I'm also pleased to announce that I'll be starting a Pendraken chaotic fantasy battle force. I'm lost.
I'm joining kerath and nik! You can be sure that it won't be long after release that you'll be seeing these in a game of MAYHEM. ;) Fantastic work barbarian!

God damn those are some nice 10mm fantasy figures. When will they be available for the buying?

Leon

We're not sure at the moment.  The figures have arrived here, but they are a little small compared to the other Fantasy ranges.  We'd be interested to hear what people think?

I like them, but they are a bit smaller than I was expecting!  :o

I'm sure they'll be lovely ranked up together with a good paintjob though!

They do look a touch small - but they do look very nice and detailed.

The fantasy range is rather big - so comparison with the human ranges is probably more appropriate.

Bummer but it wouldn't put me off buying them as they are lovely models.

One solution - Barbarian to resculpt the entire fantasy range  :D

Chaos Knights on heavy armour are taller and wider than average human. They are too small for me. I won't buy them in that size.

Yep - 'fraid so  :(

At this size, these would look positively daft alongside my Wood Elves & Gobbos...

They are indeed to small.

No possibility to cast em up and sell as chaos dwarfs? Or are they too thin for that?

Edmund2011

I would buy them without doubt  :)

I use a lot of Historic range figures, and can mix well for me.

Fantasy figures are bigger, but painted over the game table can work. In fact I mix them with historical for gaming....  ;)

petercooman

I  see only one possible solution, revamp the entire fantasy range to 'real' 10 mm scale :D

Various things to consider :
-The integrated bases are much thinner on my models. (The orc would be the average same heigh as my warriors).
-The range is consistent.
-They are taller than humans of a well known brand.

The only historical minis I own from Pendraken are Late Romans, and the Warriors are a bit taller (but thinner) than this range.

Great sculpts but WAY too small.

I'd wouldn't buy them.

Shame really they looked really promising.   :(
