Finally some sprue pictures of Defiance Games

Hi, I've finally found some sprue pictures of the USMC Marines on the internet! Defiance Games has failed to deliver these miniatures in time and has postphoned the release of them for several months. Everybody which has pre order these miniatures will hopefully receive these miniatures in the near future as these sample sprues have already been send to american based reviewers.

If we take a look at the sprues, I must say they are filled to the brim with all sorts of weaponry and heads. It seems that there is no wasted space on the sprues which is nice as I really hate all the excessive plastic the guys at Wargames Factory use for their "mini" sprues. The added bases are also a nice touch as you can never have enough of them.
I also found a picture of some miniatures assembled with blue tac, they don't look to shabby but the details aren't quite defined as I had liked. To make clear I have not received these miniatures so I can really comment on the quality. The look of these miniatures is nice as they could be used for tons of scifi settings do I somebody say starship troopers?


Edit: It seems that the assembled miniatures are made out of the test sprues and that the final product will be more detailled.

So that's all for now!

Greets,

Those bottom pictures are from the test sprues and not the final. The final plastic has much better detail.
