completed Reaper Bones 4: Enthusiasm and Commentary Thread

Well, I have seen the mini that Mantic is releasing for the Shadow Hulk in Kings of War....

 

Makes me very glad that I added Nyarlathotep to my Bones IV pledge.

 

Now that's a shadow hulk....

I've been working with my Bones 3 backlog and just discovered that there's a mini from Bones 3 in the Bones 4 Core Set. Figure #5, the barbarian with sword and axe, was also a miniature in Bones 3's Core Set. Not something I'd expect from the "non-horde" miniatures, to say the least.

No.

 

They are not the same model.  They are similar.  We do not repeat models in our projects.

The barbarian and his brother. They're brobarians.

They are not just Brobarians, they are Demolition!

From memory: Axle and Smash were the original Demolition. And eventually they added Crush? Is that right? Axle was the guy on the left?

 

 

EDIT: SO close. Ax. Ax was his name.

Fair enough. My mistake. They are super similar, though. Almost the exact same weapons, belt buckles, haircuts, and outfits. They are startlingly similar. I'm a little surprised that they decided to make such similar figures so close together.

At least those guys are in different poses, with different weapons and armor.

Well, looking at their belt buckles, those two are at least from the same tribe if they aren't  brothers.

Then again, the Tre Manor orcs are also very similar. The new ones in Bones 2 were basically weapon swaps.

Maybe it is just adventuring attire and evening wear for the same barbarian...
