We are now sculpting the 3ups for the first AoW plastic regiment sets!

[...]

I am sorry I can't say right now which is the first race we are working on. Creating plastic minis means a pretty big investment (at least for AoW), so we have to be careful and not unveil which minis are we working on until we are much closer to release date.

What I can say though is that the plastic sets will be boxed, containing multi-component plastic frames (high-impact polystyrene, same as Perrys, GW or Mantic) to put together 16 or more troopers (depending on the type of regiment). All that together with the style and look that characterizes AoW miniatures!

Heroes are often different enough from each other to avoid looking like GW's own line, however Regiments are a different matter all together. The question is; will they evolve from being a cookie cutter GW knock off company and come up with their own stuff. Will they become Mantic or will they become Gamezone.

Really? So why does he have... ya know... his own rulebook? I think that the similarities make them fit into a nice niche as he grows his own system, but I don't honestly think he was marketing them specifically as WHFB heroes.
