Reaper Bones Goblins (6)

I ordered this after I decided to start DMing a D&D 5ed game for my family. For this price getting 6 generic figures was too good to pass up. They arrived with the rest of my order right on time. First I was shocked to find out that it was a pack of 2 groups of 3. I'm not upset that you get duplicates but was not expecting them to be connected. A shock but not that big of a deal. Used a craft knife to cut them off then shave off the stub until it's flat. They stand up fine.One warning. These are a SOFT plastic so they bend like crazy. If any arms/weapons whatever are out of shape just heat it up with hot water or a hair dryer and slightly over correct it. Goes back into shape just fine.The detail on these are not bad at all. Some little artifacts here and there to trim off (club guys shoulder) but other than a small spot on the spear guys arm all the seams lines are spot on.Overall love these and can't wait to paint them.Update: Sept 18, 2018So I went to start painting these and found a bit of an issue that I’m knocking a star off for. Two of the three poses has an attached arm. I’m going to need the putty to fill this in. One of the spear guys looks like it wasn’t attached properly and it has massive gaps with some whiteish crusty foam, messed up glue maybe? I was able to scrape the gunk away easy but it’s going to need putty for sure to fill that gap. Added two pictures to show you what I mean. Also adding a picture of them next to other minis so you can see the size comparison. Nice to see the size is smaller!Update 2: So after my last post I went to go trim up the two archers since they didn’t need putty when I realized that one of the two has some serious issues. Looks like something went wrong with the molding process because it’s got extra bumps, the thumb is a massive blocky L shape and has no definition at all. Maybe that’s why these are so cheap? Not sure if these are reject batches or I just got a bad batch. Still going to use them but not going to worry too much about detail with some of these.

Excellent product for about $1 each. They show up attached as 2 sets of 3 different characters on sprues. Keeping them attached to the sprues really helps when painting. The plastic is flexible so they are not brittle and it needs no primer. I'd say they have 8 out of 10 on quality details, I think the bases are better than the flat disks that come under other brands. My opinion is they are 10 out of 10 as far as size; as small as other brand goblins or children, about 60% the size of standard 28mm humanoid minis.I purchased a total of 12 goblins (2 packages); in my campaigns, goblins are like subterranean ants. They like caves and caverns and don't like light. They are opportunists, they will take over existing abandoned mines and caves. These little guys tactical strategy is to swarm their enemies and subdue them with bone weapons and mushroom powders. Since they are not friendly to humanoids, their trade economy is build on mushrooms, bones, lumber and rope but not metals.

I really like Reaper miniatures, but this time the plastic seems really flimsy. If I even so much as pick these goblins up, the bend in the hand to the point that I'm afraid they'll break.

While the details might not be as sharp as on other miniatures, they are still cool. And I love that I got six minis in one pack. I now have a squad of trouble makers!

I bought these to use as goblins.They are very gobliny.Instead, I painted them to look like ghosts and they were pretty epic.Your mom seemed to like them on Saturday on game night.

The quality is pretty good, some defects, and a little muddled in some of the design, but nothing too horrible. But my goodness how bendable these are, I bet I could launch these boys and break a window, thats the sturdiness I like.

They ooze personality. Not only are they the perfect scale but the attention to detail is flawless. Seriously, Reaper more than delivered.As someone whose collection mostly comes from collecting the (awesome) board games but whose experience comes from rolling 5e, I can say these are perfect ... they make for good decor too heh

Models came a bit deformed which was expected. Using hot and cold water to repose them did work. I was not expecting the plastic to be so rubbery and flexible on their own. I absolute recommend priming these models first or basic acrylic paints will rub off with a little friction. Other then that these are great models for the price. I would absolutely buy these again. I would give this a 4.5 star if I could.

An OK cheap alternative to the solid plastic miniatures. The plastic they are made from is bendy and you might find that some of your pieces are warped. As some people have commented they also lack a lot of finer features that the solid plastic minis have. They're OK, but I'll probably stick to the hard plastic minis from now on.

One of the legs on was snapped out of the box and all of them look like the cast was not correctly aligned while making, low detail level as well.
