Oi. Ugly miniatures. Then again we don't use miniatures when playing RPGs around here so it's really not a big deal.
Not to mention I just ordered the Centauri, EA, and League fact books as well as Darkness and Light. I don't have any cash left for miniatures even if they were good ones. :lol: Luckily these aren't.

A Kosh II would have been nice- I am surprised that with 6 Vorlon models they could n't do a Kosh II.Greg Smith said:
From memory we have only seen 3 Vorlons on screen so it would have been nice for all 3 to have featured in this set. It is not as if Mongoose will ever be doing a second Vorlon box set.
Maybe will just have to paint one of the 6 in appropriate colour scheme to be Kosh II?

If you were joking then ignore this comment but if not.....
You are not being punished. Babylon 5 is not the only area of life that suffers from inferior merchandise.
You want B5 minis of a certain quality or aesthetic pleasure, only buy those ones that meet your criteria, either the company in question will catch on, or they'll go out of buisiness. ewither way you either stop being 'punished' wwith bad minis or you get good ones. Win/win.
You may not like the arguement, but it is true, if you don't like it don't buy it. Feel free to let the company know what and why you don't like it, but noone, I hope, has you at gunpoint to buy stuff you don't like.

going slightly off the topic of minis and onto Vorlons themsleves there is one other big piece of evicence for them having physical bodies. In the pilot episode Kosh is POISONED by a contact skin tab (and its specified as a chemical poison not some wierd disruptive energy). That implies that Vorlons DO have physical biological bodies. Perhaps they can shift it to a sort of enerygry like state or break off their consciousness but they ARE physical beings at haert.
As to the miniatures, sure theyre a little on thin side but I quite like them personally. I don't play the RPG at the moment but if I did I'd probably buy them just for the sake of HAVING some Vorlons (though frankly I dont know WHAT sort of pary you would have to be playing to need 6 Volrons! (We tend to only use miniatures for combat in our RPGs and ONE Vorlon is pretty much a death sentence to anything short of shadows. 6 is just insane

The problem is there are only have so many chances for Babylon 5 miniatures. The first ones, from Harlequin, are pushing 10 years old, and they were lousy. Now we have Mongoose setting the bar even lower. How long do I have to wait for Babylon 5 miniatures that aren't embarrassing?
