As an incentive to another blogger I built these GB plastic Vikings for an new Impetus army. He knows who he is and he is not getting them until another Impetus project is finished. Deus Voult
The minis are very nice but I found that certain arms fit a lot better on some bodies than others, especially when the shields are fitted.
There are lots of spare weapons, some modelled with hands so you can change weapons about, a nice touch, and plenty of different heads. You can't model them all with spears though as there are not enough spear arms for every model, same for sword scabbards. The horns are on the large side for me and I would trim them down to the top of the bracket holding the rope. 4 very nice flags are provided but no dedicated standard bearer, so you have to do a bit of cutting and drilling of spearmen hands if you want taller flag poles.
Still a very nice offering IMO and I may even get a box or 2.

oooohhh!!! These are nice!!! You are the king of the plastic building.
Youa are the discipline I'm missing in my hobby!
Cheers and thanks.
I was hoping to see someone post about these particular vikings. They look very promising indeed! In terms of spears, you could always replace weapons with brass spears.
Thanks a bunch!
Foss,
Never had any problems with the stuff that Perry or GB produce breaking and I've got loads and dropped quite a few. The minis are so light if dropped the base always takes the hit unlike metals.
Victrix tho do have a habit of breaking especially where bayonets are concened.
Hi, Just returned here to remind you about Mobile Monopoly. This is a great technique and WILL make you money, especially seeing as you own a website. Take a quick look at their video, the system is about using Mobile Advertising which is brand new and an unexposed marketplace where you can make thousands by doing hardly any work. I assure you that after you watch their short video it will change you and it will start making you think. http://mobile-mastermind.com
