My first batch of Elysian's arrived this morning. They are the normal
squads, the first ones that FW posted a couple of weeks ago.
They are excellent. I ordered two of the squads one with grav packs, one
without. The quality of the models is amazing. They have excellent small
details, and are much better proportioned than a cadian. They are well cast
too, I've looked over all the bits and there are no thin bits or breakages.
The parts come on sprues, and the elysians assemble similarly to the cadian
models, but have separate shoulderpads, and separate bits of gear. There is
a good variation of parts. There are 13 sprues per squad, or 15 if you get
them with grav packs. There is a instruction sheet with them showing all
the parts you get and with pictures of different part combinations, parts
numbered and lettered, and advice on which part combinations work together
well.
I really want to do a (small) Elysian army now, having received these and
having recently got a large bonus at work! I have already ordered some of
the special/heavy weapon and command squads that are coming out in March and
April, and am really tempted to get more squads. I'd like to do an army of
them mostly without back packs, but with a couple of squads with backpacks
looking like they have just landed.
