Anyone messed around with Caesar Fantasy Figures? The are 1/72 scale (seems 23mm), plastic, and come in a variety of figs:

Would they make a nice time filler before the Bones come?

Cheers!

They aren't bad figs for what they are, but aren't anywhere near the quality of BOnes. Also, the scale is completely different. When seen in person, they are actually about half the size of bones figs.

They don't have the length or the girth!

I feel like a complete chump, but since I've never bought minis before, or even painted a mini, I actually broke out my copy of Castle Ravenloft the board game and painted the entire set over the weekend with my girlfriend and our friend. Many of them were surprisingly high quality figures (except the player minis, those were just too small and dainty). If you're looking for some cheap starter minis in plastic, I recommend buying Legend of Drizzt, Wrath of Ashardalon or Castle Ravenloft. You get like 40-42 figures (depending on the game) for 40-50 dollars, plus they include a ton of different game scenarios for some fun, simple gameplay.

If you'd like, I could post a few of the pics all painted up, so you can see what they look like

I started a thread over in the Show Off section. I didn't take pics of everything I painted, just a few (bad) photos.

Those figs look fantastic! I guess you learned a thing or two while pressing F5!
