Billdask's sent me a package but I still need to acquire some others. Understand that they won't be cheap but still don't want to pay too much for them as that only drives the price up for others.


On the other hand, this Frozen Horror is currently at GBP 42.00 :shock:

On the FH? It's a double-wide base?

Optical illusion? FH is a big guy, and without anything to compare it to you lose the sense of scale in that picture. Try this:

TMU is right, the frozen horror's base isn't in fact double the size of a regular HQ base. It's significantly smaller. Especially in width.

It doesn't need to be any larger, maybe? The giant wolf needs the leverage to balance out the top of the mini

FH base is 1½ x ¾ compared to a single square mini. It is very strange. I expect the original intent was to make it 2 x 1, but the miniature was too big and they scaled it down. But that's just speculation. Who really knows?
