount on scibor stuff, so the only advantage they offer is being in the USA. Also...they are running a bit behind as the newest releases (celtic armors set for example) are still listed as preorders.

**Kroothawk**

Scibor made a few new releases:

Egyptian resin bases in 25mm and 40mm:

http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1021 (5 for 6$)

http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1020 (2 for 9$)

http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1019 (2 for 9$)

Angel Shoulder Pads http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1018 (8 for 7$)

Scibor also released a load of "funny" Xmas miniatures that I will ignore here.

**Captain Jack**

Those Egyptian bases are perfect for the S Wolves force I'm trying desperately not to buy... damn Prospero Burns

**Mad4Minis**

I bought a set of the Celtic Armors a few weeks ago. They are some of the best resin work Ive ever seen. Extremely clean and crisp details...almost perfect casting with nearly no bubbles or flaws.

However...once assembled with Wolf Guard termie parts they just didnt look right. The proportions were...off. I guess its a result of trying to be just different enough from GW to not be sued. I decided to ebay them and do a different project.

**Kroothawk**

Two new releases:

SF Roman Centurion Body (resin, one piece, 9$):
http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1022

SF Roman Legionary Body (resin, one piece, 9$):
http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=1023

Heads also available separately (for some time IIRC) http://sciborminiatures.com/en_,shop.php?art=931

Notice the "true scale"

I know what people could use this for, but I won't tell in the current McCarthy witch hunt climate for small resin bit producers.

Sci-Fi Roman Legionaries.

What else could they possibly be?

yea that's it...

**Alpharius**

I know that's what I am going to use them for...

**johnstewartjohn**

Nice custodians. think they will sell them in a set like the space wolves?

**brettz123**

Look very nice..... I always like his detail.

**Alpharius**

I hope so, as I'll need a few more "Legionary" poses before I take the plunge!

That’s what i was thinking. P &p charges are a bit high for ordering just two. Real same that chapter house probably won't get to make those spears now.

Eldar sure got chunky all of the sudden.

Not all of a sudden

That's interesting. I bought one of his Christmas Baubles (the one with the Dwarf hanging out the front), and while the sculpt is great, the casting is decidedly less than impressive. A couple of massive lines on the sides of the bauble where the mould appears to not fit together properly, and air bubbles all over the place.

**johnstewartjohn**

Yeah but thats like most resin kits i've got. My reaver from forge world has taken a week to fill and sand.

**Alpharius**

The BEST resin casting I've ever seen has been from MaxMini - I've had LOTS of stuff from them need almost NO filing, sanding, removal of mold lines, etc.

Some seriously impressive stuff there.

But anyway, does anyone know if Scibor is planning some more poses in the "Legionary" body type?
