Kit Check - Samurai Warriors - Fireforge

28mm plastic miniatures from Fireforge. In this video I'll be exclusively looking at the Samurai Warriors, with sprues from the other box sets to be showcased later on.

Like that 28mm Heroic style Samurai exist now, will go well with Clan War stuff I think.

[@philRminiatures]

Superb details on these minis!!

[@thelastbattalion3509]

They’re very nice.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

They do look so nice

[@thelastbattalion3509]

The aesthetic of them is really good.

[@blktom]

I guess the issue I would have with the figs is that I would want something like 6 studded helmets to make them look more uniform for rank and file samurai, with a leader type with a different helmet. I also wish they had bows as a option.

[@thelastbattalion3509]

Yes you might be a little bit limited by that factor. They do have bows as an option - see the 'Samurai Shooters' box instead.

[@mobileandhostile7895]

Helpful review - thanks 👍

[@thelastbattalion3509]

You’re welcome, glad it was of use.

[@paulbenson9015]

Very Nice!!! Resist Resist Resist!👍

[@thelastbattalion3509]

Just try a few…

[@paulbenson9015]

No I'm afraid I can't be doin that...🤫 got boxes of 15mm downstairs. Just love Samurai. Thanks for sharing this👍

[@andyshaw5378]

Nice video, honest review. Can you buy a body only spru 🤔

[@thelastbattalion3509]

Thanks, not immediately but it’s likely as more are produced and get into circulation it will become possible.

[@LegionMiniatureGames]

Are they on 20mm bases?

[@thelastbattalion3509]

25mm

[@charliereedie6803]

I got a box of these but I cant get the spear arms to line up at the wrist properly

[@thelastbattalion3509]

Yes that can happen, I found I had to trim a little off the torso and/or the arm to change the angle to help them fit together.

[@IanSpayde]

How do these compare in size to GW? I would love to use these parts for some kitbashes.

[@thelastbattalion3509]

I couldn't answer that with any degree of accuracy I'm afraid.

[@tomaszmankowski9103]

I have the models and I certainly agree they are really nice. I don't think there is a box in the series I don't like - cavalry is great, Ashigaru are superb. I am very happy that Fireforge managed to crowdfund the projest. It was not a complete success because 'warrior monk tier' was not reached, but Warlord models are a bit too complicated and dated and the Fireforge Samurai Wars plastics are excellent to build sizable armies from the Sengoku period and the rest of Samurai wars including the invasion of Korea. Take care!

[@thelastbattalion3509]

This is a very good summary, much more eloquently out than my improvised ramblings.
