My thoughts on the Vampires And Slayers miniatures

Crooked Dice, makers of the 7TV miniatures lines of absolutely not geek TV and film characters, having spent years in the 60s and especially the 70s and then advanced to the 80s with a couple of waves are now onto the late 90s after just one early 90s release. (I assume the 2000s will get one wave and the 2010s will be announced before they all come out.)

This new wave, Kickstarting soon, is Vampires And Slayers.

I was expecting something like this for a while now.

CD have a few designers with different styles. Some I really like, most of them leaning towards “true scale” with realistic proportions. (Like the official Buffy miniatures for the Unmatched skirmish game.) But others are in more traditional “heroic scale”, big heads and hands and dumpy bodies. These are “heroic scale”.

To the extent that they look like they're being viewed through a fisheye lens.

They probably look okay in actual barely an inch high size but, urgh, disappointed.

I wonder if you could edit the STL files to make them look more people-shaped.

Oh well. Saves me some money.
