Does anyone have any experience of them?
Particularly interested in the quality and how they rank with "true scale" 28mm miniatures?
Cheers all!

They're real good for scale. Basically warhammer rippoffs, so great for us lol. Quality is low - the weapons for my Dwarfs were unusable, so I had to use the spare GW bits I had, which ties them in better anyway    |

So if they're straight(ish) rip offs, scale wise are they more to the heroic scale? Would they fit with Perry or Warlord humans for example, do you think? |

Yeah, more the heroic s ale I'd say.
What strand/flavour of humans do you have?
I think they may be a bit noticeably different in scale to Perry stuff.
I'll see if I have any Perry/'Human MOM or Norba' stuff

So I've got a load of 17th century pike and shot that I'm putting together for an English civil war army so I thought I could use them as Tilean Dogs of War. I've a lot of musket and cavalry with pistols and swords which could dual as fast cav. Plan was to add some characters like wizards etc and some heavy cav to balance out the 20odd Bret cav I have (backstory for the Brets in progress). |

Here's what I got... Bret Bowman, MOM Dwarf Short, MOM Dwarf Tall, Norba Bret Foot Knight, Perry Norman, Bret KotR.   Bear in mind that Bret knights are quite large when compared to Empire knights! |

Smashing cheers bud!
Yeah the later Bret knights seem to be all out of proportion. I'll try the MOM heavy cav options out as I think they should work as they'll be in a unit of their own and I won't be looking to mix miniatures.

I’ve also used mom and not had any issues with the company (unlike Norba). As mentioned above, the resin quality is on the low end and model detail is quite basic but they are also very cheap. They are not bad and I’d buy from them again.
If you want a bretonnian knight that is smaller, the 5th edition knights that came in that starter box are of a smaller scale and closer to the size of Perry miniatures (or Fireforge). It might be because the Perry’s did the GW Bret’s in that edition.

We also need to arrange our comp game! How does new year sound now? |
