Drydock Figures 1/72 and 1/96 Scale - Review

[Loracs]

I love populating my models with at scale figures. It adds life and a sense of realism. The first time was with figures at 1/64 for Revenge, which I liked and enjoyed painting.

When I saw Drydock advertised that they released various scale figures in a pack of 19... I just could not refrain from ordering a set in 1/72 and 1/96 scale. After great anticipation, I received my parcel a 1 hour ago.

My first impression was... what is that! Is that it? What a disappointment... maybe my expectations were too high but frankly at those scales it is a hard sell. The size is just too small and lack resolution/definition at 1/96. The 1/72 barely pass the bar. Drydock is a reputable distributer and is not at fault, but the person/company making those should reconsider selling at those scales. They will just create disappointment. I just feel I was ripped off at the current price point (I may be a little harsh here - disappointment speaking?).

I would recommend avoiding... at least at those scales.

1/72 scale (20-25 mm)



1/96 scale (15-20 mm)

Are they so bad ? From pictures they look decent. I had seen worse for more money.

Saw this today. Might be of interest !

First time I get 3D printed... usually buying casted. Maybe it is my expectations... but I'm usually generous and realistic. BTW the pictures are taking very close.

Where did you get them from? Can you provide a link?
