These miniatures are cast in resin or metal or both? If both, how do you tell which is which?

I've looked at listings for Ito Mamushi on various store sites, as well as the company's own store site, and nowhere does anyone tell you what material the sculpt is cast in.

I'm used to their general model releases being metal, but I see where the style of descriptions changed for the releases so it's harder to tell. Also reminds me I need to hurry up and paint my Ito so I can catch up on releases.

Weird, I thought they listed the material on their webstore. I've definitely seen new releases be either resin or metal, though for anything that chunky I would assume resin.

Did some digging on their Discord and Ito Mamushi is metal; seems most individual miniature releases are metal and resin is showing up in the 'bigger' boxes.

Yeah, the only resin I've gotten has been stuff in boxed sets (of which I'm still woefully behind on painting).

The two Kitsune singles are both entirely resin.

Stabbity Stab:

Looks like some wires got crossed at GCT studios as around when this months sneak peak picture got posted, the models were available for pre-order.

Sneak Peak


Which ended up being Tatsuo for Prefecture of Ryu


Tsuta for Savage Wave (possible Blood Bowl conversion?) noted that it's resin


Hotene for The Descension


Sakaguchi for Ito Clan


Kaiyō & Mangetsu for Temple of Ro-Kan


Ashigaru of the Peaks for Minimoto Clan


They also made the models from the two player set available for individual purchase.

I do enjoy painting there minis, and I want these.

These models will be available to preorder in the coming weeks...
