I really like Mantics Orcs, although I have to agree with what I've read elsewhere that a few of their weapons do appear somewhat oversized... A trait which I don't particularily care for.
Didn't stop me from placing orders for a couple of the various army deals though. By next month I'll have over 250 of the green beasties.

Agree, the axes look a bit too big for Mantic models. But aside from that, they are pretty cool looking. I'm looking forward to receiving them so I have a bit more head variety with my horde. I won't quite be able to match 250, but 150 is still a decent number of orcs. And Darsc, you going with green? I am definitely leaning toward finding a colour besides green for the skin of my orcs as a few others have.

I've not picked these up yet. Maybe that's what I'll spend my voucher on for the painting comp at the open day I've got a massive greenskin army already (GW). The mantic models are only making it larger still. Greenskins ftw!

I am definitely leaning toward finding a colour besides green for the skin of my orcs as a few others have. I'm not sure yet. I like my armies to "pop" a bit and stand out on the table. Whether that will be through the skin colour or the tunic/armour colour is something I haven't decidied on.
