The main issue I've had so far is that the plastic is very slick and light. I drop far more little parts (the GEV engines especially) than I do with metal miniatures. On the other hand, getting 2 (!) Ogres, 28 tanks and howitzers, a command post and 42 infantry for $40 is a RIDICULOUSLY good deal. So I'll just reinstall the light under my game table and risk it.
I intend to paint the first batch this weekend. They're assembled and mounted on paint holders. Assuming that they come out OK, I'll post them on
www.texaswargamer.com when done, along with a step by step tutorial.
