Very nice.
whats that?, plastic/resin models with no casting issues? they’re the same price as when they were metal models but you get double the amount in the box? …….. well played Mantic, well played.
Unfair, the resin Mantic use could never achieve the quality of Finecast (when it’s sold as it’s meant to be). I have Mantic resin, it’s good and it more or less the quality of metal, so long as the metal is nothing too complex, and they aren’t up to the standard of Finecast (when, I have to say again, it arrives in your hands the way it’s meant to, not when it’s defective which is often).

I’ve got some of these. Very happy with the material, which basically has the same feel to it as plastic, but unlike plastic can have undercuts, so the sculpt quality is just as good as metal.

It would be awesome if mantic could do them in a transparent/translucent resin…
Look nice – BTW the sword is a Flamberge style:
wiki cut n paste-The term flamberge, meaning “flame blade”, is an undulating blade
The weapon getting stuck comment reminded me of terminator two, when his berretta get’s stick in the gate as robert patrick passes through it
What can I say, there lovely, got 5 painted and bought another 10
My money is where my mouth is.
