Alternative IG/Astra Militarum models

[sparti67]

DKK are very expensive unless you want to go the black market route, so I found this on the Foundry Miniature website. Thinking about using them as a home version of IG/AM. They remind me of the Vostroyan. If you were a TO would you allow them on the table? I think in most local brick and mortar people would accept them. Let me know community.

Why not use these guys: http://www.wargamesfactory.com/webstore/alien-suns/shock-troops-sci-fi-greatcoat-troopers, you can also swap arms with GW-models without problems.

I do like those miniatures, but they don't have the WWI flavor that the DKK have. I was looking for something more nostalgic.

The problem with the Wargames Foundry figures is they are more expensive and not being 'Heroic' scale, they will look smaller next to other GW figures. £12.00 is a bit over $20.00 for 5 metal minis, where the shock troopers are $22.00 for 10 plastic guys which would be easier to pose/customize. Plus they also sell an guard style heavy weapons set as well.

If you are looking to put the army together cheap you are best using Cadians, they are readily available on eBay and they have all the weapon options you will need.
