I didn't order an Adam and Anna, but am getting the game and piles of expansions, and yet I got mine in my Wave 1 box. There's definitely a lot of mispacking going on, but mercifully it seems like most people's mispacks are in consumer favor... which is weirdly refreshing. :-p

I've assembled 7 of the models I received. The parts go together beautifully. GW can certainly stand to learn a few things from WGF about how to cut a model for mold tooling and assembly. The Watcher was a slightly difficult one, as it was harder to figure out where each little "streamer thingie" attached (couldn't find any instructions online, had to use a couple pics of the finished model as a go-by).
Also, with these models and some of the really fine connection points, plastic glue is a godsend. I'm using the Testor's Model Master bottle that has the metal needle-like head for precise application. Superglue would be difficult for some of this stuff. The Phoenix Dancer, for example, connects to the base at the front halves of her feet, which isn't much more than a square millimeter each.
But, still, these models are completely amazing so far.

Funny, coming from putting together some of the End Times figures and the new Goretide models from the AoS stater, after putting together my Watcher, felt the exact opposite. Was thinking GW would have made the Watchers cloak in more layered pieces. Was the first figure of the several I got in my batch. Having put the Pinup of Death set together earlier, those didn't strike me as being anywhere as near as GW is.

It all depends on what your priority is in a model. If you care about ornate designs with ease of assembly, GW's approach is generally better. GW tends to have the clever compromise of detail versus parts variety where you don't notice the loss of the latter as much until you start putting down dozens of models from the same kit next to each other. Their approach generally keeps the part count low and for some people that is more important. The freebie Sigmarine is only 4 parts (not counting the base) and is a reasonably detailed model. For someone not concerned with modelling, this is a much better option as it's not tons of effort just to get to the painting stage; you can knock out whole units very fast.
Where WGF is ahead at the moment is with those detailed multi-part kits with the caveat of "when someone else designs them." WGF's own designs seem to be a bit lackluster though as sort of "cheap bulk unit fodder" that may be intentional; similar to GW emphasizing ease of assembly, WGF may have chosen to prioritize price over appearance. However, take a DFG kit such as the Leviathan and compare to the Knight, or the Keilerkopf APC compared to any of GW's transports or the DFG stormtroopers compared to GW's troop kits. Aesthetics aside, almost every one of those comparisons from an engineering standpoint is in DFG's favor IMO (and WGF by extension). You could likely, through the use of the Accessory and/or Panzerjager kit, make an entire Imperial Guard infantry force with completely unique models without doing anything more involved than part swaps. Doing that with GW troops is a bit more of a challenge. Posing a Knight is an adventure in sawing, posing a Leviathan is...well it's just about designed to be posed however you want it to be.
GW may not offer that level of customization, but that comes with a commensurate increase in assembly time; someone can probably build a Knight in nearly no time at all, but that Leviathan will be several hours of build time even if you know how it goes together. The same holds true of the infantry; Cadians are 5 parts while storm troopers are 10 each.
So my thoughts on it would be if you're primarily a gamer, GW's design approach is probably going to be more appealing. If you're a modeller, the variety and customization of the WGF-engineered kits are more likely to win out. In the case of Kingdom Death, I think the WGF approach is the superior option since the game is about individual characters and the variety and customization of the armor kit system is going to be very much appreciated as players tailor their survivors exactly how they want them. That said, the GW design approach to the monsters may not have gone amiss either, as those have much less variety during gameplay.If it had to be one or the other though, I'm glad it's going the way it did.

Seconded - I have a DFG Leviathan, and it was/is easy to pose.
I also have an Eldar Wraithknight. Even if you cut the locking tabs, it's a bear to pose - it was designed as a static model, so the joints have far less range of motion than they should. It is mind-boggling terrible how poorly the joints were designed.

Just got my package today. Panicked at first, because the packing slip was wrong, but the contents were correct.
The models I got (White Speaker and Kara Black) look fantastic. Casting quality seems to be excellent. There are a looooot of fiddly bits, but that was expected. They'll look great when assembled.
I will say, I didn't realize how big they were going to be. Both figures are going to be quite tall. Kara Black is head-and-shoulders taller than the Malifaux Guild Rifleman I compared her to. These are definitely at least 35mm scale. I honestly don't think they'll proxy into other systems well at all.

Also, I'm OK with the '35mm Scale' so long as all the Kingdom Death stuff scales well with itself!

Ask, and ye shall receive. I'm not much good at taking pics, but here's what I've assembled so far, not including the Watcher (it's about 1.5 times the height of one of the regular minis). Random Space Marine for scale purposes.
I guess it depends on what you plan to proxy them as in other systems. In 40K, for example, the standard squatting marine (pictured above) is 28mm. A marine standing fully upright is 32mm. And then Primarchs and other major characters can be even taller.

Thanks for the pics. Using the 25mm GW base for measuring the pinups, it looks like the KD:M figs are around 37mm to the eyes, and overall height of a pinup is something like to 42-43mm tall?

You obviously haven't put any of the figures I mentioned together if you are only referring to freebie Sigmarine as an example. Several of the AoS starter figures were definitely not beginner figures and one of the big complaints about the AoS starter box is that isn't geared towards entry level hobbyists. While an OTT model, the Khorne BSB is cut in such a way and with a number of pieces that give depth, space, and appearance of undercut that none of the KD models I have put together have come close to equaling. I am far more impressed with how organic figures are done by GW.
And as for variability, the Stormtroopers are no more variable then a standard space marine. Both have the same basic piece count at 10 each. It's been that way since the plastic space marines started coming out over 15 years ago. You can swap between all the chapters no problem.
Plus, all the posing you talk about isn't in any of the KD figures. If anything, you are making it sound like KD is a massive step down from WGF earlier works. All I can say to that is, it is not true. I will take a gorgeous single pose model over an average multi-pose model. The KD models are gorgeous and all I can imagine what awesome insanity could be done with the KD designs and GW's plastic technology.

I believe my post gives the nod to GW on mono-pose models so this really isn't a point we disagree on. GW has decided on a design approach that suits their vision and they are quite good at it now. I'm not sure how one could find fault with the engineering; only with the design approach itself which again boils down to the individual's priorities.

The point is not about part count, it's about how variable those parts are and how well the inter-operate. The Space Marine range is without a doubt GW's best offering in the multi-part realm for breadth of choice. However, they are not particularly versatile from a modelling perspective. Take your basic bolter marine. There's a finite number of things you can do with him, especially without bringing in multitudes of kits. With 2 DFG kits (stormtrooper + accessory), I can make a platoon with the sergeant giving tactical hand-signs, one fire-team clearly reacting to that with another preparing to be base-of-fire. Does that make one bit of difference in a game versus all the troopers in the same 3 poses? Not in the slightest which IMO is likely why GW doesn't prioritize it. From a modelling perspective though, being able to have a kit that tells a story without speaking a word is a huge asset. In a game like Kingdom Death, that element of story-telling IS the point of the miniatures, hence why I'm glad that they didn't crib from GW's notes when it came to the survivors.

To my knowledge, we've not seen the multi-part KD models in the wild (i.e. - the armor kits). The monopose models are monopose models. GW's design philosphy and practice gives them an edge on those, not their plastic technology. I know WGF employs slide-core tools for true undercuts on some of their sprues; I do not believe GW does (though they are again very skillful in compensating for this). I look forward to seeing what's possible with the armor kits to see if WGF was able to transfer the expertise of multi-part they demonstrated with DFG or if we get the "smooth back" disappointment on more than just the naked survivors.

If you go through the KD:M Updates, there are pictures of actual models, or at least proofs.
GW does OK on monopose models, but I wouldn't say GW has the edge, at least, not based on my experience with the WraithKnight. I would say that GW designs their models as monopose first, in that there are a relatively limited number of ways their kits go together for best appearance and posing.
GW used slides in the Baneblade secondary weapon barrels, but this is the exception that proves the rule.
The smooth backs are a gross oversight by Adam that I do not understand, given the attention to detail in other areas. Or maybe, in KD:M world, every day is chest day, but never a back day?

I'm no expert, especially cause none of my figures have arrived yet, but I get the feeling the flat back syndrome was a limitation of wanting to keep everything as modular as possible, including all the gigantic shoulder guards. I dont believe we heard any response about this from Adam, but it's my explanation. At least for now

I share this theory/hope.
Also JHDD, I know they armor kits are in the updates having drooled over them many a time, but I don't know that we've seen what's possible to do outside of the "studio." I have a feeling when the wider community get their hands on them we'll start to see how versatile the kits are (or not, though obviously I hope that's not the case). I look forward to seeing what people's creativity makes happen.

I can't imagine how flat backs improve modularity, as nothing attaches there. From what I recall, the armored and clothed models had no such restrictions on "flatness". Oh, well. It's not like I won't have other stuff to work in.

Tracking packages outside the US is generally a real pita... At least from what I know. Only way I can send stuff with tracking is if I dole out <$45 for the super special shipping.... Maybe its different for businesses, though. Or maybe thats the magic of the "International Consolidator"
Have you tried googling the tracking number? Occasionally it'll recognize it (like for UPS, USPS, and FedEx) and point you in the right direction.

No dice.
Googling "International Consolidator" does lead to a site that seems to be about international shipping, but no visible way of doing tracking.

So many games, so little time.
So many models, even less time.
Screw it, Netflix and chill. |

All i got in my email was "Your package will be delivered via International Consolidator" and a tracking number.
I can see mine here. http://www.trackitonline.ru just enter your your tracking number
The label was generated on the 2nd but it has yet to enter the postal system which seems to be normal based on what US backers have said

Agreed!
The "smooth back syndrome" has been, to date, the only real head scratching misstep.

@Alphy - FWIW, I got my Tracking number a few days before it went live. I doubt the holiday did anybody any favors. I think you'll have your stuff before long..
I hope so!
Well, I'll have it by tomorrow actually - time flies!

Same here. I'm assuming that it's because my wave one items include a few resin figures, not just plastic ones?
