The Wargames Factory plastics are $15.99 for 32 soldiers. That&#8217;s 50 cents each. However, they take about an hour to assemble 4 minis. Body, both arms, head and weapon are all separate. The Warhammer kit was $35 (cheaper on Amazon) for 16 minis, plus a bunch of extras &#8211; wood stake and chain defensive emplacement, bases, dog, a really nice flag, a beer keg, various decals, etc.<\/p>\n<p>That still comes out to $2+ per mini. However, most of them are body + head, so WAY less assembly. Also, the quality is just so much better.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a comparison pic. The glue is still wet on the Warhammer minis.
