    Cool. What did you use for carpet and stone?

    I've gotta stop looking at reviews drooling over these guys. This could get addicting real fast.

    Whoah, that's terrific! Very well done! Nice and monolithic. Love the carpet, and the way it runs down and in front of the throne.

    Thanks everyone for the comments!...

    The throne itself is built from scrap lumber I had in my garage and painted with acrylic paints to resemble marble as best I could...the carpet is red felt painted up to look old and dingy...

    Once I get Gorgo, his red imp (time keeper) and four blood knights in hand I'll post some updated pics...

    Got my ML shipment in at lunch, and was only able to open Asterionn.

    Disappointed.

    The right hand came loose in the packaging, and falls out of the socket with the slightest movement. The hips are seriously loose. He can stand, but with a minimal shake his legs are flopping all over the place. I stood him on the tile counter, and it was difficult to get him to stand because the legs wouldn't stay in place.

    Use nail polish or acrylic clear coat on the joints...this should fix the hand...the hips may need a square of tape placed over the joints...this is what I did for my knight's waist...

    I know it sucks having to "fix" a new figure but at least it's better than having to repair one that breaks...

    Oof, that doesn't sound good! Sorry! I hope the others in there turn out better.

    My shipment should arrive sometime next week. I'll post any issues I might encounter.

    Also, Gorgo looks way better with Thord's horns.

    That look fantastic. I've only got 4 more coming, but the wait is exquisite.

    Guys, how's the QC on these figures? Are they durable and not fragile? I was so out of the loop that I didn't know these were 6 inch or 1/12 scale!

    I was late too, I have one knight Galeron or something? The quality is quite good nice paint, smooth joints not over tight, a lot of soft rubber armor. I am waiting for the all star or hits release or whatever they are calling it. Trying to pick up late is a waste of time these are absolutely worth $35 or $40 but if you are paying $50-100 you are getting fucked they are not worthy the secondary market prices right now.

    Got mine on Friday. These guys are really excellent. Only complaints are the capes don't seem to have a good way to go on, and the poles in the weapon sets don't match either of the toppers. Poles are gold, one topper is gray and one is wood. I might spray paint one, it's very close to the gun metal spray I have.

    Yeah, the secondary market prices for these are insane! I have to be extremely selective with this line but some of the figures look extremely sweet like that greek/roman hybrid figure. I like the designs of the knights but unless we get horse and dragons...I'll pass up on them.

    Looks like the Store Horsemen preorders from May should be shipping in the next couple of weeks. Super excited to finally get my hands on these.

    They're also teasing the 1.75 figures.

    4H just sent pics of Templar Knight Legion builder kit as well as their leader Sir Godfrey to backers. Gotta have these for Crusader armies! There will also be a more generic Knight Legion Builder Kit coming as well.
